Lauren Goodger confirms she’s returning to TOWIE and shows off her natural pout on Loose Women
Lauren said she can't wait to be on the reality show as 'one of the girls'
LAUREN Goodger has confirmed she's returning to TOWIE and says viewers will get to know the "real her" without the drama.
Speaking on Loose Women today, Lauren said she will be back on the next series of the ITVBE reality show.
Lauren was an original TOWIE cast member from 2010 but quit the show in 2012 after starring in 63 episodes.
She said: "I was meant to be in this series but I couldn't because of personal reasons but I am doing the next series.
"I've had a chat with the execs, they're so nice and they said the door is always open to come back.
"They said 'we miss you and we want you to come back'.
"I said I'd love to come in as Lauren, so people can see who Lauren is because no one actually knows who I am.
She continued: "I've always been in a drama or in a relationship on TV and now it's about me, I have no drama.
"So I can go on now and be one of the girls.
"There's loads of things I can do, help the girls out."
Meanwhile, the 29-year-old also showed off her more natural look after having her lip fillers removed.
Speaking about the decision, she said: "People were saying to me, 'You don't need it."
"And my doctor said why don't you let me take them out and if you don't like it I'll put them back in.
"I've got quite big lips anyway so I decided to leave them out."
The reality star also ruled out having any more cosmetic procedures for the foreseeable future.
She said: "Maybe after I have kids I might but right now I'm happy with how I am, I don't think I need to do anything."
