Both Helen and Charlie were soaking up the sun

Helen explained the amazing story behind her dog in an interview with The Times. She said: "I was in north London when I spotted him. He was a dirty bundle of fur cowering underneath a car. He was covered in fleas and had tar all down his back legs. It turned out he was living in a plant pot, surviving on old takeaways. I took him home and the plan was to trace his owners, but they never came forward and he ended up staying." 

She also posed with fellow actress Pippa Duffy in a sun-soaked photo by the coast. Pippa accompanied Helen, Wren and Lark on their recent holiday to Italy, where Helen shared more idyllic shots of her two girls.
