Posting on Instagram, Laura revealed she received an upsetting message while out for lunch with boyfriend Clark Robertson.

She shared, in part: “Hey gang, Bonnie's just having her lunch I thought I'd come on and catch up with you. I actually got so upset yesterday.

“Technically had a ‘day off', Bonnie – my mum has her on a Wednesday now I've finished the radio.

“So I had some work to do, Clark came through and we ended up going for lunch, which was amazing.

“And I just did a bit of a appreciation post, ‘Oh it's so nice to go for lunch and kind of not have her and be able to relax and not rush'.

“I was feeling really positive, feeling really good – you know, quality time with Clark, you know we do long distance it's not that easy.

“And then, somebody sent me a message saying, ‘When is Bonnie not with your mum hun?”

Laura then proceeded to reveal how the message made her “so upset.”

She added: “I had to hold back tears in my favourite restaurant and I think Clark was quite shocked at how I reacted.

“I don't wanna share this for sympathy or a reaction, I've thought about it and I just think, you know, on here I just say whatever is going on in my life.

“And I shocked myself with my reaction, usually I'm just so unfazed now by any kind of negativity on comments or DMs, like weird DMs that I get.

“But this one really cut me deep. And I was annoyed at myself that I let it affect me that much.

“I think that was what I was more frustrated about, that I let it ruin my day.”

Laura Anderson and Gary Lucy's relationship timeline

  • Laura and Gary met when they both appeared on Celebs Go Dating back in 2022
  • They announced Laura's pregnancy in February 2023
  • Just one day later, they revealed that they had split
  • Later in 2023, they appeared to have reconciled
  • Laura gave birth to daughter Bonnie in September 2023
  • They announced shortly afterwards that they were no longer together
  • In June, Lucy was asked if Gary had seen Bonnie, to which she responded: “No he hasn’t since 2nd January if you would like to direct those questions to him as I have no control over the actions of others”.
  • In August this year, Gary shared a video of himself with Bonnie
  • With Laura hitting out: “Instead of posting videos of the one time you saw your daughter this year, can you please reply to my text from 2weeks ago please, that would be great”.
  • Laura marked Bonnie's birthday in September as she referenced her “beautiful daughter”
  • When someone asked where her relationship with Gary stands, Laura replied: “No matter what Gary has done and not done I will always respect him as Bonnie's father and I hope one day he is capable of being the father she deserves.”

Ultimately, she concluded: “I love being around Bonnie but it is amazing having time to yourself. And it's just a struggle mentally, trying to figure out that balance.

“I'm not that good at making decisions sometimes and it's a constant decision.

Even having a boyfriend now, Clark, we want to have time together.

“But then I want to be with Bonnie, but then I need to choose work. It's like, how do you figure out your time?”
