Lauren first gained fame at the age of 12 as a precocious antiques expert named James, who appeared on Antiques Roadshow and Wogan.

Since then, she has built a successful career in television and even released a single, I Am A Woman, in 2015.

These days, Lauren sells artwork through her website, with pieces ranging from £20 to £150.

In addition to her career, Lauren is also known for her gender reassignment surgery, which she underwent in 2003.

At the time, the operation was considered risky, and there were concerns that Lauren could suffer a heart attack in her 30s. However, Lauren was determined to undergo the surgery and paid £20,000 to have it done.

Speaking to the Daily Star at the time, she said: “It is a big operation and when I had it done all those years ago it was more dangerous as they didn’t know enough about it.

“There was talk that if I had it done I would have a heart attack in my 30s as my body wouldn’t be able to deal with it.

“To me, it was like get me in the kitchen, get a vet, get whoever, let’s get it done, in those days it cost me £20,000 but I think it was more then than it is now.”
