After chatting to Lauren alone, the panel then invited Connor to come and take a seat next to his other half, who he met on Twitter.
The aspiring actor commented: “She’s an endearing woman and it really drags me down when people are so judgemental. She hasn’t gone through so much change not to be treated as a woman.
“We’ve had a lot of negative comments, we live in our own bubble [though]. We live each day as it comes.”
Throughout the interview, viewers were quick to take to Twitter to voice their opinions about the whole thing.

A third insisted: “That relationship won't last the month…#mealticket #LooseWomen.”
However, others were quick to wish the pair every ounce of happiness, with one sharing: “I think Lauren and Connor are lovely people and a lovely couple. People should let them just be happy! #LooseWomen.”
Another stated: “#LooseWomen. Lauren looked amazing…so happy you have found love.”
