Last year, Lauren opened up about the struggles she had previously faced co-parenting daughter Larose, three, with Charles.
However, the pair reunited earlier this year with friends telling The Sun that Lauren had moved Charles back into her home.
But last night the Towie star posted a series of cryptic comments on Instagram and spoke about struggling with love.
She penned on her Story: "Love me well or leave me alone."
Another post saw her telling fans: "Why have I been sitting here for hours with no tele on..."
And a third said: "The universe will literally sit you down and break you to humble you, then will isolate you.
"Then give you back everything 10x to prove to you how powerful you are, and that everything is happening for a reason.
"Trust yourself, the Universe and your path."
The reality TV legend then shared a sizzling bathroom selfie, and wore denim hot pants with a pretty pink camisole top.
She wrote alongside the snap: "In the sky" adding the hashtag "onwards and upwards".
Lauren Goodger fuels rumours she's back with ex as they have dinner with Towie co-stars
Lauren and Charles tragically lost their second child Lorena during a traumatic labour in 2022.
Reality favourite Lauren fell pregnant just three months after giving birth to Larose in 2021.
Lorena, who Lauren described as the "most beautiful healthy baby she'd ever seen", died after her umbilical cord became wrapped around her neck.
BECOMING A STAR
Lauren shot to fame in the very first series of The Only Way Is Essex.
The OG reality star dated Mark Wright during her time on the show, but the pair officially split up in 2016.
After Towie she competed in the eighth series of Dancing On Ice.
She was eliminated in the second week and has since branded the judges as 'vile'.
Lauren also starred in Celebrity Big Brother in 2014 and was the seventh housemate of the series to be evicted.
In 2024, she returned to Towie, much to the delight of fans.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom reps break silence on split after nine-year romance
The representatives for Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have broken their silence following reports in recent weeks that the pair called it time on their nine-year relationship Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have finally broke their silence after a week of swirling speculation that they have called it quits on their nine-year relationship. The couple have seen ups and downs since they first dated in 2016. They went Instagram official in May 2016 when the musician shared a funny photo of herself and Orlando dressed in bathrobes on the steps of the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cannes, France. They dated for a little over a year before calling it quits in early 2017, but they soon got back together in 2018 and announced their engagement in 2019 before moving in together that same year. Her ring consists of a ruby in the middle surrounded by eight white diamonds in a floral pattern. Katy and Orlando then took their relationship to the next level and welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove in August 2020. The pair was last spotted together publicly at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March 2025. And an expert has pinpointed a telling sign that the couple weren't their usual selves even then, as unearthed snaps show a sad signal from Katy - who looks 'almost unrecognisable'. Their reps have now issued a joint statement following rumours fo their split, USMagazine reports. 'Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is — and always will be — raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect.' It comes after Orlando Bloom shared a series of cryptic quotes referring to "darkness" and "loneliness" on July 2. He shared a post by the account @sapienkind which focused on the late Carl Jung, who's considered the founder of analytical psychology. The post included more than a dozen quotes attributed to the psychologist. One quote included in the repost from Orlando was about loneliness. It read: "Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself." Whilst another of those featured in the post focused on love and power. That quote read: "Where love rules, there is no will to power, and where power predominates, love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other." "Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness," one quote read. Whilst another read: "Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul, be just another human soul."

Love Island star's past racist slurs resurface and fans want her 'off the show'
Just weeks after one Love Island USA cast member was booted off the show for past use of racial slurs, web sleuths have uncovered slurs used by another cast member. Yulissa Escobar, a 27-year-old real estate professional from Miami was booted in just the third day of Season 7, after videos surfaced of her using the N-word in a podcast. After the swift removal of Escobar, many fans are hoping the same will happen with Cierra Ortega, a 25-year-old content creator from Phoenix, who arrived on Day 2. Past Instagram posts have surfaced of her using a racial slur towards Chinese people in two separate instances many years apart. One post from January 2015 showed a snap of her at the top of a mountain, using a version of the slur to describe how she smiles. There was also an Instagram story post from February 2023, showing her getting Botox treatments, again using the slur to describe her smile, and many fans are furious, calling for her immediate removal. One post from January 2015 showed a snap of her at the top of a mountain, using a version of the slur to describe how she smiles. While it remains to be seen if the show's producers will remove her like they removed Escobar, Ortega has already taken a bit hit in regards to her Instagram followers. She has lost over 200K followers in the past 48 hours after the posts first re-surfaced. Ortega was poised to potentially cross the 1 million follower mark at some point during Love Island Season 7, but her follower tally now stands at 709K. While she's currently coupled up with Nic Vansteenberghe as filming continues in Fiji, many are calling for her removal on social media. A new petition calling for her removal was started two days ago, when the Instagram posts first surfaced, which currently has 6,670 verified signatures. One fan - @deannacortes - shared the petition link on X, adding, 'Send Cierra Ortega home,' with the hashtags #racist #LoveIslandUSA #stopasianhate. Another X user - @ShaneAnime1990 - insisted, 'Cierra Ortega used a racist word now we have to cancel her if she did it once she'll do it again.' Cass Rabbit (@cassrabbit) tagged both @LoveIslandUSA and @Peacock in her tweet, which read, 'Get Cierra Ortega off your show. This is now the third time I'm seeing she used the slur for asians. Y'all rightfully kicked off Yulissa for saying the n word, what about Cierra? Or does racism against asians not matter to you guys?' Another X user - @h0td1lfj0hnny - asked, 'Why has cierra not been dropped from the villa,,,, she's f***ing racist using slurs. Cass Rabbit (@cassrabbit) tagged both @LoveIslandUSA and @Peacock in her tweet, which read, 'Get Cierra Ortega off your show. This is now the third time I'm seeing she used the slur for asians.

