She played her from 2000 but left two years later.

Later that year, she appeared on I’m a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here!

Helen returned to the role in 2017 but left again the following year and has not been in the soap since.

She appeared on I’m a Celebrity . . . South Africa in 2023 and was on Celebs Go Dating last year.

But a pal said: “She has had enough of reality TV and would like a regular job.

“Helen recently spoke to a top Corrie producer about the possibility of coming back, but her character wouldn’t currently feed into any plots that are playing out.”

Last month, Helen told The Sun on Sunday: “I’d absolutely love to go back to Coronation Street, I really, really would.

“I’d love to see Rosie Webster come back as a single mum, having just left her partner.

“She’d dump her two kids with Sally and I think she would be an iconic barmaid at Rovers Return.”

The snub came as it emerged she was selling her £1million, eight bedroom home after her split from footballer Scott Sinclair.

Helen, who has three children with Scott, 36, said it was a struggle to manage the upkeep of the home in Bolton.

She said: “It makes me sad I’m gonna be leaving.”
