Lauren was left devastated last July when she confirmed her second daughter Lorena tragically passed away following complications at birth in an Instagram post.

The doting mother shared her daughters with ex-boyfriend Charles Drury. 

It is believed their relationship ended badly last year, and at the funeral of their second daughter, Lorena, it is alleged Lauren was attacked and she was left with a black eye.

Charles Drury, 25, was later arrested and bailed following the incident, which he has denied.

Now Lauren is putting her energy into being the best mum for LaRose.

She said: "I've taken time out for myself.

I have archived my Instagram posts, not deleted them for good, so some of them could make a return.

I'm just starting afresh, but i'm still doing my charity work for Lorenna's cause which is so important to me.

"I am just so glad to be back.

"This is my first showbiz event in two years and it is for such a good cause."
