The 28-year-old was attacked by her former fiancé, after she was forced to defend herself against rumours that she was still pining for him ahead of his wedding to Michelle Keegan.
But, after issuing a calm response to 28-year-old Mark’s angry tweets, Lauren is having the last laugh.
Taking to Instagram to reveal her reveal her romantic getaway with her boyfriend, Lauren shared a snap.
She gushed: “Abu Dhabi you’ve been amazing! Thanks to this special boy for my surprise romantic getaway #spoilt [sic]”
It’s not confirmed, but it looks like the man in the picture is Lauren’s on/off boyfriend Jake McLean.
Former TOWIE star Lauren’s post also dismisses claims that she ‘followed’ Mark and Michelle, also 28, to Dubai on their honeymoon.
She recently used her new! magazine column to deny her cryptic Instagram posts were aimed at Mark, who she dated on and off for 10 years.
But presenter Mark clearly wasn’t impressed with this. He took to Twitter to fume: “Endless mentions RE: me and us is embarrassing. I really thought after lawyers being involved and polite pleas to stop mentioning me she would.
“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 your reading this, please PLEASE respect my wife and STOP [sic].”
But Lauren refused to accept Mark’s attack. Her reps told OK! Online: “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.”
Lauren previously admitted that she felt sorry for Mark and actress Michelle over the constant reports of her ‘jealously’ that surrounding their wedding day.
