Lauren Goodger has apparently hit back after Michelle Keegan supposedly liked a dodgy tweet about her.

Lauren, who was engaged to Mark Wright whilst the two appeared on TOWIE together, has never quite seen eye-to-eye with his wife Michelle Keegan.

Whilst the two have never publicly battled it out since Michelle and Mark married in 2015, people have read between the lines over things that each have said and done.

But last week, it came to light that Michelle had liked a tweet written in 2012 which slammed the idea of Lauren appearing on popular TV talent show, Strictly Come Dancing.

According to Star Magazine, it read: "Oh my Lauren Goodger is going on Strictly Come Dancing! Noooooooooooo!!!"

Now, who knows whether Michelle had scrolled back through every single tweet about Lauren EVER in the last couple of weeks to find it, like it and hope that other people noticed.

Or whether she had just liked it back in 2012 before she'd even met Mark.

It's hard to say.

BUT ANYWAY.

Lauren has now posted a word image on her Instagram which reads: "I don't compete, I will let them have you."

She captioned the image with a very vague and nonchalant caption which read: "Good morning 🙌🏼😘💗 I'm so happy it's Saturday.. it's so favourite day of the week!"

But she then added a hashtag to the end of her caption: "#Cringe."

Eek.

Fans are now CONVINCED that Lauren's post is directed towards her love rival Michelle, who is currently on holiday in what fans have assumed is Fiji.

Writing in the comments of her post, one person actually tagged Michelle and wrote: "This is an indirect at you for bringing up old shit, clearly very bitter the fact that Lauren was Mark's first love and if you wanna mock somebody about going on sticky come dancing remember your character was the one who got killed off and how many times have I seen you on my tv since? Pure muggy! And nobody likes girls with a shit and nasty personality! Keep doing you Lauren boo Michelle will always be watching."

Wowza.

Another referenced the Strictly/Twitter drama that surfaced last week, adding that they were "shocked" that Michelle would do something like that.

Others agreed with Lauren's statement, as one wrote: "Boom! Right there sister!" whilst another added: "Yes, I never did get the begging Dolly Parton did with Jolene, if my man wants to go #boybye."

Another person commented: "Never settle for less than you truly deserve. Make sure YOU know your worth."

Blimey. What a drama!
