Lauren left the ITV constructed reality show in 2019, stating at the time that: "After an amazing nine years on The Only Way is Essex I have decided that now is the natural time for me to leave.
"I am incredibly thankful for the opportunities that the show has brought my way and have loved being part of the cast. On top of that, Lime [Pictures, who make the show] have become an extended family to me and I’ll be forever grateful for their guidance and support over the years.
"Nonetheless, I feel now is the time for me to move on so I can focus my attention wholeheartedly on my business ventures and personal relationship."
The Only Way Is Essex airs on ITVBe.
