Laura Anderson gushes over footballer boyfriend as they mark huge milestone
Ex-Love Islander Laura Anderson posted a series of photos with her footballer boyfriend to mark their anniversary after taking on a new life as a self professed 'Wag' Influencer Laura Anderson, aged 36, took to Instagram to gush over her lover beau Clark Robertson, 31, to mark a very special occasion they're sharing together. The Scottish TV star first rose to fame in 2018 when she appeared on the hit series Love Island in search of her happily ever after. On the series, she was so close to winning the prize, coming second as part of a couple with Paul Knops. Despite their split soon after the show, Anderson soon found love again with Dane Bower and later on the Hollyoaks actor Gary Lucy. It was with Lucy that she had her daughter Bonnie, before their eventual split in 2023. After all of the heartbreak, it seems Anderson finally met her match, as she poses loved-up with her Dundee Defender boyfriend, celebrating one year together. In her romantic post, the former flight attendant described her partner as her "hot man", gushing over his love for her daughter, who is turning two in September. The post reads: "Celebrating our one-year anniversary. Our love story is like no other, most of which we do not share. Your modesty for a hot man is unmatched, as is your devotion as a father. "Thank you for being yourself, thank you for being a role model to Bonnie, and thank you for always closing the fridge door behind me." Her dedicated 1.5 million followers were quick to flood the comments, sharing the love with the happy couple. One fan commented: "Isn't funny how fate has worked out! We are all so happy for you." While another person shared: "Wow its your time now, Laura. You kissed enough frogs, and Prince Charming arrived, and he seems such a gentleman xx". It seems her new lifestyle with Roberson is suiting her nicely, as she previously opened up to the Scottish Sun about learning the ways of the football world. She said: 'I guess I'm a WAG now. I actually really like football. I didn't really like it before. To be honest, it just reminded me of my dad hogging the remote when we were young, and I never got to watch what I wanted to watch. "But now I like going to the games. I think he looks very sexy, actually, because he's quite bossy on the pitch, and he's not like that day-to-day. He's such a relaxed, chilled-out guy. So on the pitch, he's always pointing, and I'm like, 'What the hell? What's going on?" Meanwhile, her footballer boyfriend keeps his own Instagram profile private and lets Laura take the limelight when it comes to social media stardom. The reality star has shared the journey with fans along the way to this one-year anniversary, posting their numerous 'staycays', holidays and home life with her daughter Bonnie, and her followers can't get enough of it.

