Lauryn Goodman's stalker has been arrested by police, bringing an end to nearly a year of alleged harassment. The 35-year-old former reality TV star had been receiving late-night phone calls from a withheld number, which she described as 'creepy' and 'scary'.
The mother of two, who has children aged five and two, previously contacted Hampshire Police about the calls. The situation escalated to the point where she hired bodyguards for her home to protect herself and her children.
A source told The Sun: 'This has been horrendous for Lauryn. She is relieved that the police have made an arrest but the fact this happened in the first place scares her.' The source added that the calls involved heavy breathing and whispering, and that Lauryn had no idea how the stalker obtained her private number.
Hampshire Police arrested a 34-year-old woman on suspicion of stalking. She has been bailed until May 25 as the investigation continues. The alleged stalking occurred between August and September last year.
Lauryn reportedly believes the harassment may be linked to the gossip website Tattle Life, though this has not been confirmed. A source told the Mirror: 'The stalker admitted to being a user on Tattle Life and this is just another example of why that site needs to be shut down.'
