Love Island star Laura Anderson blasts ex Gary Lucy for ‘not supporting’ their child and says she is ‘tired of hiding the truth’ in scathing online post: ‘I did everything to make my family work ‘

Laura Anderson has admitted she ‘did everything to make her family work’ as she opened up about her split from ex-boyfriend Gary Lucy.

The Love Island star, 34, accused Gary of not ‘supporting or watching’ their daughter Bonnie, seven months, in a scathing Instagram post.

Laura shared a video of herself holding up her daughter Bonnie as she tried to stand in an adorable post which she shared on Instagram.

The thinly veiled caption aimed at Gary read: ‘How anyone could go without seeing or supporting their child is beyond me. I love you Bonnie Rose.’

Laura clarified her remarks in the comments of the post, where a fan questioned her on/off romance with Gary after they posted looking loved up just a few months ago.

She wrote: ‘I did everything I could to make my family function, fool me. There are no cryptic posts, I’m tired of hiding the truth. Is what it is.’

Laura suggested that Gary not have contact with their daughter Bonnie.

She said: ‘Why do guys get away with whatever they want, it’s mental. Imagine if I didn’t pay for Bonnie’s food, diapers, clothes etc etc etc.’

Gary has four other children India, 18, Elvis, 12, Sadie, seven, and Theodore, four – from his previous marriage to Natasha Gray.

Shortly after Laura posted the video of Bonnie, Gary shared new photos with Sadie and Theodore while they were out for a walk together.

Laura recently admitted that she did not expect to become a single mother, but is determined to make it work for her daughter.

Laura and Gary met while filming Celebs Go Dating in July 2022 and have been dating on and off ever since.

The TV personality revealed that she is ‘tired’ and that her ‘social life has taken a backseat’ now she is a single parent, but she ‘has to make it work’ for her little girl.

Talking to Mirror, she said: ‘I think it was hard to get my head around at first, it wasn’t what I expected. But those were the cards I got in the end. Of course I want to make it work for my child, even more so. I feel like I’m a really good mum, to be honest.’

Discussing her busy work schedule, Laura continued: ‘She’s amazing, your social life takes a bit of a back seat but most people, your good friends understand that. Prioritize what you have to do, that’s just me.

‘I have to make it work. I’m tired, but of course I want to be tired. I’m raising a human soul, that’s what I signed up for.

Think how many moms out there struggle with that work/life balance, it’s not just me. It’s so relatable and that’s the best thing about Love Island, having a social media, I’ve really understood it more since having a baby. It’s so nice to resonate and it’s really a positive place’.

It comes after Laura confirmed she is ‘happily single’ after fans were left guessing about the state of her relationship with Gary.

The pair were believed to be back together after they shared a post of them kissing on New Year’s Eve.

Gary sparked rumors that they had split after he was spotted cozying up to a mystery woman at a party earlier this year.

The Hollyoaks actor enjoyed the VIP launch of Gilgamesh at St Martin’s Lane London.

Making the most of the party atmosphere in the restaurant, Gary was seen getting close to a mysterious beauty.

‘Gary looked very cozy with a girl at the table and whispered in her ear. He was clearly here for a fun night out and didn’t care who was watching, a source told MailOnline.

Meanwhile, Laura was busy posting videos and photos from her day with their little girl.

The on-off couple has had a tumultuous relationshipafter meeting on E4 reality show Celebs Go Dating in 2022.

The couple announced they were expecting a baby in February 2023, but split soon after.

Since Bonnie’s birth in September, speculation over the couple’s relationship status has been mounting – with the pair hinting that they were secretly back in several snaps together.
