Fans questioned why the Celebs Go Dating star PhotoShopped her 'pretty face'

Former TOWIE star Lauren Goodger has been accused of 'ridiculous' PhotoShopping of her face in an Instagram post advertising car perfume.

She wrote on the site: “Wow @CarFumeUK these are unreal😍 The new CarBears have literally just launched last night! They last soo long and mine smells of Creed, need I say anymore?🐻 Use LAUREN10 at checkout💥 #ad”

But rather than being wowed by the thought of a car reeking of Creed, followers were more interested in her face.

One commented: “What do you photo tune your face beyond recognition like this?? It looks so ridiculous, you’re a pretty girl.”

Harry Derbridge was a Towie original and still holds a very special place in our hearts. He made a welcome return to the show as Bobby Norris's love interest but, allegedly, cheated on him.

Harry now works it as a make-up artist. Is it us, or does he look like he might have had a little help with lip fillers?

Maria Fowler, series 1 - 3

Maria, on the left with Joey Essex and Chloe Sims in 2011, was in the show from the get-go but her TV career was rocked when it was alleged she'd worked as an escort. She's since said she quit 'by mutual consent' after she refused an on-screen romance with Mick Norcross.

Dan Osborne, series 8 - 14

Dan Osborne, pictured here with James Argent in 2013, managed seven series on the show. He was given the boot after a series of recordings, claiming to show Dan being verbally abusive towards his ex-girlfriend Megan Tomlin, came to light.

Dan is still in the spotlight due to his relationship with ex-EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa. In May 2018 he described their marriage as "unhappy".

Amber Dowding, series 18 - 21

Amber was part of a mega cull of seven Towie characters in January 2018. She claimed that she and her boyfriend Chris Clark were cut because they were happy. They've now split and Chris has reappeared on the show.

If Amber's social media is anything to go by, she now appears to mostly be on holiday. Pretty goals from where we're sitting.

Mike Hassini9 of 26

Mike Hassini, series 16 - 18 and 21

Mike Hassini brought a hot bod to Towie and...not much else. He was cut in January 2018 due to a lack of storylines as he was loved-up outside the telly show.

Mike is working as a PT, still loved-up, and still has a very hot bod. He has subsequently appeared briefly in gym scenes on the show.

Jack Rigden, series 20 - 2111 of 26

Jack Rigden, series 20 - 21

Jack Rigden tried hard, so hard, to make an impression on Towie but his lack of on-screen romance and agg saw him get very little camera time. He was part of the big cull of January 2018.

Jack's Instagram bio describes him as an "absolute geezer". Which is nice.

Jordan Brook, series 20 - 2113 of 26

Jordan Brook, series 20 - 21

Jordan and Jack were brought in as friends of Megan McKenna. When she quit, they were left without any storylines.

Jordan is now dating Sofia Filipe of Ex On The Beach fame. Aww.

Ricky Rayment15 of 26

Ricky Rayment, series 4 - 14

We still think very fondly of Ricky. His rocky relationship with Jess Wright was a huge part of the show but when they finally broke up, well... Ricky left the show "by mutual agreement"with Towie bosses.

Ricky now seems to mainly go fishing.

Tom Pearce, series 5 - 1317 of 26

Tom Pearce, series 5 - 13

Remember when Tom Pearce dated Lauren Goodger following her split from Mark Wright? That was an odd time. He was quietly shown the back doorof the show in 2014.

Tom Pearce, 2018

Honestly? We're not 100% sure what Tom is actually doing these days. He used to work in the City, and his holidays certainly look pretty epic, so maybe that.

Grace Andrews19 of 26

Grace Andrews, series 11 - 12

Grace almost had a romantic relationship with Lewis Bloor (shudder) and that was the beginning and end of her time on Towie.

Grace Andrews, 201820 of 26

Grace is now involved in a semi-permanent make-up company. Those Towie stars must really hate cleanser.

Fran Parman21 of 26

Fran Parman, series 11 - 16

Fran's original romantic interest was Tom Pearce but he stepped aside to allow Diags to woo her. Bad luck. Their relationship was turbulent but apparently not turbulent enough for show producers. Diags stayed, she went.

Fran and Diags split and she now hangs out in clothing that does not look very practical.

Jasmin Walia, series 1 and 7 -1723 of 26

Jasmin Walia, series 1 and 7-17

Jasmin managed eight series until she was given the boot. In 2015 her agent stated: "TOWIE is very storyline dependent and Jasmin did not have much going on that we could show on screen."Ouch. She went on to audition for The X Factor. It did not go well. She also took part in reality show Desi Rascals, that lasted for one series.

Jasmin is still being papped, which is more than can be said for some of the other ex-Towie stars.

Jake's time of TOWIE was mainly characterised by him being mean to our sweet Essex princess Chloe Lewis including many accusations of infidelity, plus rumours he'd slept with Megan McKenna.

The reality star also faced a backlash from fans recently when she failed to show up for an appearance on This Morning with Celebs Go Dating co-star Jack Fincham, with no explanation.

One viewer called it ‘rude’ as they wrote: "How rude to just not turn up without letting them know."

Another responded: "That was actually very embarrassing on their behalf, great example of professionalism".

Following this, a source said her friends are worried aboutLauren's relationship with alcohol and partying.

They revealed: "To not turn up to a TV appearance is so unprofessional, and they’re afraid she’s going to ruin relationships with TV shows that have taken years to build.

"When alcohol is involved, she becomes unreliable and reckless, and pals are worried because they think she’s secretly masking her unhappiness and needs to address the cause of her problems."
