Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan)

There will be no Rovers Return for Helen Flanagan after Corrie bosses last night ended hopes of her ever making a comeback to the show.

Soap chiefs did not kill off popular character Rosie Webster when the 22-year-old quit in February last year, leaving the door open for a return in the future.

But that has now been slammed shut after Helen suggested the award-winning ITV1 show was to blame for her depression.

A Coronation Street source revealed: “There was a lot of disappointment on the set when Helen came out and said what she did, especially as people looked after her on the show.

“Her character was very popular and there was a genuine feeling that she could return one day. But that’s not going to happen now.”

Speaking this week, the actress, who lives with Man City star Scott Sinclair, 23, insisted that some of Rosie’s storylines left her struggling to cope.

She said: “When I was about 16, all these storylines suddenly happened with Rosie doing sexy scenes.

“My character changed the minute I grew breasts. I went overnight from a 32AA to a 32E and at times I struggled with it.

"I was willing to do the scenes because it seemed like fun. But it also felt weird because my family are very strict.

"Rosie may have been very promiscuous, but I was the complete opposite.”

The I’m A Celebrity... beauty added: “I did one really sexy scene with loads of dialogue.

"I struggled with the words, wearing a bra and knickers and felt very self-conscious. I was going through bad depression and it was too much pressure – I burst into tears.

“I think people thought I was a drama queen, but I was depressed.”

A Corrie spokesman said: “We’ve had no discussions about bringing back Helen’s character.”

Sunday Mirror

Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has revealed that she is not ruling out a return to the cobbles.

The actress told Bang Showbiz that she would like her character Rosie Webster to head back to Weatherfield with a baby in a surprise storyline twist.

Flanagan commented: "You can never say never. Who knows what will happen in the future? I love Coronation Street. I was on the show for 12 years and was fortunate enough not to be killed off on the show, so there's always a chance of going back."

She continued: "I would like Rosie to come back with a bang. She's been away in London doing modelling so she probably thinks she's a bit above everyone.

"But I'd like to see her back with Jason, or it would be great if she came back with a baby. I'd love that."

Flanagan added that show bosses should also bring back Kevin Kennedy's popular character Curly Watts following recent press speculation.

She said: "It would be great if Curly Watts came back!"

Rosie split from Jason and left Weatherfield in February 2012 after Flanagan decided to bow out from the role.

CORONATION STREET BOSSES ARE PLOTTING HER 'SENSATIONAL' COMEBACK TO THE COBBLES

Helen Flanagan is at the centre of comeback talks on Coronation Street.

Bosses are hoping that they can bag the actress, as well as Michael Le Vall, to create an "amazing" storyline to put an end to the recent rumours of the "curse of Corrie".

Their plan would see the return of Kevin and Rosie Webster in Weatherfield. An insider told The Daily Star, "The Websters are one of our strongest families. Having them all back together will be popular with the fans and show our faith in Michael and Helen."

However, both actors have had a rocky time in recent months.

Helen, who quit the show in February 2012 to pursue other projects, hit the headlines after the breakdown of her romance with Manchester City player, Scott Sinclair. Michael faces trial next month over child sex offences which bosses hope will be cleared so that he can return to work on the soap.

The insider continued, "Returning to Corrie could give Michael and Helen the stability they need."

It’s a girl! Helen Flanagan and Scott Sinclair welcome beautiful baby Matilda Jessica and share first photos
The couple have shared gorgeous photos of their bundle of joy
Helen Flanagan and Scott Sinclair are now parents to a beautiful baby girl.
The couple, who left the sex of their baby a surprise until her arrival, have now shared pictures of the tiny tot on their social networks as well as announcing her name.
Helen and her footballer beau have called her Matilda Jessica. How cute.
The couple shunned a fancy magazine deal to share the first photos of their daughter by both posting shots of the family on their pages.
Scott described Matilda's birth as the 'best day', as he captioned a beautiful selfie with Helen holding their little girl: "Best day of my life welcome to the world Matilda Jessica Sinclair", along with love heart emojis.
In another photo, posted by Helen, Matilda wearing a cute little yellow babygro which was emblazoned with the message: “Apple of my mummy’s eye”.
She captioned the photo: "Matilda Jessica Sinclair my beautiful little girl x"
In another intimate photo, the newborn could be seen getting a lot of skin contact with her daddy as he held her while topless. Helen captioned the bonding photo: "The man I love and our world".
While recovering in the hospital, new mum Helen took a selfie as she held her new bundle of joy, captioning the photo: "My everything".
The former Coronation Street beauty, who was nearly a fortnight past her due date, is reportedly recovering in a hospital in Birmingham after giving birth on Monday.
According to The Sun, one pal sent their best wishes, saying: "Helen gave birth on Monday in Birmingham and she is still there recovering. It is hoped that she'll be back home in a day or so.
"It is very exciting for them and both of their families."
The 24-year-old model and actress was expected to give birth in mid-June and doctors decided to induce her in the past few days.
Her friend revealed Helen was hoping to have the baby naturally but the doctors decided it was for the best, adding that she is "exhausted but doing well."
A few months ago the star said she was the "happiest I've ever been" with Aston Villa player Scott and revealed the pair plan to tie the knot soon.
She said: "We'll definitely get married at some point. Scott knows what type of ring I want — one with a huge rock on it.
The couple have been keeping themselves occupied while waiting for the baby to arrive and Helen shared a snap of them playing Monopoly, writing: "Playing Monopoly ‪#‎waitingforbaby‬ ‪#‎geeks‬."

Actress Helen Flanagan is to reprise the role she made famous and will begin filming at the end of the year. She will be on screen until the Spring.

Viewers will first see Rosie in February. She surprises her parents when she arrives back to visit them with sister Sophie who’s returning from their trip to Miami.

Rosie left Weatherfield to star in a reality TV Show in February 2012, viewers have seen mum Sally go to visit her on numerous occasions but she has never come home - until now!

Storyline details are being kept under wraps but one thing is certain - Rosie’s visit to see her family won’t be uneventful.

Coronation Street Producer Kate Oates said:

“The Websters have missed Rosie and so have we. With Sophie away on holiday with her sister it seemed like the ideal time to bring Rosie back home with her for a visit.

"We are delighted that Helen is as keen explore what Rosie has been up to away from the cobbles as we are.”

Helen Flanagan said:

“I'm so excited to be returning to Coronation Street and being part of the Webster family again.”
