Celtic WAG Helen Flanagan has shared a sweet message in an online post by Leigh Griffiths’ ex Linzi McCartney.

Sharing a picture of her new baby on Instagram, Linzi said: “And To think she still shouldn’t be here for another couple weeks.”

Helen - who is pregnant with Hopps star Scott Sinclair’s second child - replied: “Ellie is so cute.”

Linzi wrote back: “Thanks babe, hope you had a ball in Dubai xxx.”

Glasgow Times:

The exchange between both mothers came just days after the Evening Times reported how Linzi sensationally hit out at Celtic striker Griffiths after claiming to have given birth to his fifth child.

The 26-year-old took to her Twitter page to post an image of her new daughter, officially giving her the footballer’s surname.

She wrote: “On a brighter note - this little one was registered today. Ellie Griffiths, 12/12/17.”

Her post came shortly after Griffiths, 27, took to his Instagram page to confirm his relationship with new girlfriend, Caitlyn Melville.

A raging Linzi hit back in a now-deleted post.

She wrote: “Imagine, getting your ex pregnant, her having your daughter! Lying to your new girlfriend about your daughter...then plastering a picture of her in your Instagram.”

She also included the hashtag: “#t****r.”

Linzi also went on to accuse the sporting star of infidelity when a Twitter user insisted: “You could hang your hat on that boy being faithful.”

In another deleted post, Linzi hit back: “Leigh - faithful? Hahahaha he’s been with his ‘girlfriend’ for nearly a year and I’ve just had his baby?”

Griffiths already has four children by three mums and Linzi is mother to his two boys Rhys and Jacob.
