Lauren Goodger has been seen hanging out with Dreamboys star Lotan Carter, who helped her out when her car tyre needed a change.
The former Towie star, 36, was seen planting a kiss on Lotan’s cheek as the pair posed for a photo together by her car with his daughter Willow.
The personal trainer, 33, who is Louie Spence’s nephew, was also seen getting stuck in to help Lauren change a tyre on her black Range Rover car, removing his hoody and donning a vest top as he fixed her wheel.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Lauren and Lotan are just friends and share the same management. He offered to help to change her tyre for her but they hadn’t met before that.
‘He has a girlfriend of two years and they have a child together, so they are nothing more than friends.’
Lauren’s 14-month-old daughter Larose was with her on the outing, for which Lauren donned casual workout gear consisting of brown leggings and a black zip-up top.

‘During this traumatic time I’ve lost but I’ve also gained some values in this awful heartbroken time … some new friends and become closer to my current ones & some family.
‘It really has shown me who is meant to be in my life and I love each and every one one of you thank you.
