And yesterday Lauren revealed that her daughter was called Larose.

Explaining the reason behind the unusual moniker, Lauren has now shared that it is a tribute to herself.

She said: "I decided to call her Larose because my great-nan was called Rose and I’m named Lauren Rose after her.

"So I decided to name my daughter that after me."

It’s unique and we haven’t heard of anyone else who has it."

Lauren added to : "It feels so special to name my baby that.

"Charlie and I loved the name so much and came up with it together as it’s unique and we haven’t heard of anyone else who has it."

And the name has had the seal of approval from her nearest and dearest, who have been sending personalised cards and gifts to the new addition.

Lauren shared one of the congratulatory cards yesterday, which is when the name was first revealed.

The former Towie star had been desperate to give birth after the heat made her exceptionally uncomfortable at nine months pregnant - with her body covered in an itchy and sore rash.

She confessed that she and her beau had been having sex "all the time" in a bid to speed up labour.

Lauren and Charlie enjoyed a whirlwind romance and went public with their relationship in October last year - with the star falling pregnant shortly afterwards.
