Lauren Goodger took to Instagram on Tuesday to share her sadness following the tragic death of her newborn daughter.

The former TOWIE star, 35, uploaded her first post since revealing the heartbreaking news on Sunday that her baby had died.

In her Instagram Stories, she played the emotional A Mother's Prayer by Celine Dion.

She simply added a broken heart emoji as the words scrolled across a black background.

It's the first post she's put up herself since announced the death of baby Lorena, while a spokesperson has said Lauren and boyfriend Charles Drury were overwhelmed and touched by the amount of support they received.

On Sunday, the reality TV star uploaded a black-and-white photo of her holding the hand of her child.

She accompanied it with the devastating news of the baby's passing. She wrote: "Lorena. R.I.P 08.07.22 she was the most beautiful healthy baby I’ve ever seen just like her sister @babylarose.x

"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.

"There was no pregnancy or labour complications and she was fine & healthy but I am not going into detail right now just know that there was nothing wrong with her or myself she was perfect I can’t understand it she is so so beautiful Larose twin so similar."
