Ooh, what do we have here? TOWIE’s Lauren Pope cosying up to rapper Wretch 32 at Joey Essex’s birthday bash, that’s what.
We know what you’re thinking; hasn’t Joey Essex had enough birthday parties by now? Well, apparently not. But the real gossip of the night were pictures of a stunning Lauren P leaving Funky Budha with rapper Wretch 32 (real name Jermaine Scott), and on-lookers tell heatworld that the pair were “cosying up to each other all night.”
Tottenham-born Wretch, has two children – Kyrayn, five, and Skye-Laurell, one – from a previous relationship, and heatworld can exclusively reveal that Wretch is currently single. Get in there Popey!
Interestingly, we’ve uncovered that it’s not the first time Wretch and Popey have been flirty with each other either.
On 29th April, Lauren teased Wretch by writing “ur Towies biggest fan” to which he replied “I am now x.” The exchange came after Lauren went to Wretch’s gig at the O2 in London, and after tweeting about the night, Wretch re-tweeted her with a cheeky: “Oi oi”
It was reported in June that Wretch, 27, had enjoyed a date with Cheryl Cole, at the posh London restaurant La Caprice, with Cheryl admitting on Radio 1: “I was out for dinner with him.” Chezza also wrote on Twitter: “FYI Wretch 32 is one of the nicest people I have met. #Cute.”
But a spokesperson for Cheryl told us at the time that the pair’s relationship was purely platonic and professional. Which would make sense considering his flirty tweets to Lauren P.
