Lauren Charlotte Harries – born James Charles Harries – is a British TV personality. Beginning her career as a young boy at the tender age of 10 discussing antiques on Terry Wogan’s chat show, Harries was labelled a ‘child prodigy’. She is now a woman after a full sex change operation.
Harries was born in Surrey in 1978, and from the age of five, he collected all kinds of objects from car boot sales and second-hand shops. His break came when a piece of porcelain he found was valued at several thousand pounds. The local paper carried the story and James was promoted by his father as a child prodigy in the field of antiques.
Harries made his television debut at ten years old in August 1988 on Wogan. His knowledge of antiques, combined with an odd appearance including bow ties, hair in thick golden curls, formal attire and a precocious manner of speaking, made Harries someone the viewing public were unlikely to forget.
On her former appearance, Lauren said: “I was like this freak in this little suit with a bowtie on, I do see that as a different person, but as an aspect of myself as well.”
James started cross-dressing in 1997 and soon changed his name to Lauren. She has said that a casual remark in a supermarket, that ‘he should be a woman’, helped her realise that that was what she wanted.
In 2001, James underwent a full sex change operation and officially became Lauren Charlotte Harries. Describing the life-changing moment, she said: “My life is just beginning. It’s like I’ve been reborn.”
Harries is a Buddhist and a vegetarian and can also read peoples auras.
OMG she sounds like Kermit the frog
I like Lauren she seems really nice and not afraid to be herself I hope she stays in 🙂
I am confused about lauren louie and sophie in the cult of celebrity though
😯 mad as a box of frogs 😯
I thought she was like 70 years old 😯
She is not 35 r u shittin me
Surely it should be “She is now a woman…”? Either way, I’m glad I picked this series to get back into BBUK. I’ll watch anything with Lauren in it.
when lauren was walking around in her nightie suspenders and high heels with her bum hanging out.The image will haunt mr
@Mike
I agree, she is rather fascinating to watch, us Brits do like our eccentrics. And she is different from the usual run of the mill celebs, & not afraid of saying what she thinks. :up:
Nurse, Nurse, she’s out of her bed again. 😯
I love Lauren everyone needs to stop being so ignorant, and give her a break.
She would make a true friend, she is lovely and kind.
WHO WANTS THE CAKE?
Shes my favourite 🙂
I think Lauren is a lovely and kind lady she needs to WIN :up:
Lauren Harries and her entire family are fraudsters. She was not a prodigy, she is not a doctor, she isn’t kind at all! She claimed at one time to be the second coming. If you think taking money from people for false services is fab then vote Lauren….. If you don’t maybe you should watch this:
Little Lady Fauntleroy
Lauren is sweet :heart:
@HeyHeyHey, nobody cares about some stupid documentary that’s 10 years old
Exactly! So stop posting shite cos it takes up too much space 😉
the whole family is a bunch of fame hungry freaks
I have to admit I dont think she’s as good an actor as people are making out as in being a fraudster?? I am really warming to her :heart: still think shes as mad as a hatter though lol 😀
@Oliver & Yogi; It’s not stupid or shite, it shows her and her family in a true light. Say what you want about the documentary being 9 years old, however her and her family still take money for counselling plus a variety of other bogus things which they are not qualified to do, to people who have any mental health issues this is not only emotionally harmful but financially too. Lauren’s parents are responsible for her grandiose delusions and I feel sorry for her for that, but the fact remains she is a z list fraudster who thinks she is the second coming. I was merely trying to point out she is not the kind person people are labelling her.
I agree, she is a total bitch. She nominated courtney after saying they were best mates. She went mental at Ron for mentioning her name in the nomination discussion and saying she could win …. even though when she was in the cult of celebrity they nominated him.
@Jodie Wood, 100% spot on!
Ryan on bbbots seems to think Lauren saying’Who wants the cake’ is the funniest thing ever. err why???????????????? Have I missed something. Lauren is a walking, talking train wreck. Uncomfortable viewing. Don’t dislike the girl but have to watch her from behind the sofa.
Mentally ill 😥 ……. and this is celebrity big brother! Talentless nobody.
