Former TOWIE star Lauren Pope, 40, has revealed she has split from her boyfriend of five years Tony Keterman, just 17 months after they welcomed their second child together.
Sharing an update with her 1.1million Instagram followers on Tuesday night, the reality star confessed that ‘a lot has been going on in the background as I have been adjusting to life as a single mum of two.’
She didn’t go into detail about shock split but insisted ‘I’m on this journey with as much positivity as humanly possible especially with everything going on in the world right now,’ before sharing tips on her new life as a single mum.
Lauren and her millionaire boyfriend welcomed a baby girl named Leni Star in June 2022, a big sister for their little girl Raine, three, who she gave birth to in 2020, shortly after making the decision to step away from the spotlight to focus on family.
Sharing a video of herself and her two girls, Lauren told her followers: ‘I know that so many of you will be in the same situation & I hope that together we can navigate through this. You are not alone, I’m here living it with you.

Speaking to MailOnline in a rare interview, the beauty discussed the ‘tough’ birth of her baby girl, but insisted she felt at her ‘most content.’
She said: ‘It’s still so surreal that she’s finally here after all these months, I just can’t stop staring at her beautiful little face.
