Lauren Goodger 'returning to The Only Way Is Essex'
Lauren Goodger has reportedly been invited to return to The Only Way Is Essex.
The beauty salon owner was dropped from the ITV2 series last month after apparently clashing with producers over her lack of screen time.
Goodger, who was left out of an upcoming Marbella special, later confirmed that her future on TOWIE was undecided, saying: "There've been some issues which are currently being looked into."
According to Mr Paparazzi, bosses on the show have released a statement confirming that Goodger will remain part of the cast.
"We have all worked together to resolve the issues and can confirm that Lauren will be returning to TOWIE," they allegedly said.
Former TOWIE star Amy Childs has urged Goodger to quit the programme following rumours of her axe.
"I don't know the ins and outs of what happened as obviously I'm not a part of that anymore," the Celebrity Big Brother star said. "But if she has quit or has been axed then I think this could be a good thing.
"I reckon it's a good time for Lauren to move on from TOWIE. She has a successful business and lots of fans, so she'll be just fine with or without the show."
It was reported prior to Goodger's temporary dismissal that Jessica Wright had refused to film scenes with her.
