Scottish connection<\/a>, because I’m always happy when I’m here,” Helen joked.<\/p>\nDiscussing her split with former fianc\u00e9 Scott Sinclair and her desire to move to Scotland, she said: “I am always less stressed when I’m here. I did go through a period when I split with the father of my children when I thought to myself ‘where do I actually wanna live’ and I did think of Scotland.”<\/p>\n
“I think as an actress though ultimately being in London is better. I just love Glasgow though, and Loch Lomond too I am always taking trips there it’s just so nice and relaxing and chilled.”<\/p>\n
Helen separated from her most recent relationship with her ex-boyfriend Robbie Talbot back in May, and has been soaking up single life again.<\/p>\n
Admitting she finds it hard to navigate sometimes, Helen admitted: “I don’t know if I’m really good at being single but I am just trying to enjoy the time being with my friends and having this time to think ‘right what do I want to do’ and ‘where do I want to live’<\/p>\n
“Just being able to focus on my own goals really, and myself more than anything. It’s just a really strange adaptation when you have always had a boyfriend, I’ve always had one since I was the age of 17.<\/p>\n
“I lived with my first boyfriend and then I was with Scott for 13 years and had the kids and then to come to this age and be single, but it’s quite nice though and empowering to be where I am and focus on what I want now.”<\/p>\n
Meanwhile at the Glasgow event, celebs and stars enjoyed the luxury bash into the small hours with Pussycat Dolls’ Kimberly Wyatt taking to the DJ decks. Singer Natalie James also joined forces with the powerful GEO Gospel Choir.<\/p>\n
Britain’s Got Talent magician Cameron Young baffled guests with a touch of magic before rising DJ Elisha closed the evening with an energetic set.<\/p>\n
