Lauren Goodger has paid tribute to her late daughter Lorena, who tragically died shortly after being born.

The former The Only Way Is Essex star, 35, lit a candle for her baby on Friday and shared a touching tribute with her social media followers.

Lauren shared a video of the candle to her Instagram Stories. A message on it read: "Our angel baby.

"We'll love you forever, we'll remember you always, as long as we're living, our baby you'll be. Fly high little one."

A second candle read: "I love you to the moon and back," which had been placed on top of books to help deal with the grief of losing a baby.
