Now, though, after a period of seemingly never-ending heartache, Lauren, 36, exclusively tells new she is ready to meet someone to settle down with and have another child.
“I’m still fun, but I’m not the Faces Lauren, living her best life, I’m now mum Lauren. This is really new to me. Whenever I’ve got in a relationship, it’s just me. But now I’ve got a daughter I’m a different person. I’m a mum and a woman – I’ve grown.” Reflecting on the heartache and tragedies of last summer, Lauren says she had been functioning on autopilot and at the time wasn’t properly able to process the death of her baby.
“Now that things are calming down a little bit and time is going on, it’s registering. It’s really hard and I would do anything to have Lorena.” Lauren, who has spoken of her own “complicated” upbringing as she moved between her parents’ homes, says, “I do reach out to people, I go and see my friends, my family, but I am craving that at the minute – I’m craving that family unit and that comfort.
“I wouldn’t be able to carry on without her. I went through so much in such a short space of time, it was so much shock and pain. It’s just heartbreaking. No mum should ever go through that. But when it comes to marking the first anniversary of her baby’s death, she has made no plans and admits to being “nervous about it”.
“Larose has learnt the word yellow and she says yellow a lot. The reader said to me, ‘There’s yellow around Lorena’ and I said, ‘That’s really weird because I’ve been saying yellow all week’. Larose will feel her more than me.
