Lauren Goodger has said she misses ex-boyfriend Jake McLean as she posted a photo of them tenderly kissing during their time as a couple.
Jake passed away in a car crash in Turkey in July which left his on-off TOWIE girlfriend Yazmin Oukhellou in a critical condition.
The businessman died instantly when his Mercedes careered off the road, plunging 30ft down a ravine in Bodrum.
The Only Way is Essex star Yazmin Oukhellou was also in the wreckage and was forced to snap her own arm in a desperate bid to escape.
At the time of the crash, Yazmin and Jake were said to have been on holiday in Turkey, where Jake was thought to have been involved in a business deal.

Two months on from the incident, Jake's former partner Lauren took to her Instagram story to reveal he was still in her thoughts.
Alongside a loved-up snap, Lauren wrote: "Aww wish I could just talk you again I would need that right now for sure."
Lauren and Jake dated from 2012 to 2016, and had reportedly got back together two years ago for a short while.
The 35-year-old has endured a tough few months after her second daughter died shortly after she was born in July.
Lauren has previously spoken about the experience of losing Lorena in an interview, when she shared that her midwife struggled to find a heartbeat after her contractions began.
She said that Lorena was born shortly afterwards but had the cord around her neck, with Lauren saying that staff at the hospital attempted to save her life.
A funeral was then held for baby Lorena last month, just weeks after Lauren had shared the heartbreaking news that her newborn daughter had died.
Lauren has since been open about her grief to her followers on Instagram.
As well as this, her boyfriend Charles Drury was arrested following an alleged assault on Lauren, on the night of their baby's funeral in August.
Charles, who is father to both Larose, one, and Lorena, has categorically denied the alleged attack, saying: "There’s a completely different side to stuff."
Lauren recently penned a message to her one-year-old daughter Larose where she said she is 'protecting' her.
Lauren said: "You are my only and my everything.. I am so sorry you have been let down I'll explain when your older.. Mummy got you always and forever & I'm protecting you from the bad people I love you so much..
"I cry everyday when I see your little face every morning and every night and you look around and it's just always Mummy.."
Lauren continued: "I am so sorry I have no words it's like a bad dream that's turned into a nightmare we don't deserve this.
"I'm so so sorry but you are so loved and I'll never leave you I'd live in a shed to make sure I had you close Larose Goodger."
