Big Brother star Lauren Harries has made shock claims that she was drugged while filming a string of bazarre viral videos that sparked concern earlier this year.
The reality TV personality, 41, has suggested she was drugged as "she didn't know what she was having in her drinks" when reflecting on the headline hitting clips in an interview on Cocktails and Confessions podcast.
"Perhaps I wasn't in the right place at that time, because people were influencing me and I didn't feel myself". But when asked if she felt that her friends at the time had encouraged her to make Instagram videos for publicity, Harries told the host Anthony Gilét, “absolutely”.
Responding to whether there were alarm bells going off at the time, Harries told:“I don’t know what I was having in my drinks when I was having them, because I wasn’t opening them.”
"Looking back my eyes were a little off-camera, and I didn’t know. So if someone is doing that to you, and you don't realise, it makes you think."
In one of the odd clips, the former child star filmed herself sitting on a weed-strewn patio wearing a ball gownas she purred: "Hello to all my Instagram and Twitter followers..."
She then pulled up her dress and sad: "Not getting this candy darling," before slapping her own bum.
In an apparently unplanned and unrelated moment, a child screams in the background.
Lauren had captioned the clip: "This candy is hard to get, summer is here and this fanny is going on tour!
"Welshmarilyn fannyonfleek fannyontour."
Another clip posted showed her begging Love Island bosses to let her into the villa this year.
She even slipped into a swimming costume for an audition tape.
Standing in her dishevelled garden, Lauren paraded around in a revealing blue and white one-piece with a plunging neckline for the 10-second video.
Lauren, who dubs herself 'Welsh Marilyn' in tribute to Marilyn Monroe, looked into the camera as she said: "Hello, my angels.
"Now I have this drop dead gorgeous body, bring on Love Island."
Birds can be heard tweeting in the background as Lauren blows the camera a kiss then playfully slaps her bottom.
She captioned the video: "I’ve got a text !!!! See you in the Villa boys...."
Lauren added a string of hashtags to her post, including "#LoveIslandLaura", "#welshmarilyn" and "#DoMoreThanBitsSociety", referencing the group set up by the lads living in the villa last year to track their progress with the girls.
In another she dressed up like a Playboy bunny and filmed herself twerking and smacking her own bum in the risqué video.
Making sure she chose the sauciest song possible, Lauren was dancing along to Nicki Minaj's X-rated track Good Form.
The tune features the lyrics "I tell him eat the cookie 'cause it's good for him, and when he eat the cookie he got good form."
She also suffered an epic technology fail when she live-streamed herself having sex with her partner .
It was only after 12 minutes of Lauren performing sex acts she realised she was live on Instagram.
