Lauren Goodger shared an emotional video montage in tribute to late ex-boyfriend Jake McLean as she asked him to "look after Lorena" for her.
The TOWIE star, 35, was left devastated last month after her baby daughter Lorena died just minutes after she was born.
Earlier that month in July, Lauren's ex Jake was killed in a horror car crash in Turkey after he lost control of the vehicle and went off a cliff.
Following Jake's funeral today, Lauren took to Instagram to share a video montage of them both together. The couple had dated from 2012 until 2016, but reportedly briefly rekindled their relationship in 2020.
Captioning the video, she wrote: "R.i.p Jake you always be apart of me … we shared something for 5 years solid like no other look after Lorena for me my angel baby."
Her friends flocked to the comments to offer their condolences, with Lauryn Goodman writing: "love you stay strong!"
While another wrote: "Can’t believe what an awfully sad time you have been through lately I’m so sorry for your losses."
Lauren - who is mum to Larose - has taken a break from social media ever since sharing the news about Lorena's death on July 10.
Sharing a photo of Lorena's tiny hand in hers, she wrote: "Lorena R.I.P 08.07.22 she was the most beautiful healthy baby I’ve ever seen just like her sister @babylarose.x … 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
"There was no pregnancy or labour complications and she was fine & healthy but I am not going into detail right now just know that there was nothing wrong with her or myself she was perfect I can’t understand it she is so so beautiful Larose twin so similar.. I am broken
"I am back home from hospital Me & Charlie spent as much time with our baby girl Lorena and I haven’t said my goodbye yet.
"Please can I ask photographers to respect our privacy right now as we have a lot of grieving to do and funeral organising that I just need this time & with my baby girl Larose she is my rock that’s getting me through this or I wouldn’t survive…
" 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 [angel] Lorena I love you so much."
