Inside Helen Skelton's home life with three kids as she lifts lid on adoption plans

Balancing multiple TV projects and sharing her bustling home life with her three kids, single mum Helen Skelton says she's keen on welcoming two new additions into her family.

Home is where the heart is, and for Helen Skelton, it's nestled among the lush hills of Cumbria with her trio of children: Ernie, nine, soon-to-be-eight Louis, and toddler Elsie, not forgetting their two playful pooches. Amid all the excitement ahead of the new season of Springtime on the Farm, Helen is fresh off a mammoth 24-hour roller-skate for Comic Relief, which saw her and Morning Live pal Gethin Jones skating into the hearts of the nation for a whole day and raising a whopping £1 million.
