put on a very busty display in a strappy top as she posed for a stunning Instagram selfie on Monday. The former TOWIE star, 38, wowed in the plunging black number which featured white trims - after vowing to get her 'bikini body' back. She accessorised with a dainty gold necklace and kept her brunette tresses swept into a messy updo. Lauren proceeded to share another gorgeous clip on her instagram stories, informing her 948K followers that she had hayfever. 'When you have 101 things to do... And for some reason got hayfever (I'm not a sufferer),' she captioned the video while showing off her surgically-enhanced features. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the lo op. It comes after the reality sensation revealed what a typical food day looks like for her earlier this month. The TV personality has been open with fans about her struggles with her weight in the past, and even previously admitted that she was 'bored of her curves' and wanted to get 'really skinny'. Revealing what her meals usually look like, Lauren explained that she wakes up and has a coffee because she isn't usually hungry in the morning. Lauren, who said she spends around £50 a week on her food shop, will wait until lunch before having a tuna jacket potato and salad. She said that for dinner she will have something like steak with broccoli and sautéed potatoes or mash. Otherwise, she will swap the steak for baked salmon with chilli and lemon, but admitted she isn't 'the best cook'. Speaking to Closer magazine in their 'fridge raider' segment, Lauren spoke about what she treats herself to. She said: 'I've been getting Turkish food deliveries, because it's easy, healthy food. I'll get chicken shish, hummus, pitta, rice and salad. 'I don't tend to snack. I prefer real food. I'd rather have a toastie than a bag of crisps.' When asked about what her guilty pleasure was, she said: 'Indian food. I can't handle hot spices, but I love a sweet dish like a korma with rice and naan.' When it comes to kicking a hangover, Lauren relies on carbs which will either be a McDonald's burger, or tea and toast. Back in December 2023, Lauren declared she wants to get 'really skinny' and claimed she is 'bored of her curves and big a**', after she admitted to having a bum lift and breast implants. The beauty previously committed to a new health kick after she admitted earlier that year that she found herself 'ordering takeaways' when she became a mother. And it seems Lauren is set on achieving her fitness goals as she revealed she is determined to lose weight. Speaking to Closer Magazine, she explained: 'I want to get really skinny. I'm bored with my curves and a big a*** - I'm over it.' Lauren admitted that while she has no idea what dress size she is at the moment she fits into Zara size 12 trousers, but added that they are stretchy. She continued: 'I don't know what size I want to go down to, it's more about how I feel.' Lauren finally admitted she underwent a Brazilian bum lift after previously denying having the procedure to plump up her behind. As the TOWIE star prepared to revert to a more nature look, she revealed she had the op in 2017 and also had her breasts enlarged in 2013 from a 34D to a 34E. Lauren said she 'has been unhappy for a while' and plans to tone down her look to be more 'natural'. She told OK! Magazine: 'For a couple of years now I've been thinking, "Why did I ever get my boobs done?" I haven't been happy for a while, but when I fell pregnant with Larose, my boobs became even bigger and I hated the way I looked. 'I look back at old pictures before the boob job and I had lovely boobs. I just wish I could go back to natural Lauren.' The TV personality explained how she jetted off to Turkey for a BBL and described it as 'the worst experience' of her life.

Lauren Goodger shares huge milestone after suffering severe trauma and anxiety
ITVBe's The Only Way Is Essex star Lauren Goodger has teased a return to the reality show with a trip overseas for the first time since the tragic death of her second daughter Lauren Goodger has confirmed she will be travelling abroad for the first time in five years soon as she joins the cast of The Only Way is Essex on a filming trip to Portugal. The 37-year-old reality star, who rose to fame on the 2010 series of the ITVBe show, shared the news about this personal milestone on Instagram. Goodger posted a glam selfie to her story, gushing: "I am going on my first TOWIE away trip to Portugal very soon!! My first TOWIE trip in 10 years – I'm so excited! This is a huge deal for me but this is the perfect timing. "I've not been away on holiday abroad in five years, due to my severe trauma and anxiety. However, the TOWIE bosses are who I feel most comfortable with to be going abroad to help with this." The reality star was last spotted abroad in 2019, when she was photographed on holiday in Marbella. Her decision to join the cast overseas has come after a difficult few years that were marked by personal traumas such as the tragic loss of her second daughter, a serious accident, and ongoing mental health struggles. In July 2022 Goodger's second child tragically died two days after being born. Lauren has spoken publicly about the profound impact Lorena's death had on her, describing herself as a "grieving mother" and regularly sharing how the experience has affected her mental health. The TV personality currently shares her three-year-old daughter Larose with ex-partner Charles Drury. In May last year she was left in a state of panic when the girl came down with a virus, leaving Lauren unable to sleep for three nights out of fear that she would lose Larose, too. She described the incident as "three days and three nights of hell", telling followers: "I am full of anxiety when my baby is not well. In constant fear of the worst." In May 2024, Goodger also revealed she had been involved in an accident where she tripped and fell in the middle of a busy road. The incident left her with multiple injuries and made her decide to take a break from social media. "Today I had a horrible accident. Got seven wounds on my body," she wrote at the time in a concerning Instagram post. "Luckily the cars stopped and I sat in the road while strangers came to help me." The former TOWIE star later said that the fall happened during a week when she was very emotionally distressed after being triggered by several personal issues and ongoing anxiety. She described her mental state at the time as "running on empty" and said she was struggling to sleep through the night and felt emotionally exhausted. Thankfully Goodger seems to be healing from these painful experiences now, and has spoken about using exercise and therapy to help her recover from the trauma of losing her daughter.
