No holding back: Lauren Goodger has hit out at her critics and claimed she is branded as an attention seeker for posting nude selfies – despite Kim Kardashian being ‘praised as a feminist’ for similarly racy snaps
The TV personality told the publication: ‘Kim posts a topless selfie and she’s a feminist.
‘I post a bikini picture and get called an attention seeker. It’s double standards. There is no need for it.
‘And calling me a bad role model? I just laugh. I’m Kate Middleton’s favourite TOWIE star, so I must be doing something right.’
She added: ‘I’m like a rock star, so I’ve got haters. These people aren’t happy. I look at them and think, “You must be so deeply unhappy in your life to be making so much of an effort to comment on mine”.
Secret admirers? The former TOWIE star, 33, also claimed that Kate Middleton had previously told Lauren that she was her favourite cast member on the ITVBe reality showLauren Goodger flaunts cleavage in bra as she posts throwback video
‘Deep down, I know it’s jealousy. I don’t care what I say or do, I am who I am and that’s it.’

It comes after Lauren, who famously dated co-star Mark Wright, also 33, came under fire last week after she was accused of enhancing her social media images with photo editing tools.
Last week she hit back at ‘vile, nasty, evil’ trolls in a lengthy rant.

‘It’s any excuse to try and bring me down! But it’s so wrong. How dare you. But one thing about me is I will never let you win! You will never bully me to try and make your ugly selves feel better…’
