She has joined alongside the likes of pop star Jamelia, Love Islander Chris Taylor, Corrie star Helen Flanagan and Gogglebox legend Stephen Lustig-Webb who are all looking for love again on the E4 show.

The new series kicked off last night but Lauryn, 33, has yet to be seen on screen.

She is said to be worth around £2million, and will top up her earnings thanks to the exposure from the show.

But Lauryn, who has not been on reality TV before but has 234,000 followers on social media, was said to be paid just £15k for her appearance.

LAURYN vs KYLE

The England footballer’s ex-mistress was accused of using him as an “open-ended cheque book” after giving birth to his second love child.

Posting about Judge Edward Hess’ ‘scathing’ court ruling against her, Lauryn poked fun at the judges’ comments about her ‘childcare’ demands.

Asked by a fan where her bookcase was from, Lauryn replied: “For our ‘show home’ we ‘demanded a ‘lavish’ bookcase from Dunelm.

“Both kids’ rooms have them. Quite handy and I feel like they aren’t offensive.

“I think they were priced around £35.

In a highly rare move for the often secretive family courts, Judge Edward Hess lifted reporting restrictions to lift the lid on a scandal.

It’s after Lauryn told Walker’s wife Annie Kilner on Boxing Day last year that he’d fathered a second love child with her.

The model and influencer is understood to have bluntly written: “I don’t have two baby daddies — I have one.”

Last month, Lauryn battled her ex in court – but in a damning 30-page document was branded an “unreliable” witness who tailored her evidence to suit her case rather than the truth.

The judge said she used the fact he was desperate to keep the birth of their one-year-old daughter Kinara Storm a secret and used it as “leverage”.

And he waved away the vast bulk of Lauryn’s financial demands.

Dismissing her £33,000 request for air conditioning he said: “As the father said, on the fairly small number of days in England when it is very hot, any discomfort can usually be dealt with by closing blinds/curtains and deploying a modestly-priced electric fan.

“That is what happens in his home, he said, and although he conceded that it may be generally a little colder in Cheshire than in Sussex, he thought (and I agree with him) that air conditioning is rarely needed in an English home.”

Reacting to Lauryn’s list of demands, her estranged sister Chloe told the Sun: “To me the demands showed she was angry and hurt and was going for the jugular.

“She’s been seen as the bad person and that’s justified with some of her actions so she probably thinks she has nothing to lose.

“And people are looking at this from the view of an ordinary household income and saying, ‘That’s a disgraceful amount of money.’”

READY FOR LOVE

Viewers will see Lauryn getting advice from Celebs Go Dating expert Anna Williamson when she appears on screens later in the series.

Anna told The Sun Lauryn was “in floods of tears within minutes” of walking into the agency.

She also revealed the Channel 4 coaches made it clear that the show would not be used to disparage Kyle and his family.

Anna told us: “We’ve had every conversation under the sun about her situation, ‘sticky’ is a great description.

“It’s been quite controversial signing Lauryn up to the show.

“I think it’s fair to say that there’s been very mixed opinions from fans of the show.

“Everybody seems to have an opinion but the beauty of what I do for a job is that my opinion is not needed.

“She has joined the agency for her own reasons because she wants help and you will discover by watching the series what help she does need and you know we don’t pack any punches.”
