Lauren Goodger showcases her curves in black tank top and green combat trousers after hitting the gym in Essex

Lauren Goodger looked effortlessly stylish on Monday as she was spotted leaving the gym after a workout in Chigwell, Essex.

The former TOWIE star, 36, cut a relaxed figure in a black tank top and dark green combat trousers.

She added a pair of comfy black slippers as she packed her essentials into a brown Louis Vuitton handbag.

Lauren swept her brunette locks out of her face with a claw clip and wore a gold pendant necklace and several matching bracelets.

Lauren has committed to a new health kick after admitting she ‘ordered takeaways’ when she became a mum earlier this year.

She reportedly tried the Francis Diet earlier this year, a three-month program where she controls her calorie intake and follows a new exercise regimen, after expressing her determination to undergo a fitness overhaul.

Lauren already told her followers in May that she wanted to ‘do something for myself’ and therefore started following a new training program.

She said: ‘Very intense but amazing results. This is my time. I’m starting with a three-month plan.’

A source subsequently said this OK! Magazine: ‘For Lauren, it’s not about losing weight or changing her body. She wants to feel good inside. When you eat better, you feel better.

‘She is so busy as a mother and is always on the go. She cooks healthy, home-cooked meals for Larose, but when it comes to herself, she orders takeout or goes to a drive-thru.

“She now has meal preps from Woo’d By Food, including things like chicken and rice, and fish and potatoes, and she does a lot of walking, yoga and stretching.”

And Lauren showed just how hard she works on Thursday when she uploaded an intense video compiling her recent grueling workout to her Instagram.

The star was put to the test when she shared the clip of her performing weighted Russian twists with a medicine ball, sled pushes and lunges with her two-year-old daughter Larose.

The video was accompanied by an inspirational audio that said, “That woman is a force to be reckoned with, she has seen her fair share of trials and heartbreak that would bring most people to their knees, not her.”

The clip also showed Lauren cooking healthy meals, letting herself cry and spending time with her daughter.

Lauren focuses on herself and her daughter Larose, two, after a difficult year.

In July, the reality star’s ex, Charles Drury, denied assaulting her. He is accused of carrying out the attack the day after they buried their second daughter, Lorena, last year.

The mother experienced a heartbreaking tragedy in July 2022 when Lorena tragically passed away two days after her birth after the umbilical cord was knotted around her neck twice.

Charles is accused of causing actual bodily harm to Lauren on August 4, 2022, Snaresbrook Crown Court heard.

The 26-year-old is also accused of “controlling or coercive behavior” against the 36-year-old between August 1, 2020 and August 5, 2022.

Charles pleaded not guilty to the charges during a brief preliminary hearing at the court in the east London borough of Redbridge.

Although he was “personally connected” to her, the complaint alleges that he “engaged in conduct toward Lauren that was controlling or coercive and that had a serious effect on her.”

It is alleged that he put Lauren Goodger in fear that violence would be used against ‘her’ on at least two occasions, ‘at a time when he knew or should have known that the behavior’ would have a ‘serious effect’ on her. .

The second charge states that on August 4, 2022, he “assaulted Lauren Goodger, causing actual bodily harm to her.”
