Lauren Goodger admits she's 'done with bad boys' as she eyes up future dates

Lauren Goodger has opened up about dating, admitting she’s done with being in relationships with “bad boys”.

The TOWIE star, who is in lockdown at her Essex home, has witnessed many rocky romances with former beaus including her two-year relationship with Joey Morrison.

Lauren and Joey started dating in 2016, but he was sentenced to jail time in 2018 for crimes including possession of a firearm, kidnapping, blackmail, and actual bodily harm.

Ahead of that relationship, Lauren dated Jake McLean, who was jailed for three-and-a-half years after conning his way into a mother’s house, overpowering her before a masked gang ran in and raided the family home.

Lauren, who shot to fame as Mark Wright’s other half on TOWIE, has said she is done with “bad boys” in a new candid interview.

Speaking about her past relationships, she told Closer magazine: “I don’t like bad boys – I won’t be going for one again. They’re not my usual type.

“Mark wasn’t a bad boy and neither was Jake. I want someone who’s genuine and could be a good father. I’d go out with a normal bloke who works in an office – if he’s fit.”

Lauren added that she wouldn’t say no to a hunk in uniform.

“I’d love a man in a uniform, like a doctor or a policeman. Those types of men are heroes.”

With her makeup and breakups a strong talking point in the media and online, the brunette beauty confessed she has no regrets about her relationships airing in the limelight.

Talking about The Only Way is Essex, she continued: “The whole show was about my love life and girls could relate to me. I was hurt, I was in love, and engaged.

“That relationship lasted 12 years, ten years prior to TOWIE, and two years during it.”
