Away from the show, the mum-of-three has been having some spooky Halloween fun with her children at home on her parents' Cumbria farm, where she is currently living, following her recent spit from her rugby player husband Richie Myler.

The Skelton household had decorated a table with a pumpkin, skull and a big smoking bowl which the children were dipping breadsticks into. We wonder what was in it!

No doubt Helen’s children Ernie, seven, Louis, five and baby Elsie enjoyed their eerie Halloween teatime.

The TV star had previously shared a photo with fans of her spooky-themed door ready for 31st October.

"Standard Skelton autumn door. Love my mum," posted Helen beside the snap of the family’s front door decorated with floating witches' hats in pink, orange and purple, pumpkins lining the pathway and mini pumpkin lights wrapped around the wooden beams.

Helen has been praised for getting on with life amidst the drama in her personal life concerning her ex husband Richie Myler.

The couple split in April, four months after welcoming their youngest child, baby daughter Elsie. Richie is now having a baby with his new girlfriend Stephanie Thirkill - six months after he left the family home.

Helen had been married to rugby player Richie for nine years and share their three children together.

In a recent appearance on Lorraine, Helen was asked how she balances, "me time and work".

Helen replied: "Of course I struggle. I lump work into 'me time'. Not everyone does Strictly for their work. For me, lower the standards. My kids don't always go to school in fully ironed school uniforms sometimes. Delegate!" Looks like she’s doing a great job and top marks on the Halloween fun Helen.
