The reality star has remained a single mother to Junior, after she fell pregnant following a brief romance with Kylie, 30, whom is in a relationship with his fiancée Annie Kilner.
Sharing a photo of herself reading a book to her boy, Lauryn wrote: ‘Does anyone else have days where they actually feel that they don’t have anybody to lean on and they are completely having to hold the fought all on their own?
‘I have my family but they too have their own lives and children to look after. I love my son he is my world but I have been getting no sleep and I don’t even have the time to nap when he does. It’s been constant.

Honest: Lauryn appeared to reference footballer Kyle Walker’s absence as a father to Junior, admitting at times she feels ‘drained, tired and lost’
‘I’m emotionally drained, tired & just feel a bit lost at the moment. I feel like I’m under a lot of pressure to solely provide for my son.’
Lauren admitted the responsibility has taken a lot on her ‘mentally’ and there have been days where ‘I just break down and cry’, but tries to be strong ‘for my boy’.
She added: ‘The simplest of tasks have been made so difficult. I don’t even have a car to do a food shop.
‘So if I can’t borrow a car or get a home delivery slot then I’m basically screwed.
‘To even be able to take my son to appointments or day classes has been really challenging.

‘I’ve tried my best, but it’s been really tough mentally and physically.’
MailOnline has contacted Kyle’s representatives for comment.
Lauryn welcomed her son Junior with former flame, and England footballer, Kyle in April.
Back in September, Lauryn took a swipe at her ex on Instagram, after the footballer said he is a ‘role model’.
The social media star also accused Kyle of ‘stalking her’ on social media and acting like their son ‘doesn’t exist’.
Her post comes after ex Kyle is said to have been left devastated after his model fiancée Annie allegedly admitted to a fling with a toyboy during their explosive split.
The on-off couple rekindled their romance in June where he is said to have proposed to the mother of three of his children.
