Heartbroken Lauren Goodger slams ‘fake friends’ who failed to contact her on anniversary of daughter’s death
LAUREN Goodger has hit out at “fake friends” after some failed to contact her on the anniversary of daughter Lorena’s death.
The Towie star’s second daughter died minutes after birth in 2022, despite it being a “textbook pregnancy“.
Devastated Lauren, 37, has been open about her grief in the two years since.
She has continued to be a doting mum to eldest daughter Larose and the duo marked the anniversary date by releasing a balloon into the sky and having cake beside a wooden plaque honouring Lorena with the words “always in our hearts“.
The small plot was decorated with a pink candle, white rose, birthday card and a picture frame.
Prior to sharing footage from the special family moment, Lauren criticised some of her nearest and dearest for not supporting her.
She wrote on Instagram: “For all those that didn’t send me a message today let a call or even seen us! you are a disgrace! No respect for Lorena at all or myself or Larose!
“Some of you a re family and some are friends! But really your not genuine family of friends….
“I will only tolerate you for Larose sake but when she older she will see through it all and make her own judgment also Lorena is watching everything and if you made 0 effort to even drop me a thinking of you message, shame on you because you’ve let Lorena down also! Thanks for calling Larose today.”
Lauren previously called Lorena’s death the most “traumatic experience of my life”.
Speaking from her home in Essex in 2022, she told The Sun: “I went into hospital thinking I would come home with a baby girl but I came home with nothing.
“Lorena was a healthy baby and it was a textbook pregnancy.
“Lorena should be here with me. I held her and she looked like she was sleeping. I thought she would wake up.
“This has been the most traumatic experience of my life.”
Earlier this year she had a scary A&E dash with Larose after her daughter fell ill with a virus.
Lauren admitted losing Lorena has made her more anxious when her eldest is ill, leaving her “constantly fearing the worst”.
