Lauren Goodger has opened up about her struggles I during her second pregnancy, confessing, "I don't feel like myself." The 35-year-old is due to give birth in July, but admitted she is feeling the strain as she also juggles being a mum to her 10-month-old daughter Larose.
Lauren, who is expecting another daughter with boyfriend Charles Drury, also said she is desperate to get her "mind and body back".
"This has been the hardest time I've been through. I don't feel like myself," she said. "I've been tested to the max and not had it easy, things have been made harder. I am exhausted but I have to stay focused 'cos this is temporary and I don't want to complain, as I am very lucky."
She then added on her Instagram Stories, "I'm strong & I'm a mum I will be grateful for these days I'll look back and think that was exactly how it was meant to be. And be so grateful how far I've come."
