Helen Flanagan admits she’s living out of a plastic bag after hotel staff threatened to call the police on her
The TV star laughed as she made the admission, telling fans she’s too “disorganised” for a suitcase.
She said: “I’m in Wales, I’ve done two shows and am having such a fun time on this tour.”
The actor is currently appearing in the Easter pantomime Mother Goose, staying in hotels along the way.
Helen explained: “Organisation is not my strong point – obviously ADHD.

“But I could not cope with lugging my suitcase around any further, so look at this…”
The 35-year-old even turned the camera to show off her makeshift ‘luggage’ – a bog-standard white bin bag rammed with her stuff.
She added: “I turned up to the theatre with a bag like this. I can’t cope with a suitcase any longer!”
Helen also recently revealed she was threatened with police after a bust-up with hotel staff.

The ex-Corrie star spilled all about her explosive run-in at a Travelodge.
She revealed she overslept in a Northampton hotel and was threatened with police after failing to check out on time.
Telling the story on Instagram, Helen said: “Right, cut a long story short. Basically, on this tour, we’re staying in this Travelodge. Fine.
“So I basically went to bed at half one, woke up at twelve. I literally woke up to this woman at twelve o’clock banging on my door.
“Told me to ‘open the door’. I said, ‘oh hi, sorry.’
“She was like, ‘yeah, check-out, it’s at twelve.’
“And I said, ‘oh sorry, I didn’t know.’
“I said, ‘I’ll just have a quick shower and go.’
“She said, ‘no, you can’t have a quick shower. So you need to get out now before I ring the police.’”
In response, a Travelodge spokesperson told The Sun: “We are sorry to hear that Helen was disappointed with her stay.
“We have reached out to her directly and are speaking with the hotel team to understand what happened on this occasion.”
Meanwhile, Helen is currently starring on MTV’s Celebrity Ex On The Beach.
The actress is the most high-profile name on the cast for the fourth series of the MTV show.
The Sun revealed in November that she had signed up following her split from boyfriend Robbie Talbot, 46.
However, Helen previously told The Sun she issued bosses with an ultimatum before agreeing to appear.
The mum-of-three insisted on having her own bed at all times and was adamant she didn’t want to be seen sharing with another man.
