When Mark Wright proposed to Lauren Goodger in an episode of The Only Way Is Essex, even their own families weren’t convinced it was a good idea.

But now it appears the couple have split just five months after getting engaged.

The club promoter’s spokesperson confirmed they had parted ways and Wright had asked his ex-fiancée to move her belongings out of his Essex apartment.

His representative told The Sun: ‘He has no comment, except to confirm that it is over.’

Their apparent split comes as Wright travelled to Marbella without his girlfriend for a lads’ holiday, despite her insistence two months ago he would ‘never go to Marbella without me ever’.

Confusing the issue, Goodger posted a photo on Twitter of herself partying in Blackpool on Friday night still wearing her engagement ring.

The couple have yet to comment about their apparent split on their Twitter pages.

On Thursday, Goodger tweeted: ‘Hahaha! Some people really make me laugh!!! Worry about your own lives rather than others so many liars!!’

As recently as Tuesday, Wright wrote on his Twitter that he was ‘missing’ Goodger and their puppy Wrighty.

On Monday, the couple were by each other’s sides as they filmed a trailer for the upcoming third series of TOWIE.



The couple have dated on and off since meeting when they were 14.

When Series One of TOWIE kicked off last October, viewers discovered they had split up that July, but were struggling to move on.

Although Wright started dating fashion worker Lucy Mecklenburgh, it was revealed in the climax of the Series 1 that he had still been sleeping with Goodger.

He also had an on/off fling with Sam Faiers and brief romance with I’m A Celebrity pin-up Kayla Collins before getting back with and proposing to Goodger on the same day in March – all for the cameras in an episode of Series 2.

Following their engagement, Goodger moved into Wright’s Abridge flat and they cemented their relationship by getting a dog last month.

However, their romance was rocked in May when Mecklenburgh claimed she and Wright had a ‘drunken kiss’ during their holiday in Marbella.

Goodger and Wright have repeatedly denied speculation their engagement was faked for the ITV2 reality show.
