"She was perfect": Reality star's heartbreaking loss
Lauren Goodger, a 35-year-old popular model and reality TV star based in the UK, has shared the devastating news that her newborn baby daughter Lorena has passed away at just two years of age.
In a heartbreaking post on social media, Goodger shared a touching black-and-white image of her holding her baby's hand and made the tragic announcement.
"She was the most beautiful healthy baby I've ever seen," wrote Goodger. "Words can't describe, as a mother losing, your baby that I carried for all these months perfectly and gave birth too, for my angel to be taken from me."
While Goodger did not give any indication of the cause surrounding her daughter's death, she did stress that there were no issues with the birth.
"There were no pregnancy or labour complications and she was fine and healthy but I am not going into detail right now. Just know that there was nothing wrong with her or myself," wrote Goodger. "She was perfect."
Goodger and her partner Charles Drury have also asked for privacy as they grieve and prepare funeral arrangements.
"I will never get over this but I will learn how to live everyday with Lorena in my heart. She will be with me always and I will be with her again one day… My Lorena I love you so much."
Goodger's announcement was met with an outpouring of love and support. She currently lives with her partner and young daughter Larose, who was born in January 2021.
