She's got a bit of extra time on her hands now that she's finished filming her last scenes for Coronation Street.
And Helen Flanagan epitomized a lady of leisure as she strutted around a beach in Dubai.
The 21-year-old showed off her fantastic curves in a blue string bikini, by Vix, giving an onlookers a treat.
Helen, who played Rosie Webster on the show, flaunted her ample cleavage and pert derriere in the skimpy Brazillian two-piece as she topped up her tan and had a go at paddle-boarding.
But never one to let her guard down, despite enjoying a sunny break, she kept on her massive gold hoop earrings as she splashed around in the sea, near her hotel, Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort and Spa.

Her brunette locks were pulled back into a messy bun.
The look was in contrast to some of the comments Helen made last month, saying she was rather shy and reserved compared to Rosie.
She revealed that one of the reasons she did not enjoy playing the character was her catty nature.

'When I'm acting, I like things to feel real, and I didn't like Rosie's bitchiness. I didn't enjoy playing that kind of character,' she told the Sunday Mirror.
'She went through a phase of being such a catty girl. As an actress you do the best job you can, but I didn't enjoy it because it didn't feel real.'
Helen, who filmed her last scenes for the soap in Manchester just before Christmas, has spent the past 12 years playing the once-shy little girl who has blossomed into a buxom young woman with her sights set on becoming a glamour model in London.

In an interview last year Helen said that despite her differences with fame-hungry Rosie, she did have some good points.
'I can hide behind her. She's funny and sweet too. I didn't enjoy playing her when she went through a promiscuous phase. Luckily she shows more heart these days.
'But I'd give her some advice and tell her to calm down a bit,' she said. 'She is fiercely ambitious and worships power and money.'