Another X user - @h0td1lfj0hnny - asked, 'Why has cierra not been dropped from the villa,,,, she's f***ing racist using slurs. Mai (@mainpopvirgo) said, 'yulissa said a racial slur (the literal nword) and was kicked out of the show (as she should) bc of the rightful outrage how is this different to cierra saying another racial slur she cannot claim' The user added, 'Yall got yulissa up out of there quick but not cierra ??? @loveislandusa #loveislandusa Cierra not been dropped from the f---ing racist using slurs.' X user @SSTARZZNE added, 'cierra better be at the BOTTOM of that vote after her racist a** got exposed #LoveIslandUSA.' Mai (@mainpopvirgo) said, 'yulissa said a racial slur (the literal nword) and was kicked out of the show (as she should) bc of the rightful outrage how is this different to cierra saying another racial slur she cannot claim.' Ortega has not yet addressed the controversy personally via her verified Instagram page.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom finally address split rumours after cryptic posts
After endless speculation and cryptic social media activity, Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry have finally addressed their split. The Lord of the Rings actor, 48, began dating Teenage Dream pop star Katy, 40, in 2016, and they share a daughter, Daisy Dove, born in 2020. While they've been pretty rock solid for a while as far as the public is concerned—not counting their brief split in 2017—recently rumours have been swirling that they've parted ways. As a result, fans have been paying very close attention to the actions of both stars (such as Katy's obvious tears on stage at her final tour show) and what they're posting online. And while neither Katy nor Orlando has explicitly commented on the reports themselves, their representatives have now issued a statement. They told Us Weekly: 'Due to the abundance of recent interest and conversation surrounding Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry's relationship, representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting.' They continued: 'They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is—and always will be—raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.' This marks the first official comment from their camps on the matter and follows a multi-layered post from Orlando hinting at 'loneliness'. Taking to Instagram, where he boasts seven million followers, Orlando reposted a carousel of quotes from Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung yesterday. Among the pics was the quote: 'Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself.' It didn't take long for Orlando's followers to take notice of the words, theorising that they could have a deeper meaning for him. 'You are not alone😢😢😢', wrote @sate_058.' 'Preach. it's nice to sit down to think about things like this. Good for the brain 🙌💙', commented @orlandobloomhq. 'We in our therapy era 👏', added @mhapriso. June 26 was when US outlet People seemingly confirmed that Orlando and Katy were not together anymore. That same day, the movie star jetted to Italy for the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, where he rubbed shoulders with fellow A-list guests, such as the Kardashians and Sydney Sweeney. Meanwhile, it has always been believed that their young daughter is both Orlando and Katy's priority as they navigate the huge life change, as echoed in their new message to the press. Sources have claimed that the former couple 'had to admit' they would be better parents to their four-year-old if they weren't a couple. Another insider said: 'At a certain point, they had to admit it's better for Daisy to see their parents separately, then she won't grow up feeling the tension and animosity.' The Dark Horse hitmaker and her former husband-to-be, who proposed in 2019, now want to 'protect' their 'angel' daughter against 'anything adverse'. 'They are there for Daisy and have been,' added the source. 'They want to keep a friendly relationship so each can be around her separately or together.' However, some reckon Orlando is already looking to start afresh, as he reposted another motivational quote the other day about 'new beginnings'. From the account @taomeditations, it read: 'Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters most.' As for Katy, fans have noticed she's ditched her dazzling engagement ring on public outings. Her absence from Orlando's side at the Bezos wedding also set alarm bells off, despite him continuing to 'like' her Insta posts. Over the years, Orlando and Katy have become one of showbusiness's hottest couples—and they certainly haven't been shy in sharing the more intimate details about their relationship. Who could forget Katy's Call Her Daddy podcast interview last year, in which she confessed she'd perform oral sex on her man if he washed the dishes? More Trending On a less explicit note, though, she has spoken about her love for him, such as her interview on SiriusXM mid-pandemic. 'What I have actually learned, some of the positive… because he's seen it all, and God bless him, he's still here,' she said of quarantining together. 'It's amazing and commendable. I have definitely tested him, like… 'Oh, yeah, you think you can handle me?'' In a previous post for his first Father's Day, she also described him as 'the healer of [her] heart and the giver of my greatest gift'. Got a story?
