Lauren Goodger treats jailbird boyfriend to £500 pair of Chanel trainers for Christmas
She can’t spend Christmas behind bars with him but she can treat him to some designer shoes
TOWIE star Lauren Goodger has treated her jailbird lover to a pair of very expensive new trainers.
The Essex glamour giel has splashed out on a pair of £500 black Chanel trainers for Joey Morrison – who’s serving an 18-year sentence for a string of offences including drug-dealing, possessing a firearm, kidnap, blackmail and ABH.
Lauren posted a picture of fancy trainers, which match a pair she owns, on Instagram with the caption: “His and hers”.
Joey’s sister later jokingly commented: “What about the sis in law?”
She told Closer Magazine: “I really wanted to see him over the Christmas Day but sadly the prison is closed.
“I wanted to take him a Christmas meal but I’m not allowed to.
“I’ve already sent him trainers and tracksuits – but that’s all I can send!”
Lauren doesn’t call Joey her boyfriend but she’s made her feelings about him clear.
The pair have known each other for nine years and Towie favourite Lauren feels the public don’t understand their relationship.

She told Closer Magazine: “It’s really narrow-minded that people see him as a criminal.
“Yes, he’s not been an angel but people deserve a second chance and his crimes never involved innocent people.”
Lauren’s looking to the future now and adds: “He’s done half his time and he should be out in a couple of months.
“I can’t wait! I’m going to hold a party for him, his family and our mutual friends.”
It seems starting a family is very much in her plans, with broody Lauren saying “I’ll have [a baby] next year” before admitting she’d love to have two children.
She added: “I’m so excited about having a baby. There will be a LG range and everything.”
In September it was revealed that Lauren was permitted to spend time with the Essex convict in the open prison’s “informal environment” and the pair are said to have been getting rather cosy.
A source said: “I’ve seen Lauren there visiting Joey a couple of times and they look incredibly close.
“Joey’s been a bad lad over the years but he’s got links to Essex so she’s probably known him some time.
They added to the : “They look every bit like a couple and that’s what everyone in the prison thinks is going on.”
