Lauren Goodger has shared a heartbreaking tribute to her late daughter, Lorena, following the baby’s death last month.

The former Towie star shared in July Lorena died shortly after birth, with Lauren sharing she didn’t suffer any pregnancy or labour complications.

Lauren previously recalled watching as around 10 doctors fought to save her baby girl when they couldn’t find a heartbeat.

Now, in an emotional post on Tuesday, Lauren, 35 – who also shares daughter Larose, one, with partner Charles Drury – shared she ‘fell in love’ with her second daughter.

She wrote on her Instagram Stories this week: ‘I carried you, I felt you grow.

‘Longed for the day we’d meet. Dreamed of your future. Not only did I know you, I fell in love with you.’

The reality star added butterfly, angel and pregnancy emoji.

Lauren recently explained that she plans on having a post-mortem to determine what caused Lorena’s death, ‘for her own sanity’, as she didn’t experience complications during pregnancy, which she described as ‘textbook’, or the labour itself.

According to Lauren, Lorena was born with two knots in her cord, but babies are usually still able to get enough oxygen.

She’d planned on having a home birth led by her midwife Tamzin, and started having contractions while breastfeeding daughter Larose. However, Tamzin couldn’t hear a heartbeat and so called an ambulance which rushed Lauren to the hospital.

Recently speaking about her loss, Lauren said Lorena is ‘still there’ with her as her baby bump remained.

Describing her body as ‘unsettled’ and saying it feels like it’s ‘missing a newborn’, she told New magazine: ‘It shouldn’t happen. It breaks my heart that I won’t see her grow up.’

The TV star went on to explain how she ‘never ever thought I would have to plan a funeral for my child’.

She added: ‘I’m healing. I’m still bleeding – I feel like I’ve been run over.

‘I’m not getting anywhere by blaming myself. I have to try and move forwards and accept it. First I need to understand it. She was just perfect.’

Sharing the news Lorena had died, Lauren previously told followers she was ‘broken’, as she shared a black and white photo of her holding onto Lorena’s hand.

She wrote on Instagram: ‘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.’

Lauren went on: ‘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.
