Lauren Goodger reveals broken promise made by Mark Wright before he married Michelle Keegan and claims the ex TOWIE star ignores her even though they attend the same gym

As I delve deeper into the lives of these former reality stars, I can’t help but feel a pang of empathy for Lauren and Mark, whose journey through fame was as tumultuous as a roller coaster ride. They were young, naive, and thrust into the limelight, their every move scrutinized by millions. If only they had stuck together during those trying times, they might have weathered the storm of reality TV fame more gracefully.


Lauren Goodger disclosed that prior to his marriage with actress Michelle Keegan, Mark Wright had pledged to construct their initial home jointly with her.

In a reminiscent moment, the TOWIE celebrity, aged 37, reflects on conversations with her former partner about his aspirations for the future. During their relationship spanning over a decade, she expresses her yearning for marriage and starting a family together.

However, Lauren claims that she was compelled to observe as Mark, who married Michelle nine years prior, successfully constructed a property from the ground up.

Lauren thinks that the affection between childhood sweethearts continues to exist, and she feels ‘satisfied’ or ‘pleased’ with how Mark has evolved from a reality television personality into a television host.

Though they share the same gym, Lauren asserts that she and her ex-partner do not engage in any meaningful conversations, despite frequently encountering one another.

Lauren mentioned that he had taken her to a location close to where they resided, and said, “One day, I’ll own a house here, and I’ll construct it. Would you like that too?

Indeed, I do share that desire as well. I long for a family life, which includes having children and getting married. However, he has already taken that step, but his journey has led him elsewhere. It’s not a path we are walking together anymore.

Lauren began a relationship with Mark during their teenage years, prior to becoming known through the ITVBe reality show “The Only Way Is Essex.

After an on/off relationship which was heavily documented on the show, they split for good in 2012.

Nine years back, Mark tied the knot with ex-Coronation Street actress Michelle, and they reside in a luxurious mansion in Essex, equipped with a gym and an outdoor pool, which he has been meticulously improving for several months now. (Heart Radio host)

Lauren added: ‘I don’t think that sort of love from childhood goes away.

As a devoted admirer, I may not be experiencing those emotions currently, but I’m incredibly proud of him. It’s possible that he might not realize this, as the media has been quite vocal about their take on him, and he might assume these sentiments originate from me. However, in truth, I haven’t shared much about him before.

Regarding her latest relationships, including her ex-boyfriend Charles Drury, who is the father of her child Larose, Lauren acknowledges that Mark held a special place as the greatest love in her life.

During a conversation with Married At First Sight UK’s Paul Brunson on the podcast “We Need To Talk”, Lauren expresses her view that her relationship with Mark was unstable due to both of them engaging in mental manipulation, yet their shared emotions for one another repeatedly drew them together.

Lauren mentioned that she had never imagined falling in love with someone else, as she had spent a total of twelve years, both together and apart, with him.

Our relationship wasn’t always straightforward; it had its ups and downs. We parted ways for a few months, then reconciled, but through it all, we matured side by side. Essentially, we both grew up together.

In him, I found the one who set my heart ablaze. Our bond endured for such a duration because we shared an equally ardent affection towards each other.

Undeniably, our journey has been filled with ups and downs, but I’ve always stood by his side. People often tell me, “Lauren, it seems like you were as enamored with him as he was with you.

In simpler terms, we would both feel the same kind of reciprocal jealousy, where each of us tries to make the other jealous by being involved with others, only to reunite in the end. Neither of us could live without the other.

In the reality show TOWIE, Mark gained a reputation as a ladies’ man due to his romantic entanglements with fellow cast members Sam Faiers and Lucy Mecklenburgh during their time together.

Since leaving the programme, Mark has successfully established himself as a radio and TV host. 

Previous year, he hosted a show on the BBC titled “A Wright Family Holiday,” whereas his wife, Michelle, peaked the Netflix charts worldwide with her leading role in the thriller “Fool Me Once” in January.

However, Lauren speculates that Mark’s fate may have taken a different course if they had remained supportive of each other during their peak as reality TV stars.

She acknowledged that it had become somewhat toxic on occasion, but not as harmful as what she encountered later in her life.

Absolutely! We encountered some challenging periods, I suppose you might call them difficult phases. However, keep in mind that we were young once, and going through such experiences is part of maturing. If we’d grown up a bit more and focused on specific aspects while possibly receiving assistance, we could have navigated those situations better.

On a candid talk show without limitations, Lauren shared frankly about her intricate romantic experiences, persistent battles with self-perception, and heartrending tragedy when her daughter Lorena passed away just two minutes after birth in the year 2022.

For the last two years, Lauren has been unattached, following an allegation she made against her former partner Charles, who she claimed had assaulted her during their daughter’s funeral.

In another phrasing, it was Charles who was accused of causing physical injury to Lauren, however, he was found not guilty of the attack as Lauren retracted her testimony in favor of the prosecution.

She also dated Jake McLean, who died in July 2022 in Turkey following a horror car crash.

Later on, it became clear that Jake, with Yazmin Oukhellou as his passenger, ended up driving the car even though he was more than three times above the legal alcohol limit for driving and also under the influence of cocaine.

After enduring numerous tough experiences, Lauren, who recently reappeared on TOWIE, finds solace at the gym.

In a manner reminiscent of a scripted episode from a reality show, she frequently encounters Mark while exercising, yet their interactions remain limited to silent gestures.

Lauren shared: “We cross paths, yet there’s no conversation between us. It’s rather unusual. If it seems appropriate, I’d gladly greet, but if my presence isn’t desired, I retreat.

We share the same gym membership and reside not too far apart. Occasionally, we find ourselves waiting in line together at the gym, which always seems uncomfortable for some reason.

It’s clear that he has advanced in his life’s journey. I understand the need for him to continue, and I fully support that. Similarly, I stand by my values. However, I have yet to find an opportunity to reach out and ask, “What’s up? Everything okay?” Perhaps our paths will cross again someday.

‘We’ve fallen out of touch. This is due to the fact that his life has greatly changed, and I believe it’s important to honor and respect that. He too values his partner and his new life, so we don’t communicate now.’

As a devoted admirer, I believe I’ve noticed a pattern – Mark seems to steer clear of our interactions due to his regard for Michelle. I can empathize deeply with their situation, knowing full well the relentless glare of public attention they face.

She said: ‘Listen, I actually feel a bit sorry for them because of the media. 

‘How can he be seen chatting to me? If someone took a photo of that or said something, it could cause a lot of trouble, more than what it is. So that’s where it’s difficult, and I understand that. I respect that and keep my space.’
