Lauren Goodger is left ‘devastated and anxious’ as her childhood sweetheart Mark Wright and his wife Michelle Keegan announce pregnancy
Lauren Goodger is reportedly ‘devastated and anxious’ after finding out her ex-partner Mark Wright is expecting a baby with wife Michelle Keegan.
The former TOWIE star had a ten-year relationship with co-star Mark until 2012 and she is now angry that she has been ‘left behind’.
Lauren is also said to be ‘super scared’ she might bump into happy couple Mark and Michelle as they both live close to each other in Essex.
A source said The sun: ‘The news has been a huge blow to Lauren and she is devastated, especially as she hasn’t had a great Christmas, so it’s the icing on the cake.
‘It has hit her hard, Mark is building his perfect family and she is being left behind.’
They continued: ‘She has always had a lot of love for Mark, they were once childhood sweethearts and in an ideal world she would have been reunited with him.

‘Plus, Michelle and Mark live close by, so she’s very worried that she might run into them at some point, which will be horrifying for her.’
MailOnline has contacted Lauren’s representatives for comment.
Mark and Lauren, who were together on and off for ten years, shot to fame on the ITVBe reality series, with storylines revolving around his numerous flirtations with other women, including Lucy Mecklenburgh and Sam Faiers.
Mark and Lauren even got engaged on TOWIE in March 2011 – with the Essex lad breaking things off five months later – and there has been bad blood between the two ever since.
Eighteen months later, Mark and Michelle met on a group holiday to Dubai and fell madly in love.
By September 2013, less than a year after their New Year’s holiday, the couple was engaged and attempted to tie the knot in May 2015.
But things haven’t always been smooth sailing between the happy couple and Lauren, although things are cordial these days.
Ahead of his wedding to Michelle, the former reality star took to social media to express his long-term love on Twitter following war words.

‘She has always had a lot of love for Mark, they were once childhood sweethearts and in an ideal world she would have been reunited with him. Plus, Michelle and Mark live close by, so she’s super scared of running into them.”
He apparently copied Lauren’s not-so-cryptic post, in which he read: ‘She’s the kind of girl who meets a guy when he’s too young and he messes it up because there’s too much living to do. But later he realizes that she is perfect’.
Mark stated, “If you are reading this, please respect my wife and STOP. I wish you the best, but leave me, my life and my wife out of it. I’m sure there are other ways to make money [sic].’
He then retweeted a series of comments from fans, all of which supported his position.

Netflix star Michelle cradled her blossoming bump and wrote: ‘2025 is going to be a special year for us…’
The couple received hundreds of well wishes from friends and family on their Instagram post, including from Rochelle Humes, Kelly Brook, Vicky Pattison and best friend Arg.
