Mark Wright left fans shocked when he posted a furious rant on Twitter, in which he slammed his ex-fiancée for endlessly speaking about his life with new wife Michelle Keegan.
The former TOWIE star wrote: "Endless mentions re: me and us is embarrassing. I really thought after lawyers being involved and polite pleas to stop mentioning me she would stop. Maybe not.
"It's hurtful to think one person needs to mention YOU every week to earn a living. Being married to another woman almost makes it unfair!
"If you're reading this, please PLEASE respect my wife and STOP. Everyone has a past, get over it! I really didn't want to have to do this but enough is enough.
"I wish you well but leave me, my life and my wife out of it. I'm sure there are other ways to make money."
He also shared a number of comments from fans, all of whom supported his tirade against Lauren.
Lauren Goodger has remained silent on Twitter since her ex’s outburst, choosing not to become embroiled in a spat over social media.
However her agent has now released an official statement on her behalf, responding to Mark’s claims.
Speaking with OK! Online, they explained: "Mark is right – this situation is incredibly embarrassing...
"It's hurtful for Lauren to constantly be painted in this way and for readers to actually believe it. That is why Lauren has taken to her own column in the past to defend herself against ludicrous claims such as the one that said she was going to gatecrash the wedding.
“Anyone facing such embarrassing lies week in and week out is of course going to want to defend themselves.
"Lauren has privately been in a relationship too and this unwanted attention surrounding her ex of many years ago is certainly not welcomed.
“We would like to clarify that Lauren is paid the same weekly fee for her column every week whether it mentions Mark or not, and she has given no other interviews on him – despite the numerous offers.
“She once again wishes them nothing but the best."
