As per Closer Online, Lauren Goodger and Charles Drury first came across each other online and started dating after flirting for several months. Their romance came into the limelight after Goodger posted a picture on her social media with a mysterious man who turned out to be Drury.
Three months into their relationship, the duo announced that they were expecting their first child together. They welcomed their daughter, Larose, in July 2021.
Goodger has previously gushed about her partner to Closer Online. Taking a dig at the Essex guys, she said:
"I don't ever trust anyone 100%. He's not from this area, he was born in Surrey and lived in Nottingham. He's different. He talks about 'we' - 'when we go on holiday' or 'when we go out'. We don't do anything separately. His intention is always 'we'."

Expressing her grief in an Instagram post, Lauren Goodger revealed how healthy her second child was and that she is still reeling from her demise:
"Words can’t describe as a mother losing your baby that I carried for all these months perfectly and gave birth too for my angel to be taken from me."

In light of the tragic event, Goodger shared a heartfelt message:
"I will never ever get over this but I will learn how to live everyday with Lorena in my heart she will be with me always and I will be with her again one day … My Lorena I love you so much."
The duo announced their second pregnancy in January 2022, just days after it was reported that the TOWIE star had kicked Drury out following his cheating rumors.
Speaking to OK! magazine, Lauren revealed that the duo were confused about their second pregnancy:
"We weren’t very careful and Charlie was really pleased, but being honest I was really in two minds about it. I was like, 'I’m just getting myself back together – I’m going back to square one. Is this fair?' You get real mum guilt."
Goodger and Drury broke up in November 2021 but got back together three weeks later. They split up again in January 2022 but reconciled once more in April.
