Helen Flanagan had an awkward experience when she introduced her new boyfriend to an agent from Celebs Go Dating on Tuesday.
The former Coronation Street star, 34, revealed her new man to receptionist Tom Read Wilson after debuting him on Monday’s episode.
The actress shocked viewers last week when she revealed she had a secret boyfriend despite taking part in the reality dating show.
The star confessed she was in a relationship with Robbie Talbot, 44, and her admission shocked her castmates and the show’s dating experts.
Helen tearfully told the presenters: ‘I think I’m in love with him’.

After her confession, love guru Paul Brunson said in a confessional: ‘Helen not only wasted our time, but also the time of all the dates.
“We need to hear the full truth about why she hid this from us. And if we’re not happy with her response, it’s time for her to leave the agency.”
Back at the office, Helen revealed: ‘I know I can’t date, but I might want to stay with the agency and maybe do a bit of therapy. For myself.’
Then she started crying while waiting for the experts’ decision.
They thanked her for her honesty and told her they could handle anything. Paul, who was the strongest after the revelation, gave her a hug.
He said to Helen, ‘I applaud this. I appreciate this. This is all I wanted.’
And following Helen’s candid confession, her new man has been welcomed onto the show. Following his appearance on Monday’s episode, the former footballer met a few more familiar faces on Tuesday’s episode.
In the episode, Robbie and receptionist Tom had a flirty conversation while the new couple sat in the waiting room.
Tom asked Helen’s boyfriend what he did for a living. Robbie replied that he was in ‘constriction’, to which the receptionist asked: ‘Would I recognise one of your erections?’

As the three chatted happily, Tom asked Helen’s boyfriend what he did for a living. Robbie replied that he was ‘in a pinch’.
Tom responds in a cheeky tone: “Would I recognize one of your erections?”
Robbie, apparently feeling shy, quickly said, “No, I don’t think so!”
Helen’s new partner has already become a striking character after criticising the actress’s cooking skills.
In an earlier episode, Helen and Robbie got chatting in a posh restaurant about how the Coronation Street star could improve her cooking skills, with Robbie confessing that her spaghetti Bolognese tasted ‘like cat food’.
“You can’t cook love. No, really. I came over to your house and you said you were going to cook me spag bol (sic),” Robbie began.
‘So spag bol, there was no spaghetti, there was no garlic bread, there was no parmesan cheese. It was just minced meat.
“It looked like cat food.”

Helen seemed unimpressed by the comment and responded curtly, “You know, I always make sure you’re not hungry.
“I always feed you. I just feed you the food I feed my children.”
The comments were made as part of a challenge set by the experts, who were asked to discuss what they didn’t like about each other.
Earlier in the episode, Helen made a shocking confession to Robbie.
With a drink in her hand, she said, “So I basically told the agency everything about you and me,” to which Robbie replied, “Oh yeah?”
“So they want to know if you want to come with me to the agency, as my boyfriend,” she asks.
“What do you mean?” Robbie asked, bewildered, to which Helen remarked, “As if I came to the officers with my boyfriend.”
Robbie continued: ‘And what?’ Helen replied: ‘I don’t know, I think they just want to meet you.’
