Author: Alex RossPublished 16th Jan 2023

After witnessing their romance blossom on E4 show Celebs Go Dating, it had looked like former Love Island star Laura Anderson and popular actor Gary Lucy could have found 'the one' in each other.

Despite spending Christmas together and Laura being there for Gary following his horrific car accident on Boxing Day, it looks like the pair have now called time on their romance, with a source suggesting they 'want different things'.

Fans have been concerned that the pair's romance was over in recent weeks, and now Laura has deleted all trace of the former Hollyoaks actor from her socials, as well as telling fans she's going through a 'very difficult time'.

Sharing a snap alongside her dog, Laura told fans: 'I know I've been quiet on here and not myself this week or so.

'I'm going through a very difficult time, I actually don't think I've ever felt so stressed in my life.

'As we know Instagram isn't real life but over sharing negativity has never been something I like doing. Anyway my thought of the day for us all is - Never lose yourself or your voice.' (sic)

As well as deleting snaps alongside Gary, the pair have also now unfollowed each other, the tell-tale 2023 sign that things are over!

Despite the cryptic posts and speculation, neither Laura or Gary have publicly confirmed they've split.
