Lauren Goodger posts pic of ex Jake McLean – and reveals they’re BACK TOGETHER

What a week it’s been for Lauren Goodger. First she was slammed by ex Mark Wright on Twitter for supposedly mentioning him and his new wife Michelle Keegan too much in interviews, then when she tried defending herself everyone told her to get over it.

And NOW we can reveal that the ex-TOWIE star is definitely back with her ex Jake McLean, as we reported yesterday.

Lauren posted a picture of Jake to her Instagram this morning, captioning it: “Abu Dhabi you've been amazing! Thanks to this special boy for my surprise romantic getaway #spoilt.”

Jake, if the name rings a bell to you, was the guy thought to be in Lauren’s sex tape, which leaked last year.

The couple have been dating on and off since autumn 2012, after Jake was released from jail where he was serving a sentence for a violent robbery.

According to sources, it was Jake who surprised her with her trip to Dubai while they were out in neighbouring Abu Dhabi – which is why so many people jumped on her being in the same destination as Mark and Michelle.

Lauren's rep released a statement after Mark's Twitter rant yesterday confirming that the 28-year-old is no longer single:

“Lauren has privately been in a relationship too and this unwanted attention surrounding her ex of many years ago is certainly not welcomed,” it said.
