The 27-year-old Coronation Street star, who is eight months pregnant with her second child, took to the social media site to share one of her first moments on the cobbles with her on-screen mum Sally Webster (played by Sally Dynevor) but many of her 583,000 Instagram followers were intrigued by her clothing choice.
A bare-faced younger Helen was captured wearing a long-sleeved top, which featured a cat emblazoned with the words: “Hippy Kity” from Tammy Girl and Instagram users were quick to recognise the once popular clothing brand.
Helen captioned the picture: “#tbt to me and mum @sallydynevor my Tammy girl tee xxx @coronationstreet x”
One user wrote: “I had this top, Tammy Girl was life.”(sic)
Another fan penned: “I mean if you didn’t shop there when you were 12 then were you even cool?!”
Haha! I had that T-Shirt. Loved Tammy Girl!” a third quipped.
Other Coronation Street fans commented on Sally’s lack of ageing over the years, as well as their memories of Helen’s character as a youngster in the soap.
One user penned: “Omg Sally looks exactly the same.”(sic)
“Aww this brings back memories,” another fan wrote.
A shocked fan added: “Omg can’t believe you was so young when you started on Corrie.”(sic)
