Lauren Goodger's pals fear she's back with Charles Drury months after his arrest
Lauren Goodger could refuse to cooperate with police in an investigation over an alleged assault last year, a source has claimed.
The former TOWIE star's nearest and dearest fear her decision not to assist in the investigation against ex- boyfriend, Charles Drury, may result in her forgiving him and taking him back in the future.
Three close friends of Lauren's, 36, have now claimed that the former couple have been in contact with one another again over the past two months – news that will worry her loved ones.
“We are worried she has taken him back but is keeping it quiet,” one source told.
“We have heard they are even in talks to move out of Essex together. Her friends are concerned after everything she’s been through. They don’t want her to get hurt and they just want the best for her. But it seems she wants to be with him, despite her friends and family telling her not to be.”

“Deep down Lauren wants that family unit and she wants that perfect family with both a mum and a dad in a house because she didn’t have that. That’s the dream for her," a second source told OK! Magazine.
Elsewhere, a third source close to the reality TV star reiterated claimed that Lauren and Charles have reunited, saying “she wants to keep it on the down-low”.

"While this is an ongoing police matter – to that there is no comment – Lauren is focused on positive lines of communications and her priority being that of her daughter," Lauren's team shared.
Charles, 25, was arrested in August last year after reports suggested an alleged assault on Lauren, 36, at their home on the night of their daughter Lorena’s funeral.

“Lauren is considering not helping the police with this matter,” one of the sources told OK! Magazine. “She wants a clean slate and a fresh start to the year and doesn’t want the drama of last year hanging over her. Charles is always going to be in her life as he is the father of her girls. She wants to move forwards, not backwards.”
Lauren and Charles first started dating in October 2020.

Lauren then faced heartbreak when she discovered Charles had a fling with Instagram model Amy Gilbert during their separation, which led to her kicking him out of their house.
The pair were back on track and all appeared to be forgive a few months later as the on-off couple confirmed their romance was back on, with Lauren announcing she was pregnant with their second child just a few short months later.

Tragically, their daughter Lorena died shortly after her birth in July last year – and on the night of her funeral Lauren was allegedly assaulted.
The claims have been denied by Charles.
