Pregnant Laura Anderson’s split from Gary Lucy: ‘She’d rather be alone than unhappy’
Posted February 25, 2023 by: Admin
Love Island 2018 alumna Laura Anderson recently shared the delightful news that she is expecting her first child with Gary Lucy, through a captivating Instagram montage that encapsulated her pregnancy journey thus far. However, Laura’s joyous announcement was followed by reports indicating that she had parted ways with the 41-year-old actor, who stated, “I love Laura but we are no longer together. My main drive, as always, is to work together to co-parent our child.”
The couple first met during filming for Celebs Go Dating last July, and rumours are circulating that Laura terminated their brief relationship after discovering that she was pregnant. The former reality star has reportedly made up her mind to raise her child as a single parent, and it seems that she is determined to do so with conviction.
A source close to Laura has revealed to Closer, “It’s a nerve-wracking time for Laura, but ultimately, she would rather be alone than be with someone who doesn’t make her feel completely happy. Her decision wasn’t an easy one, but she doesn’t want to expose her baby to conflict. Although some couples choose to stay together for the sake of their children, Laura can’t go down that route. In fact, she feels empowered by her choice.”
Laura is inspired to be the best mother possible and is aware that she can accomplish this alone. Although she has the support of her family and friends, Gary has also promised to be a supportive dad. He is already a remarkable father to his other children, and although he had hoped for things to work out between them, he also acknowledges that he has to respect Laura’s decision. She is thrilled to embark on this new chapter of her life, on her own terms and as a strong, independent woman.
