Lauren Goodger claims she was kicked out of a restaurant on Wednesday (05.07.17) to make way for her ex-boyfriend Mark Wright.

The 30-year-old reality TV star was out at the Essex restaurant Sheesh when she was apparently informed by two bouncers that she should leave the establishment because Mark, who's now married to actress Michelle Keegan, was set to arrive.

She wrote on Twitter: "Wow literally can't not explain what just happened to me ... BIG MISTAKE (sic)"

At that stage, a social media user wished Lauren well and she replied: "I will be cos I'm not letting this one go this time! Wrongen! (sic)"

The reality star subsequently voiced her disgust, saying the whole situation was completely unnecessary.

She ranted: "Y AM I BEIN FORCED 2LEAVE SHEESH BY 2 BOUNCERS IN A THREATENIN WAY TELIN ME MARK WRIGHT IS COMIN AND BEST I LEAVE..

"R THEY 4 REAL LIKE I GIVE A S**T AND IM GNA DO SOMETHIN 2 SUM1 WHOS IRRELEVANT.. ITS BEEN 5 YRS YET IM BEIN MADE 2LEAVE COZ MARK IS COMING.

"SO PATHETIC (sic)"

Mark arrived at the popular restaurant and later dined with pop star Olly Murs.

But it's not clear whether Mark asked for Lauren to leave before he arrived or whether the restaurant management asked her to leave as a precautionary measure.

Lauren is currently dating Joey Morrison, who is serving an 18-year jail sentence for offences including kidnap, blackmail and burglary.

But she is thankful his stint behind bars means they are having to take their relationship "slowly and soberly".

A source recently said: "Lauren is really in love and her life is completely centred around Joey.

"She says she's never been in a relationship like this before and she loves getting to know Joey the old-fashioned way - slowly and soberly."
