Premiership princess: Corrie's Helen Flanagan arrives at the City of Manchester stadium to watch her boyfriend Scott Sinclair play for Swansea against the home side


During last season's Championship play-off game she was turned away when the security guards didn't recognise her.

But things have changed for Helen Flanagan who yesterday had no problem getting in to see her footballer boyfriend play.

The Coronation Street actress was given the VIP treatment at the City of Manchester stadium as she arrived to see Swansea's Scott Sinclair and his team take on the home side in their first game of the new Premiership season.


Helen, 21, was snapped in the reception area of Manchester City's stadium waiting to be ushered inside the ground.

She looked every inch the glamorous WAG from her cream coat with a fur-lined collar to her skinny jeans and towering nude heels.

And she looked delighted to be treated like the fully-fledged WAG that she now is as she was greeted warmly by female staff.

Helen has been dating Swansea's Sinclair for almost a year after they met while the striker was on loan to Wigan from Chelsea and was living in Manchester.

However, any WAG worth their salt will have at least some knowledge of the beautiful game, and after Helen's Twitter comments about the match, she would do well to brush up on hers.

Helen, who plays Rosie Webster in the soap, watched as the Welsh side were thrashed 4-0 by City, but it would appear that she was watching a different game entirely.

She wrote: 'Swansea really were amazing tonight. The first half we were totally having Man City.

'Seeing as we played the richest team we did unbelivable (sic). One thing I can defo say is Swansea are in the premier to stay.'

Comments which prompted one Tweeter to ask: 'You lost 4-0 were u watching the same game?'

Whatever opinions she had on the match, at least she was able to watch it without any hassle this time.

In June, she arrived at Wembley to watch Sinclair play for Swansea in the Championship play off against Reading.

She left the stadium during the match but when she tried to get back in, staff supervisors didn’t recognise her and she was refused entry.

But some Corrie fans stepped up to defend her and after convincing staff she was who she said she was, they eventually escorted her back in and she managed to catch the end of the match, during which her boyfriend scored a hat-trick that has sent Swansea into the Premier League.
