She's already confessed to Wes that she's looking for a husband, but some Love Island viewers were left mistaken earlier this week when they thought Islander Laura Anderson was already a mum.

Laura, who is currently coupled up with 20-year-old Wes, posted a number of photos to her Instagram page with a child, with many fans thinking it was in fact hers. Alongside one photo, which was posted in December 2017, Laura wrote, '28/12/11 🙏🏽 Ava I love you! Happy 6th birthday beautiful princess. You make me so happy and I'm so proud of the kind, funny and talented little girl you've become. I'll see you when you get back for more presents and hugs yayyyy 🍭🎂🎉🎁🎈🎀 #whenyourbffis6 👍🏽😬'. sic

The air-hostess also posted this cute photo back in July last year...

After seeing the photos, many Love Island fans took to both Twitter and Instagram to comment. One user wrote, 'As if she has a kid', with another adding, 'She has a kid ?! x'.

However, despite the confusion, the little girl in the photos is actually Laura's niece, not her daughter, with a Love Island spokesperson confirming the news.

That's that cleared up!

Meanwhile, Laura has been victim to some harsh online abuse about her age since the new series of Love Island kicked off earlier this month.

Despite claiming she is 29-years-old, many viewers accused Laura of 'lying', admitting they think she looks a lot older. After the comments emerged online, Laura's birth certificate has now been obtained by a number of publications, proving she was born in 1989, making her 29.

In other Love Island news, the Islanders were dropped with a MASSIVE twist during last night's show when they each had to vote for which two couples they believed to be the least compatible.

After voting in their couples, it was revealed at the end of the show that either Alex and Samira, or Hayley and Charlie will be dumped from the villa.

Who will it be?! 🤔

Love Island continues on ITV2 at 9pm tonight.
