Lauren Goodger reveals the emotional reason she returned to Towie 14 years after launching the show

LAUREN Goodger has revealed the emotional reason why she has returned to Towie.

The 37-year-old shot to fame on the original series of the ITVBe show in 2010.

Last year it was revealed that she will appear on the show again, a whopping eight years after her last stint.

The reality star, who was seen filming for Towie earlier this month, revealed that her daughter Larose was the motivation behind her choice.

Talking to New magazine, Lauren said: "All my friends have got jobs and work - most mums do- and I want Larose to see that I've got a job too."

The telly legend wasn't scared to get back behind the camera.

Lauren confessed: "I wasn't nervous because Towie's sort of my home ,but I've been in a mum bubble so the first day of filming was a complete shock.

"It's like driving a car though.

"You might not do it for 10 years, but hen you get back in the driver's seat and pick it straight back up.

"You don't forget what you're doing.

"And when I was in mum mode, nothing else mattered for such a long time, but now I'm finding myself again."

Lauren was originally on Towie for two years before calling it quits.

Her on/off relationship with ex Mark Wright was one of the biggest story lines of the programme.

The former flames ended up getting engaged on the show, but it didn't work out between them and went their separate ways.

She rejoined the cast for its 19th series in 2016, but decided to not return for the 20th.

Lauren is mum to daughter Larose, who she shares with ex Charles Drury.

The former couple welcomed her into the world on July 10 2021.

Lauren tragically lost her second daughter Lorena days after giving birth in July 2022.
