But now pals say Lauren Goodger – who split from her on/off boyfriend Jake McLean last month after two years together - would like to finally bury the hatched with her former finance Mark Wright ahead of her 30th birthday in September.
The couple went their separate ways back in September 2011 after a on/off 10 year romance, and following the split Lauren, 29, claimed her former TOWIE co-star had made digs about her weight, banned her from clubbing with him and was a “serial love cheat."
A source says: “Lauren cares how things ended with Mark and how nasty it all got.
“She wants to put an end to it all and finally move on.
"She doesn’t have romantic feelings for Mark, but she’s keen to wipe the slate clean.
“She’s planning a 30th birthday bash in September and wants him to be there.
"She’s even told pals she’s planning on reaching out and inviting him.”
