The last time we saw Lauren, she was struggling to forgive her friend Chloe Sims for keeping her romance with ex-fling Mario Falcone a secret from her for a whole month.
Lauren is wasting no time feeling sorry for herself over the situation and has been keeping herself busy with her clothing range and hair extension brand.
‘I haven’t spoken to Chloe. I’m not worried about seeing her,’ she told Closer Online at an Essex event hosted by JC Le Roux La Fleurette.
‘I’m bound to see her as we have mutual friends, but I have plenty of friends outside the show, so I’m not too bothered,’ Lauren revealed.
So does Lauren find friendship ‘break-ups’ harder than break-ups with boyfriends?
‘I think any type of break-up is hard, but obviously you have a lot of trust in your friends.’
Aside from her business endeavours and her regular DJ slots, Lauren has an exciting trip to New York planned, and she wants YOUR help to decide how she should spend her time in the Big Apple.
‘I’m going to New York on holiday with some friends which I’m really looking forward to,’ she tells us excitedly.
‘I’ve never been before- I’ve sent out a tweet looking for suggestions on where’s good to go.’
Now that TOWIE is finished, does Lauren enjoy watching other reality shows?
‘I love Made In Chelsea,’ she tells us.
And her favourite character?
‘I really like Lucy Watson, she wears hair extensions from my range... I just think she’s really real and likes to tell it like it is. She’s a bit like me, I think.’
Lauren isn’t harbouring any secret crushed for the Made In Chelsea gang though (sadly no MIC/TOWIE romances!) especially not lothario Spencer Matthews.
‘Spencer’s just there for comedy now isn’t he?’ she laughs.
Lauren is currently promoting her clothing range with inthestyle.co.uk as well as her hair extension range with hairrehablondon.co.uk.
