LAURA Anderson has insisted her daughter Bonnie was planned during her whirlwind relationship with Gary Lucy.

Love Island legend Laura, 34, and Hollyoaks actor Gary Lucy 41, welcomed their baby girl into the world last month.

The former couple met on Celebs Go Dating in August 2022, but endured a bitter break up months after announcing they were to be parents four months later.

But Laura has now revealed they secretly reunited before giving birth.

The TV personality told OK! Magazine, "Well, we did try before the birth, but it's just not really worked out so far.

"When we first got together and decided to have a baby – because Bonnie was planned – it was what I wanted. But it's quite common for parents not to be together for whatever reason.

"And I've found a community, connecting with a lot of women on Instagram who've reached out to me and said that seeing me manage on my own has made them feel that they can do it too."

Laura recently said that she and Gary are on good terms and are co-parenting to the best of their ability.

She said, “Nobody has the perfect set-up, even people who are in relationships. Life is difficult and I know now it’s OK not to have the fairy-tale.

“No one knows what the future holds, but it’s really important that Bonnie has a mother and a father who love her and who are getting along.
