Lauren Goodger’s boyfriend Charles Drury speaks out on marriage plans after birth of their baby girl

Lauren Goodger’s boyfriend Charles Drury has spoken about the future of his relationship with the former TOWIE star, saying he plans to marry her ‘all in good time’.

The loved-up couple went public with their romance in October last year and welcomed baby daughter Larose together last month.

Charles, 24, was quizzed by the pair’s fans on Instagram on Saturday about the next stage of their union, with Charles saying: ‘Lauren is just waiting for the day I get down on one knee – all in good time.’

Lauren, 34, welcomed 8lb 9oz Larose on July 20 with her beau, and Charles says ‘dad life’ now means ‘every day is a dream’.

The couple are happily enjoying life with their newborn and say they are excited about having Larose there on their wedding day.

Charles told new! magazine: ‘Some people say you should be married before you have children but everyone goes at their own pace and I’m actually quite happy now that we’re going to be able to share that day with Larose and that’s going to be a magical moment.’

Speaking out: In response to a question about the couple getting married, Charles wrote: ‘Lauren is just waiting for the day I get down on one knee – all in good time.’

Lauren has ruled out having a second child anytime soon as she wants to focus on her family.

The reality star opened up about her painful drug-free home birth to the publication, saying her placenta resembled a stingray.

She said: ‘My placenta was bigger than the baby so no wonder I had such a big bump!

‘It came out like an animal, it looked like a stingray. Then they checked me and I didn’t need any stitches and I didn’t tear. Now I’m just letting my body heal. I’m still bleeding and my bump is going down.’

The television personality recently revealed her natural drug-free home birth with Larose left her ‘screaming for help’ as the contractions took hold.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, Lauren said she had endured her labour with only gas and air for relief.

She said: ‘It came out like an animal, it looked like a stingray. Then they checked me and I didn’t need any stitches and I didn’t tear. Now I’m just letting my body heal’

She said: ‘I had a natural home birth with no drugs and the midwife said she’d never seen someone give birth so textbook the way I did. I had a bit of gas and air, which we ran out of and they had to go to hospital to get some more, but I was in my zone and I did it.

Lauren said the magnitude of the labour pains made her feel like ‘I was about to die’, with the star already 8cm dilated when she was checked by a midwife. Contractions then followed every 30 seconds.

The former TOWIE star said: ‘Oh my Lord! I was in my front room screaming, “Please, someone help me!”… It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in all my life.’

Revealing that she received a burst of energy when she got to the final stages of her labour, Lauren detailed how Larose was delivered as she was standing up.

Lauren’s partner Charles was supporting her throughout the labour, saying: ‘I was getting my hair pulled and every time she had a contraction she was grabbing my face and gouging my eyes out. But you just go through it, comfort her and reassure her she’s doing well.’
