Since then, Lauren has tried to turn her life around, getting a job at Roy's Rolls yet she soon resorted to crime again by blackmailing Daisy Midgeley and Ryan Connor about their affair for cash. While also last year, Ryan was horrified to learn that Lauren had been posting content on O-Vidz in a bid for money as he reported the youngster out of a sense of duty.

In upcoming scenes, newcomer Bobby tells Lauren that he knows about her O-Vidz videos and he's worried about her. However, when Lauren clams up over the bombshell, it leaves Bobby feeling frustrated. In a bid to make cash, Lauren admits to Bethany Platt that she's skint and suggests she could write an article about how she was brainwashed by a far-right group and sell it to a magazine.

Things go from bad to worse when a worried Bobby calls at the café looking for Lauren and is left even more concerned to hear that Roy sacked her. Later, Roy calls at Lauren's flat with her wages, where the youngster reveals her plans to leave Weatherfield and start afresh.

It's not long until a worried Bobby arrives at Lauren's flat and after finding the door unlocked, he decides to let himself in. However, with no sign of Lauren, Bobby sends her a text and heads out, making sure to lock the door behind him. Later, a worried Bobby shares his concerns about Lauren with Max, revealing how he found her flat door unlocked but there was no sign of her.
