Laura Anderson in tears in new video as toddler Bonnie starts new chapter
Laura Anderson has shared an update with fans about her one-year-old daughter Bonnie
Laura Anderson has uploaded a tearful update to Instagram after announcing to fans that Bonnie has started a new chapter of her life. The Love Island star was left visibly emotional as she took to her Instagram Stories to reveal that her one-year-old daughter, who she shares with ex Gary Lucy, started her first day at nursery today.
The Scots influencer, 36, said in her upload: "I just dropped Bonnie at nursery for the first time. Her first official day at nursery." Laura's eyes looked red from crying as she said: "This is embarrassing, I've got a filter on my face - I actually feel sick.
"She [Bonnie] cried, wouldn't let me go. I don't know why I'm doing a story really. But I'm just sitting here like I need to leave and go and do loads of things. God love her, she'll be fine.
"I did not think I would be so emotional about her first day but it's true what they say, everyone's just the same and we all .."
Laura stopped mid sentence to show a gift she was given from the nursery as she read out the poem on it: "It says enjoy a little gift from us to you, your child is very special.
"They join our nursery school to begin an exciting journey and to learn things that are cool.
"But we know it will be tearful as you let your little one go. Please trust us to look after them, we'll help them play and grow.
"So dry your tears and make a drink. Enjoy a little treat because in just a few hours you'll be rushed back off your feet.
"Love from and then the name of the nursery."
Laura's relatable mum post was followed by an adorable snap of little Bonnie stood at the front door in a pink top and leggings with a floral backpack, all ready to embark on her first day at nursery.
The Scots star then shared a moving quote from a momslovehacks Instagram account about an 'important message' from a nursery teacher.

Bonnie is due to turn two in September and Laura has regularly spoken about the struggles of single parenting after she split from her ex, HollyOaks actor Gary Lucy, before their daughter was even born.
Laura has taken several public swipes at the actor, who has four other children with his ex-wife, even labelling him as a "deadbeat dad" after claiming he barely sees Bonnie.
Her most recent dig came just weeks ago on Father's Day when Laura uploaded a short clip of her giving the camera a sarcastic thumbs up, as she wrote: "Cheers to the single mums who feel sh*t for their kids on Father's Day."

Russell Grant's horoscopes as Capricorn to set some time aside to help a new colleague
Today's horoscope for Tuesday July 1 sees one star sign shows some patience, while another deals with emotional distance. Today's daily horoscopes for each star sign can be found below. These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant who has been reading star signs for more than 50 years. Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20) You've been so excited about a project that is about to begin that you have failed to recognise there are problems in your plans. It's not easy to accept there are flaws and while a positive mindset will take you a long way, this will not overcome poor reasoning. Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21) Put work before socialising. Focus on business, not pleasure. This also means steer clear of fun activities tonight. Use your creativity to tackle those jobs you have put aside recently. Completing these will lead to success. At home, don't let emotions get the better of you. Gemini (May 22 - June 21) Great things will often come for those who are willing to wait and show patience. Patience now is a valuable quality and this should be your guiding principle today. Keep in mind that when you start something new, the outcome is unlikely to be immediate. Cancer (June 22 - July 23) Exercise caution in financial and business transactions. Refuse to sign contracts until you have thoroughly reviewed documents; multiple times even if you feel this is necessary. If you are sincere in all transactions, you should have a reasonably successful day. Leo (July 24 - Aug 23) You're experiencing a wonderful sense of happiness and satisfaction. Your friendliness makes you very approachable. Friends and colleagues make it obvious they are enjoying your company. Don't hesitate to share your thoughts and suggestions with them. Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23) Agree to talk with someone who has recently hurt you. It is possible to get this relationship back to the way it used to be. Sharing experiences with someone you love will lead to greater happiness and a more fulfilling lifestyle. Holding on to anger will become increasingly difficult as time goes by. Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23) There seems to be an emotional distance between you and a partner. Normally you understand each other well, but not today. Although you feel a sense of guilt, there is also a relief in having some space from each other. Keep emotions private and avoid revealing that anything is amiss to others. Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22) You aren't short of things to do. There are lots that can keep you happily occupied as you wait for the results of recent endeavours. Accept there is nothing else that you can do other than get on with other things until you receive the news you are waiting for. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21) As you listen to everyone else's opinions you might lose touch with your own. Pause and take a little time to pay attention to your thoughts. This will provide you with valuable insights that will help you speed up progress towards your personal goals. Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20) It may be necessary for you to set some time aside to help a new colleague or neighbour. Many people look to you as being the one to guide those who are just starting at your company. Your practical assistance and patience is appreciated. Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19) People in power are starting to recognise that you have the ability to achieve nearly anything you focus on. Make the most of any opportunity they put your way. Encourage a partner to reach an agreement with you on joint plans for the future. Stay optimistic. Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20) Important details are being overlooked and that's because you have lost interest in your work. This may be temporary or it could be you are ready for a change. One way to find out is to take a step back and consider what you truly want.
