Lauren most recently finished performing on the Strictly Come Dancing Arena Tour and will next be heading out on the Professionals Tour this summer. She has just completed her fourth series on BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing, where she was partnered with footballer Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.

Lauren is from Birmingham and has been dancing since the age of two. She competed internationally in both Ballroom and Latin since the age of seven and early success led to winning three major international competitions and maintaining the title of British Closed Champion for three years. Lauren’s competitive career continued with other highlights, including winning both the prestigious United Kingdom and the British Closed Under 21 Ballroom and Latin titles.

She has performed all over the globe with the prestigious ‘Burn the Floor’ since 2013, touring Australia, Japan, USA, China, South Korea, South Africa and the UK, including a run at Sadler's Wells. She also partnered Kevin Clifton in his 2020 and 2022 UK Tours. Lauren regularly assists the show's creatives in concept and choreography for all major touring shows.

Lauren has performed across the UK alongside professional dancers Anton Du Beke and Giovanni Pernice.

She joined the professional dancer line-up on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, and in 2023 was given her first celebrity partner, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, with whom she placed 8th in the competition. In the show’s 20th anniversary series, Lauren stepped in to partner JB Gill, taking him all the way to the final.
