Lauren Pope is an English television personality, model, DJ, and entrepreneur who has a net worth of $4 million. Lauren Pope is best known for appearing on the British reality series "The Only Way Is Essex," commonly known as "TOWIE." She joined the program during its first season in 2010 and appeared in more than 200 episodes before leaving permanently in 2019.

Before becoming a reality television personality, Pope worked as a glamour model and professional DJ. She performed in clubs throughout Britain and internationally and appeared in magazines including FHM, Loaded, Nuts, Zoo, and Mixmag.

Pope's most important business venture has been Hair Rehab London, a hair-extension and beauty company she founded in 2007. She introduced the business on the ITV entrepreneurial competition "Tycoon," where she worked with businessman Peter Jones. Although she did not win the series, Pope continued developing the company into a long-running online and wholesale brand.

She has also designed fashion collections, promoted beauty products, developed a community for mothers, and launched the leisurewear company Sosala. Pope stepped away from "TOWIE" to concentrate on her businesses and family.

Lauren Grace Pope was born on September 29, 1982, in Torquay, Devon, England. She grew up in Torquay with her sisters and attended school in the area.

Pope moved to London when she was approximately 18 years old to pursue opportunities in modeling and entertainment. She began receiving work as a glamour and commercial model and became a regular presence in British men's magazines.

Her modeling career included appearances in FHM, Nuts, Zoo, Loaded, and other publications. Pope also appeared on Page 3 and developed the celebrity profile that later helped her enter television and launch consumer products.

Pope began working professionally as a DJ during the 2000s. Her combination of modeling fame and dance-music knowledge helped her secure bookings at clubs, festivals, corporate events, and celebrity parties.

She performed throughout Britain and traveled internationally for DJ engagements. Her sets generally focused on house and dance music, and she also became involved in music production.

Pope appeared in the video for Calvin Harris' single "Ready for the Weekend." She was marketed for a time as one of Britain's most prominent celebrity DJs, although she eventually concentrated more heavily on television and business.

Pope founded Hair Rehab London in 2007 after recognizing an opportunity to sell convenient clip-in hair extensions to consumers who wanted salon-style results at home.

She introduced the company on "Tycoon," an ITV reality program in which "Dragons' Den" investor Peter Jones mentored aspiring entrepreneurs. Pope did not win the public vote, but Jones continued working with her after the show and became involved in the development of Hair Rehab London.

The company expanded from clip-in extensions into ponytails, hairpieces, professional extensions, styling tools, and other products. Pope used her own image and television exposure to market the brand while also working directly on product development.

Hair Rehab London secured online customers, salon accounts, wholesale relationships, and collaborations with other reality personalities. The company has remained active for nearly two decades, although its filed balance sheet is much more modest than the multimillion-dollar valuations sometimes assigned to Pope online.

Pope joined "The Only Way Is Essex" when the reality series premiered in 2010. The program followed the personal relationships, businesses, parties, and disputes of a group of people living in Essex.

Her storylines involved friendships, romantic relationships, business projects, and conflicts with other cast members. Pope became one of the show's longest-serving personalities and appeared alongside figures including Mark Wright, Sam Faiers, Gemma Collins, Joey Essex, and James Argent.

Pope initially left the series in 2015 to concentrate on Hair Rehab London and other ventures. She returned in 2017 and remained part of the cast for another two years.

She announced her final departure in 2019, explaining that she wanted to focus on the next phase of her personal life and businesses. Pope later revealed that "TOWIE" itself had initially paid relatively modest day rates, but the exposure significantly increased the value of her endorsements and helped Hair Rehab London reach a larger audience.

Pope has designed clothing collections and collaborated with the online retailer In the Style. Her fashion work drew on the audience she developed through reality television and social media.

She later created The Mum Space, an online platform intended to provide information and a sense of community for mothers. Its content has addressed pregnancy, childbirth, parenting, relationships, and the pressures women experience after having children.

Pope also launched Sosala, an affordable leisurewear and everyday-clothing brand. The company sells leggings, sweatshirts, jackets, and other clothing designed for school runs, exercise, errands, and casual use.

Her companies have increasingly become family operations, with several relatives holding positions in entities connected to Hair Rehab London.

Pope has had several relationships that were documented on "TOWIE." She later began a relationship with businessman Tony Keterman.

Pope and Keterman welcomed their first daughter, Raine Anais, in July 2020. Their second daughter, Leni Star, was born in June 2022.

The couple subsequently separated, and Pope has described herself as a single mother. She moved back to Devon and has continued overseeing her companies while raising her daughters.
