Helen's incredible performance on Strictly came just days after it was revealed that her ex-husband, Richie Myler, is reportedly expecting a baby with his new partner.
Helen separated from rugby player Richie earlier this year, shortly after welcoming their third child together in December 2021.
According to the Sun, Richie and new girlfriend Stephanie Thirkhill are "thrilled" to be having their first child together. She is said to already be displaying a noticeable baby bump on social media.
