Sam Faiers still wants to marry Mark Wright

Sam Faiers thinks she could still marry Mark Wright.

Though 'The Only Way Is Essex' star's former boyfriend recently got engaged to Lauren Goodger, Sam claims his new romance won't last and he will eventually return to her.

She said: "With me and Mark, well, we'll see, but I think that I could marry him one day.

"We are still very close and he respects me. There's no future for him and Lauren."

The 23-year-old beauty also admitted she "doesn't get on" with Lauren and would not go out of her way to make conversation with her, though she tries to be polite when they see one another.

She told the Daily Star newspaper: "Obviously we're civil to each other, but if we were in the same bar I wouldn't go and chat to her. We don't get on very well - she can be quite rude."

However, Sam's vow to wed Mark could be in vain, with the club promoter recently insisting that his relationship with Lauren is genuine in the face of rumours that their engagement was faked to boost ratings.

He said: "It's Lauren who has stolen my heart. I love her and I fancy her and wouldn't propose to someone just for a TV show - who would do that? It's something I've been thinking about for years."
