TOWIE star Lauren Goodger has "set records straight" after news broke recently that her ex, Mark Wright and his wife Michelle Keegan are expecting a baby. Issuing an update, Lauren explained that despite speculation suggesting that she is "devastated" by news that her ex is expecting his first child, she is anything but: "Let's get things straight. I'm not anxious, upset, or planning to leave Essex, and it didn't ruin my Christmas!".
While saying that she doesn't feel any negativity towards Mark's exciting news, she explained that she can see both sides of people's reactions. She told Closer magazine: "I get it - people will always be fascinated because Mark and I were on TV together and I always seem to get dragged back into stories about him, but how can I be devastated?".
Despite suggestions from some that she's taken the news badly, she added that she's happy for the 37-year-old and is focused on her own life: "I'm so happy he's going to be a dad, and I mean it. I've fallen in love and had two kids since (Lauren sadly lost her daughter Lorena after giving birth in July 2022 after complications) and he's a married man. It doesn't affect my life whether Mark is having a baby, I'm not obsessed with him, my life will carry on.".
Revealing that she received messages from family and friends after Michelle and Mark's news had broke asking whether she was okay, she explained that she didn't truly understand their reaction as she said: "I wish Mark and his family well and I’m sure (Mark’s mum) Carol’s over the moon, there’s no bad feeling on my part.