Louis Tomlinson and Zara McDermott grab some 'alone time' at first Glastonbury
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Louis Tomlinson and Zara McDermott are enjoying some cosy alone time amid the calm before the Glastonbury Festival storm. The sweet new couple have been spotted at their first Glasto together, where The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo, and Neil Young will headline over the weekend. Of course, Worthy Farm is a celebrity hotspot at this time of year, with One Direction superstar Louis, 33, no stranger to some Glasto action—who could forget when he took a television in so revellers could watch the England football game? This year, however, the pop star has a new companion by his side, having started dating Zara, 28, earlier in 2025 following her split from Sam Thompson, 32. Exclusive video footage obtained by Metro captures the lovebirds stealing a moment away from the crowds. Both were dressed in casual athletic attire, with Louis seemingly attempting to go incognito with a cap and pair of sunnies. Ex-Love Islander Zara styled her blonde locks in a sleek ponytail and appeared to be wearing little to no makeup while tucking into a burger. A source tells us she and Louis were 'enjoying a snack in the sunshine' away from the mob at the Interstage area. 'They didn't appear to be feeling too chatty but smiled between bites, enjoying some quiet alone time,' added the insider. Silver Tongues hitmaker Louis is said to have 'charmed' Zara several months ago. A source claimed previously that 'it's clear [Louis] thinks she's drop-dead gorgeous'. Zara dated podcaster and presenter Sam Thompson for five years, shocking fans when they called it quits over the festive period. While Zara has fully moved on, Sam was believed to be dating Love Island and reality star Sami Elishi for two months, having been papped snogging at a party. But it's said their romance has now 'fizzled out', with conflicting schedules preventing them from spending any real time together. MailOnline confirmed the split today, while Zara parties it up with Louis at Glasto. 'For Sam, it was his first relationship since his split from Zara, and the feeling is he would rather concentrate on work before getting into another long-term commitment,' a source told the publication. Neither Zara nor Louis has spoken publicly about their blossoming relationship, but it's clear fans are invested. Giving the world a glimpse into his feelings for his new girlfriend last month, Louis left his first comment on Zara's Instagram post about her upcoming BBC docuseries. 'Proud of you x', he wrote simply in a comment that has since garnered almost 30,000 likes. Louis's influencer sisters also expressed admiration for Zara in the comments, proving she's already been made welcome in the family. But for the Directioners who are also Sam fans, fear not, because there isn't believed to be any bad blood between Zara's men. According to insiders, the pair held a 'peace dinner' last week while training together for Soccer Aid, hoping to avoid any awkwardness. As per The Sun, Zara's ex and her new lover dined at Champneys in Tring, Herts, with other teammates present. A source told the publication: 'There is no beef between the pair, and they're both going to ensure their love lives don't distract from such a big charity spectacle. 'They are fully aware that their every move is being scrutinised, and they've broken bread with their teammates, so it'll be smooth sailing on the day.' Sam also spoke about the atmosphere between himself and Louis while chatting to Pete Wicks on their Staying Relevant podcast. Ahead of kick-off, Sam was caught off guard by an interviewer who wanted the gossip. But, he was determined to string an answer together, despite the panic of his team. 'I think I did alright, and I meant everything I said as well,' he began, stressing that Soccer Aid is not about him, nor is it about Louis—it's about UNICEF. 'Everyone is going to be there for the exact same reason,' Sam said. 'And if [Louis] has anything about him, which I've heard he does, he's going to sit there and say the exact same thing.' More Trending Pete applauded him for handling the potentially uncomfortable situation with grace, sarcastically asking whether he shed tears once the call ended. 'I came off, and I wasn't far off that [crying], and I didn't realise I was sweating so hard I had sweat patches under my arms,' Sam said. 'You know when you're sweating buckets? And I turned around to our PR and was like, 'Was that OK?'' Since striking up a romance, Louis has been spotted packing on the PDA on several occasions. They've also holidayed in Costa Rica, and she joined him in Los Angeles. Got a story?

