Former Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan is reportedly facing a driving ban after her Audi was allegedly 'caught speeding twice in 16 days'. The actress appeared at a court in Wirral accused of two charges of failing to provide documents after she allegedly failed to respond to police notices of prosecution asking her to identify who was driving her luxury Q7 when it was caught speeding on July 10 and then July 26 this year in the Liverpool area. But the mum-of-three blamed her boyfriend Robbie Talbot, as she said she was 'too busy as a working single mum' to remember if she had read the court papers.

Helen, 34, told a court: ''I'm so confused. My life would be unbelievably difficult without a driving licence.'' READ NEXT: Coronation Street confirms Carla Connor and DS Lisa Swain future with Christmas tease The former Rosie Webster actress was convicted of both charges last September.

But appearing at the court, and representing herself, Helen said she thought her 45-year old boyfriend had responded to the police requests to identify the driver of the Audi as he had been driving it. She said: "I said to my boyfriend, you need to reply to this.

"I was not driving the car at the time and I said you need to sort it. I was annoyed. It was not me who had the points.

" When asked if she had seen the court papers.
