Lauren Goodger questions whether Cheryl’s baby is ‘even real’ and calls her ‘strange’ for keeping pregnancy quiet

LAUREN Goodger has questioned whether Cheryl's baby is “even real” and thinks the pop star is "strange" to have kept her pregnancy secret.

In a candid interview with Closer Magazine, Lauren spoke about Cheryl’s impending birth.

She said: “It’s so strange that Cheryl has been so secretive about her pregnancy. I’ve questioned whether it’s even real.”

Cheryl has kept out of the spotlight since she found out she was expecting her first child with her boyfriend Liam Payne.

She's since posed for L’Oreal – showing off her bump. But baffled Lauren’s said: “I’m not sure why she’s hiding away.”

Lauren’s made no secret of her plans to start a family with jailbird boyfriend Joey Morrison.

Her plans to start trying for a baby while the 30-year-old was out of day release horrified some of her fans who believe Joey – who’s been behind bars since 2009 for possession of a firearm, kidnap and blackmail – is bad news.

Lauren has revealed she’s planning on having as many children as she can. She said: “I want ten kids. It’s going to be like the Essex Sound Of Music.

“I want as many as I can – I just need to get them out. I’ve never been a fan of twins but now I am.”

Joey will be released from HMP Highpoint South later this year and Lauren revealed he is planning on being a hands-on dad.

She added: “He loves kids and he knows that’s part of the plan. I can see him changing nappies and getting up late at night. He’s very hands on.”
