Gary Lucy breaks silence over Laura Anderson baby news following split
The pair are expecting a baby together
They may have now ended their relationship, but it seems there's still a lot of love between Love Island star Laura Anderson, and actor Gary Lucy, who announced earlier this week that they are expecting a baby together.
Laura left fans in shock on Wednesday 15th February, taking to social media to reveal she's pregnant, with Gary later speaking to a newspaper to confirm the pair have actually now split.
Now, just days later, the Hollyoaks actor has broken his online silence, leaving a gushing comment on Laura's post.
He wrote: 'There she is ❤️ so very proud of you Mummy Bear 🐻 cooking Baby Bear 🐻 perfectly ❤️'. (sic)
Laura, who appeared on the fourth series of Love Island in 2018, first announced she was pregnant earlier this week, sharing an Instagram Reel which featured footage of her attending scans, showing off her baby bump, and enjoying the Christmas break with 41-year-old Gary.
Whilst Laura and Gary met whilst filming the 2022 series of Celebs Go Dating, rumours were rife that they'd split in January, after they both deleted all trace of each other from social media.
However, despite not officially being back together, they have now re-activated the loved-up snaps from last year.
The pair's baby, who is due in the Summer, will be Gary's fifth child in total, with the former Footballers' Wives actor already being a proud dad to India, Elvis, Sadie and Theodore, whom he shares with his ex-wife Natasha Gray.
