The 'Only Way is Essex' star developed feelings for her 30-year-old beau - who has been sentenced to 17 years in prison for kindnap and blackmail - when he called her friend's home phone from HMP Highpoint South and she answered it.

Speaking about her love life in Channel 5's 'In Therapy', the 30-year-old beauty said: "I spoke to him on the phone. He'd rung the house phone and I chatted to him for a bit [from prison]. It's mad, I know. I know how it sounds, not like real life. Me being in love with somebody that's in prison."

Although the brunette beauty has admitted the pair are already discussing future plans to start a family when he is on day release, the couple have not got hot under the bed sheets nor shared a kiss with one another since they started dating.

Speaking about the lack of intimacy in her relationship, Lauren said: "Nothing intimate has happened between us."

And Lauren's friend, Jodi, has revealed Lauren is determined to have a baby as soon as her partner is released from his cell.

Jodi said: "She wants to have a baby while he comes out on day release.

"I don't think she sees it like he's in prison, I think she sees it like he's coming out soon."

And Lauren's other close pal, Lisa, has revealed Lauren "doesn't care" how she falls pregnant as long, as long as she does have a baby because she is infatuated with him.

She said: "She is so desperate to start a family and she loves him so much she doesn't care how it happens as long as it happens."
