Tommy Fury ‘slid into Lauren Goodger’s DMs’ before jetting off to Love Island

Tommy Fury tried to woo reality star Lauren Goodger before jetting off to Love Island.

The 20-year-old boxer sent her a string of messages on Instagram begging for a date. His pursuit began last December and continued until April.

Tommy, brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury , was still with ex Millie Roberts – who he dumped just before going on the ITV2 reality show.

Millie has revealed that Tommy going on Love Island went against “everything he claimed to stand for”.

She says: “He wouldn’t even like me watching the programme and would say the girls were disgusting because of their lip fillers and Botox. He hates all that.”

A source close to Lauren, who once dated fellow TOWIE star Mark Wright, reveals: “Tommy was sending her flirty messages asking to meet up. They spent a lot of time talking on FaceTime, and she started to fancy him.

“She asked if he had a girlfriend. He said he couldn’t be more single. He’d say he couldn’t wait to meet up for a drink, but it never happened.

“He was really complimentary to her and was always saying how sexy she was. Lauren went off him romantically and they never got round to organising a date.”

Single Lauren, 32 – who will be appearing on the new series of E4’s Celebs Go dating – is said to have only discovered Tommy had a girlfriend at the time when she saw him on Love Island.

The source adds: “She is hoping the claims his ex has made aren’t true. She wishes him all the best.”

Tommy is coupled up with Molly-Mae Hague, 20, on the show, with their relationship hotting up over recent days.

Last month it was revealed he dated Hollyoaks actress Chelsee Healey after messaging her on ­Instagram. He persuaded her to go on a date after she caught his eye on a night out in Manchester last month.

Chelsee, 30, messaged him back and they went out but nothing came of it.
