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.

My view,having watched a great deal of BB and CBB is that there have been some mentally unbalanced HMs in most. Even in this one it is obvious that this is so and,by that comment, I am not pinpointing Lauren.
Pills and mental people do not necessarily go well together. whether they are there own or others,
As for the pills being Rennies why were the other hms so concerned if they knew that they were not allowed to bring in any prescribed medication and that all that they are were Rennies ?
I feel that your comment displays an attitude that is somewhat complacent.
@David Dee
The other house mates were so concerned about the pills because they are over reacting drama queens & drunk :tongue: . There are cameras everywhere, nothing goes un noticed by BB. For you to suggest there could be an overdose or suicide is just a laughable, hysterical over reaction. The worst it’s gonna get is more bed wetting, vomiting & hangovers. Get real :down:
lauren has courtney on lock down but u know for sure courtneys being fake with her. she just needs to go cuz shes getting on my nerves now and freaking me out she still got a man voice and she wants everyone to look after her jheeze its not a care home its a house
Alcoholics/ex junkies/mental problems/bed wetters/delusional ex celebs who cant handle life without fame and money etc. does seem like its a care home should rename it the ‘big brother clinic.
Stumbles around the house bumping into things like an inmate off One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Really is becoming painful to watch. Tragic :conf: 🙁
O.K this is our big chance to do the right thing and get Lauren out of the house. She needs help and the CBB house is not a psychiatric hospital nor is it the fictitious orthopedic hospital Laurens mother says she needs the money for her “operation” please don’t be fooled by this consummate Con Woman!. I wonder if laurens mother was the “doctor” who diagnosed her with this condition. I would hate to see this family profit once more from exploiting their child and by voting for lauren that is what you are doing. If Lauren really had scoliosis she would not be walking about in heels and doing her aerobic dance and if the problem was so urgently needed attention as her mother says, surely a caring parent would have had this problem sorted out a longtime ago whatever the cost. I think as soon as lauren has gone the other housemates will be able to breathe and be themselves a bit more then we will have a good CBB. Lauren is hard work and eveyone is walking on eggshells. We all know there is a HUGE elephant in the room with a big letter “L” stamped on it but all of you seem to think this is great viewing. I’ll bet my last $ if Lauren wins CBB she will not see a cent of the money her parents will take it all and as for a career in the media, lets face it she unemployable.
Get Lauren out!!!!!!!
@Casey I agree! Another point NHS? Why does the awful exploitative mother want money for surgery? If it were bad enough for surgery, she would get it surely?
Thank God for Dr Pam on BBBOTS she seems be be the only one willing to say what the others are feeling in the CBB house, that Lauren is really hard work and its so uncomfortable to watch lauren. l think that Bruce, Mario and Dustin hit the nail right on the head with their eviction comments.Get Lauren out!!!
Lauren is the best housemate. She is a very nice person, so innocent and childlike. Lauren has to win.
The best thing to say about Lauren is that she doesn’t like Carol. The rest has been a painfully, tortuous viewing experience. Just the sight of her makes me queasy. Then she walks & talks & &….I just can’t. :doh:
Well l think we know who left the POOP on the floor!!! Now disgusting unflushed toilets. Constant complaints about her unhygienic ways and filth from other housemates. This is a 35 year old person we are talking about not a 2 year old. I’m glad Carol called her out on the toilet mess because if this happened in the main house she would NEVER have owned up to that but with only the three of them there lauren had nowhere to hide, bloody disgusting! Lauren needs to go it. Her grotty behaviour is terrible and l think this has been the worst CBB l have ever seen. How did she get into the house! Farts are one thing leaving POOP on the floor and not flushing your excrement away are another. For goodness sake vote her out can’t watch this anymore.
Laurens audition tape for big brother. “Lauren”…I’m a real animal lover.
I have five cats and one dog, and oh! lm a vegetarian!!!!……..
Task room with Carol and Mario……
“Carol”…What do you want for lunch Lauren? “Lauren”….I know, l’lll have the DUCK sushi!!!
Here we are back on planet Lauren. Has anyone told her DUCK is not on the vegetarian menu?
Lauren shouldn’t be in the house, not that one anyway! She needs professional help! Maybe she wasn’t in the best condition to be deciding to have such operations either, because I can’t see her any better off for them
Can’t believe she has been saved again. :down:
Lauren Harrie has to be what I can only imagine the result of Orville the duck and Big bird having a child together…
Harries*
@Jo
I could not agree more. I am concerned about Lauren’s mental well being, which is on a knives edge.
Lauren loves playing the ‘ditzy, eccentric’ poor me of the house BUT scratch the slightest surface and MAN the face changes, voice changes and anger erupts! Anyone who says one wrong word to her and she TOTALLY overreacts ….. pathetic :down:
@Madeline Spot on!!!! The way she interrogates the other HMs that put her up for eviction is disgraceful and she’s spiteful and can’t let it go. There is a very nasty peice of work under that facade. If the others came to her after nominations and did the same she would be screaming that they all pick on her and go to bed crying. I cannot believe that the British public seem to think her behaviour is funny let alone anywhere near the realm of normal. Shes far from normal but is savvy enough to play her game extremely well. Plays the transgender card way to much and Sympathy, Sympathy, Sympathy.
Sick and tired of hearing about “POOR” Lauren.
Maybe she over reacts because she is sensitive and fragile, I wouldn’t be surprised with the life that she has had, Lauren to win
Totally agree Casey, great minds think alike !!

This woman has learning difficulties she put her headphones on whilst holding a drink which then spilt all over her, she has serious mental health issues and like BB became the Gina house this has become the Lauren house.
Why are the other looking after her they are being paid to provide entertainment , 34 can’t care for herself, doesn’t pull the chain after using the loo,dresses like an old tart, and is totally delusional and manipulative.
Not amusing or sweet she is psychologically damaged and needs help.

@oliver When Lauren was a boy he made the family money by appearing on every T.V show this family could push him on to. From this they accumulated many businesses, property, a Rolls Royce and a pile of money but greed got the better of them. To gain more money, at the age of 14, he was rolled out in front of the cameras to try and Solicit money for legal fees for fraud charges against his father. What a joke!
Obviously this didn’t work and the bogus wonder child was not bringing home the bacon anymore and had become a freak show, so then came the sex change at 18. Was this yet another way for this family to exploit their money maker child? I don’t think the person we now know as Lauren was really making any responsible decisions for himself it was all in the hands of the mother, “Kate” the bogus councillor.
Since then we have seen the train wreck called Lauren on every show imaginable and now CBB.
Lauren is NOT a celebrity but a puppet for this family. They are not capable of making money in any honest way so now “Lauren” is rolled out again to make money at any cost. We read now claims from Lauren of a night of sex with Russell Brand, surely even a sex addict isn’t that hard up!!!!
This family will stop at nothing for money and lauren is a big part of this family and at 35 l think she knows how to play the media game very well. When the little smart arse child we all loved to hate was failing to bring in the bucks a new person was reinvented in his place to bring home the money, “Lauren”.
So we are now expected to all feel sorry for Lauren’s hard life. There are so many people that represent the transgender community far better than Lauren, they don’t bitch and moan about things or ask for your sympathy they just get on with it. Sorry the pity party for Lauren is well and truly OVER!!!!

Deary Me !! Oh “just live & let live”, it takes all sorts to make a world. Chill out !! 😀
