Lauren Goodger has claimed she was still seeing Mark Wright when he was dating Michelle Keegan.
The former ‘The Only Way is Essex’ star was in an on/off relationship with the handsome presenter for 10 years until he fell for the ‘Our Girl’ actress, whom he has since married and moved in with, but she has revealed there was a slight cross over when he and the brunette beauty started to get together.
Speaking to new! magazine, she said: "In 2012, he got me removed from Faces nightclub. We were still sort of seeing each other and I think he’d just started seeing Michelle."
The 30-year-old reality TV babe has lashed out at her former flame after he allegedly got her "removed" from Essex restaurant Sheesh earlier this month because he wanted some grub but didn’t want to be seen or pictured nearby her.
She explained: "I think he’s always thought he’s better than me. He never wanted me on ‘TOWIE’ as it was ‘his’ show. He thinks he’s better than the show now and I come with it, so that’s why he dismisses me. It doesn’t go with his new image … I think he’s the fakest person you’ll ever meet in your life and I think he uses people to get what he wants … he needs to get over himself."
And, although she’s upset by the embarrassing incident, Lauren actually feels "sorry" for Mark and his wife Michelle because their relationship is constantly thrown into the spotlight alongside her name.
She said: "I feel sorry for them because when I get married, I don’t want them to be brought into it every two minutes. They need to be left to get on with it. But him doing this has created that, not me."
And Lauren doesn’t think her boyfriend Joey Morrison – who is currently behind bars for possession of a firearm, kidnap, blackmail, actual bodily harm and aggravated burglary – is too impressed with the incident and is convinced it wouldn’t have happened if he had been with her at the restaurant.
She added: "It’s frustrating for him because he’s in prison and he can’t do anything, so it must be upsetting for him. It would never have happened in a million years if Joey was there."
