It seems like just yesterday Made in Chelsea introduced us to American girlie Lauren Sintès, but after less than two years on the show, the model has declared she is 'done'.
Taking to TikTok this week, Lauren (and her cute little doggo) revealed that she would be quitting the show and talk about ruining our bank holiday weekend.
Sure, Lauren does tend to vocalize her opinions rather loudly and, yes, she does use colourful language, but it's what makes her, her. Plus there is not one other cast member that has their pals backs like Lauren does. We will not be taking questions at this time.
She told her followers, 'I'm come on here for once and for all because there's been a lot of - I don't even know what the word is - there's a lot going on online,' she explained, 'I'm going to start by saying my time on the show has come to an end.'
No, we're not crying, it's just hay fever.
'Some people might be very happy to hear that, some people maybe not,' she went on, and we would like to have a word with those who ARE happy to hear the news that Lauren is leaving MIC.
'I am definitely happy and sticking by my decision,' she confessed, and as much as we hate to see her go, of course, Lauren's happiness is the most important aspect here.
Her news comes just a few days after her feud with Zeyno Taylan reached the world of social media, when Zeyno - who Lauren recently clashed with on the show - posted a video calling her co-star a 'mean girl' and a 'hypocrite'.
'I was kind of emotionally done, but then I was like, "oooh Maldives," I should have stuck to my gut decision and not done it because I think my frustration with many people on the show definitely came out,' Lauren went on, and we love that it was a trip to Maldives that convinced her to stay for one more season.
'I do understand that my delivery could be better,' she admitted referring to her tendency to be a tad, 'blunt' during altercations with other cast members, 'but my intention behind it is always good.'
She continued, 'I would think a fellow cast member wouldn't like put content out there and engage in trolling because we all know what's it like to be on the brunt of it.'
Although Zeyno's name wasn't mentioned, after the past week, we are pretty sure that's who she is talking about.
'She's been on the brunt of trolling too, so why do that?' Lauren continued, 'You don't see me posting content to further the trolling.'
Unsurprisingly, Lauren's fans are gutted to see her leave the reality TV show and, naturally, her comments are brimming with love.
'Lauren, genuinely as a woman watching the show, it’s been so refreshing and validating how you stand up for the other girls. You are the perfect antidote to pick me behaviour and never dim yourself,' one person wrote, with another adding, 'devastated, your realness and transparency is so refreshing and i honestly wish I was around more women like you. Having said that, doing what’s best for you is the most powerful thing you can do - wishing you all the happiness xx.'
But it was former Chelsea queen Bella Sharpe's comment that had us giggling as she simply commented, 'Welcome to the good side sis.'