Millions of women live life by their menstrual cycle – including when they exercise & what they wear, study shows
A NEW tool tells women the best days of the month to exercise, go on a date, get dressed up for a party, and perform well at work. The calculator has been designed to determine when they will be at their best at different points in their monthly cycle. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 A new study has found that women plan what they wear the most around their monthly cycle Credit: Getty The nifty asset allows women to input their usual length of cycle and date of last period, before plotting out exactly when they should do – or avoid – certain activities. It has been pulled together by natural period pain supplement monthlies, on the back of its research of 5,000 women in the UK. The findings show millions of women are governed by their menstrual cycle – and its pattern determines when they exercise, how they feel, and what they wear. It emerged 51 per cent feel controlled by their periods – to the extent 32 per cent say it dictates when they have sex, and 21 per cent what and when they eat. Socialising (23 per cent), sleep (20 per cent) and even when to commit to an important meeting (11 per cent) are among the things women plan around their time of the month. The study, by natural period pain supplement brand monthlies, found 54 per cent of those who experience period pain can pinpoint the exact days in the month it will occur. While 91 per cent experience ovulation pain mid-month – with discomfort when the ovaries release the egg felt around days 14 and 15 – with 63 per cent feeling this for more than two days. The average sufferer will also experience bloating for just over seven days of the month. And just seven per cent of lucky women claim to feel balanced and 'normal' for their entire monthly cycle. A spokeswoman for monthlies, which is designed to help with menstrual symptoms and cycle throughout the month, said: 'While this research gives us an 'average' picture of what the monthly cycle can look like, we know every single woman has their own unique set of experiences when it comes to having periods. Ex-Love Islander on what really happens when they get their period in tiny bikinis & the trick that DIDN'T work for her 'And while pain is more commonly felt the few days of bleeding, and at the mid-month point, this is not the case for everyone. 'Every woman needs to learn about their own period journey and work out what works best for them in terms of how to manage their period pain, as well as when to get the best out of themselves personally, professionally and socially.' Women generally do try to stay active for the majority of the month, including when they are on their period (44 per cent) and during ovulation (60 per cent). However, moods can fluctuate throughout the monthly cycle for two thirds of those polled, and six in 10 (59 per cent) often notice differences in their energy levels. Sleep, hunger, and productivity can also vary across the four week cycle. However, on the plus side, the research has highlighted that days 11 to 15 in the average woman's monthly cycle is when they feel the best, have the most energy and the most confidence. These days are also cited as those which are best to take a shopping trip, go out for the evening and feel nicest in clothing. With day 12 voted the best for having sex for the average person experiencing periods polled via OnePoll. The spokeswoman for added: 'Having a period isn't all bad, in fact at times it can be empowering, and depending on what our hormones are doing and when, we can often feel great. 'It's all about learning about your own body, what it responds to, how to look after it and realising that everyone is different.'

But as the couple's New Year's Eve kiss first suggested, as it went viral, the relationship is now well and truly back on. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Ex-Love Islander Molly-Mae Hague dramatically announced her split From Tommy Fury on Instagram last summer Credit: Rex 9 Molly has secretly laid down the law insisting he FaceTime her every HOUR when they are not together Credit: Instagram I can reveal, though, that influencer Molly has secretly laid down the law with her boxer beau — insisting he FaceTime her every HOUR when they are not together so that she knows exactly where he is and who he's with. The strict rule has become quite the talking point among Tommy's circle of mates. But if he wants to stay with Molly, he may have no choice but to fall into line. A source said: 'It sounds extreme, but Molly feels much more reassured when Tommy checks in. It all helps with trust, honesty and transparency between the two of them.

'Tommy has been very dedicated so far — if he's on a train, he will FaceTime the moment he gets off. 'It's the same with any flights that he takes or hotels he's staying in. 'Tommy dutifully phones Molly the minute that he arrives anywhere. 'And then she likes him to also show her where he is. 'This has been going on for months now, and Tommy's friends are impressed that he has agreed to it whole-heartedly.'

'But Molly's team, on the other hand, feel that this is what he needs to do if he wants to keep his family together. 'The question is, does Molly really trust Tommy? Some highly doubt it.' Speaking last year, Tommy told how his drinking had played a huge part in driving a wedge between him and Molly. He said at the time: 'The reason why me and Molly broke up was because I got addicted to alcohol and I couldn't be the partner that I wanted to be any more. 'It kills me to say it, but it's true, I couldn't. 'I loved a pint of beer, loved to drink, and it is what it is.' CATHERINE TYLDESLEY has Channel 5 high-ups all in a spin – as the future of their drama The Good Ship Murder has been thrown into chaos by her return to Coronation Street. Cath and fellow former Corrie star Shayne Ward play the lead roles in the series and bosses had expected it to continue after the current run but have now been blindsided. An insider tells me: 'Executives are holding frantic meetings to determine whether they can recast the leading role, or will be forced to axe the show when current filming concludes. 'Nobody saw this coming and she didn't tell them in advance – they can't believe it after all they have invested in her. Suffice to say, people are furious.' But Corrie urgently needs Catherine's character, Eva Price, back in the fold as stars are exiting the ITV soap in their droves. Maybe Channel 5 can find another of the Weatherfield lot to take on the role . . . Oi!
