She and footballer Scott, 36, split after 13 years in 2022. They never married and the home near Bolton is solely in his name.
Last year we reported the house was put on sale for £1.5million before being reduced to £995,000.
A friend of Helen’s said: “Scott pays for the house and all the bills and he’s decided a six-bedroom place is way too big for Helen on her own with the kids.
“But Helen doesn’t want to move and is digging her heels in. She loves the place, the kids are settled at the local school and her mum and dad live around the corner.

“Scott wants to buy Helen a four-bedroom home. He’s even offered to put it in her name but wants to stop the maintenance payments.
“The relationship has completely broken down. They no longer communicate — everything goes through her parents.”
The home first went up for sale for £1.5million last May. It was reduced to £1.195million four weeks later. Then in September it was reduced to £995,000.
Former Celtic, Aston Villa and Man City player Scott, who is without a club since leaving Bristol Rovers last summer, bought the property in June 2021 for £840,000.
But another pal explained Helen has spent a fortune of her own money renovating it.
They said: “The house was really run down and Helen has modernised it and made it into the beautiful family home it is today.
“Scott wants to sell to take the money out, but he hasn’t found Helen or the kids a new place. He’s not being reasonable. He and Helen are not on the same page.”
The former couple have daughters Matilda, ten, and Delilah, seven and son Charlie, four.
Helen has blamed petty squabbles and communication issues for the fallout. She was furious just before Christmas when she spotted photos of Scott at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. She hit out online: “You really are a piece of s***.
“How dare you not turn up to Charlie’s nativity.”
Reps for Helen and Scott were contacted for comment tonight.
