Helen Flanagan leaves Twitter

Actress Helen Flanagan has stopped tweeting on the micro-blogging site Twitter.

The 23-year-old enjoyed keeping her 500,000 followers updated with the latest going-ons in her life, but she has stopped updating them all with her latest developments and opinions on Twitter after receiving spiteful messages from trolls, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Her spokesperson said: "People were being really nasty about her".

The "Coronation Street" star hasn't tweeted since July 22. She is also a keen user of photo-sharing site Instagram but hasn't uploaded any picture on the website since July 21.
