Yet Lauren put the drama behind her on Wednesday as she enjoyed a socially-distanced walk in her local park.

The reality star showcased her voluptuous curves in a pair of black high-waisted and figure-hugging flared leggings.

Lauren teamed the item of clothing with a deep plunging skintight white vest top, which displayed her very ample assets.

The former TOWIE star finished her look with a black Prada handbag, a pink velvet scrunchie and white platform trainers.

The images and videos were shared on Lauren’s friend John Haynes’ Instagram page over the weekend, who the TOWIE star branded her ‘boyfriend’. 

Lauren’s spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘Lauren was unaware she wasn’t allowed friends in her house. She was informed this was allowed and that lockdown rules had been lifted slightly…

‘She had also seen people having similar gatherings on other people’s Instagram stories. 

‘Lauren has been told to look at the government website and now understands the guidelines’. 

The representative added: ‘Lauren isn’t in a relationship. Her saying that John was her boyfriend was a joke.’

Lauren has been using her time in lockdown to promote her line of tanning products. 

Plugging her new project, the Celebs Go Dating star captioned her posts: ‘Life is so much better with a tan ! I feel like I can face the world it’s brand new and it’s better and my tan is back.

‘And I’m so happy with the results it makes my skin tanned smoothe and sunkissed! It’s vegan and comes in 4 shades! We also supply the best mitts that are double lined so no streaks! Visit the website www.lgbeauty.com and check for yourself.’ [sic]

Since being propelled to the spotlight on the ITVBe show in 2010, Lauren has openly admitted to undergoing a nose job, boob job, liposuction to rid her of ‘lumps and bumps’ and fillers in the past.

Last March, she vowed never to get facials fillers again after claiming jaw fillers left her looking like Jim Carrey’s 1994 character The Mask, and insisted she was off the fillers having had her face drained.

During an appearance on This Morning, the brunette said: ‘I don’t have surgery on my face – I have had done, I’ve had things removed, I enhance my face with make-up and lip liner and things like that’.

It’s been a tough time for the beautician, who was forced to shut her salon Lauren’s Way as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
