Reality TV star Lauren Goodger has opened up about the news that her ex Mark Wright is expecting a baby with his wife Michelle Keegan.
Michelle, 37, announced her pregnancy in a joint post with her husband Mark, also 37, just after Christmas. The couple, who have been together since around 2013, teased in the post that this year is "going to be a special one" for them.
There has since been attention on his ex-fiancée Lauren, 38, with whom radio host Mark previously had a decade-long relationship. The former couple are said to have dreamt of a future together before parting ways for good in 2012.
Shortly after the news of Michelle's pregnancy was revealed, it was reported that Lauren was "devasted" and there has since been further speculation about the former the Only Way is Essex cast member. She's now addressed the situation and said that she is "happy" for him, as well as dismissing any suggestion that she's "obsessed" with her ex-partner. Lauren said in a recent interview: "I'm so happy he's going to be a dad, I mean it. [...] It doesn't affect my life whether Mark is having a baby, I'm not obsessed with him, my life will carry on."
