The Only Way is Essex star Lauren took to Instagram to open up about going to the funeral of her grandfather, Ken. "RIP grandad Ken," Lauren wrote. "Today we said goodbye to grandad Ken, was a beautiful send off for you," she wrote.
"Thought are with family today, and very proud of all the childhood memories I have with you. Heaven takes another angel. "It comes two months after the former TOWIE regular, 36, shared how the stress she suffered after losing baby Lorena left her unable to eat.
She said: “I lost nearly three stone after I lost Lorena because of the stress. I didn’t eat. I’m now eating again and I’ve put a stone back on because I’m being more healthy.

This year is about focusing on me and getting back on track,” the 36-year-old added. Lorena, Lauren’s second daughter with her ex, Charles Drury, died on 8 July after being born with the umbilical cord knotted and around her neck.
The tragedy came only days after Lauren’s former partner Jake McLean was killed in a car crash in Turkey. Lauren went on to say that Larose, her one-year-old daughter with Charles, is her “rock” and “inspiration” and makes her feel a proud mum. She said: “She’s the best.
She’s the cheekiest little girl you will come across. " She added: "She’s already an intelligent and independent woman. She makes me so proud every single day.
She’s unbelievable. She’s my rock. "When we spoke to Lauren on the night, she added that her little girl is her "inspiration" and wouldn't "survive without her".
