She wrote: 'I did everything I could to make my family work, fool me. There's no cryptic posts anyone I'm fed up of hiding the truth. Is what it is.'

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

She said: 'Why do guys get away with whatever they want it's mental. Imagine I didn't pay for Bonnie's food, nappies, 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.

Soon after Laura posted the video of Bonnie, Gary shared new pictures with Sadie and Theodore while out on a walk together.

Laura recently admitted that she didn't expect to be a single mum 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 together on and off since then.

The TV personality revealed 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.

Speaking to the Mirror, she said:'I think it was hard to get my head around initially, it wasn't what I expected. But that's the cards I was dealt in the end. Of course, I'm going to make it work for my child, even more so. I feel like I'm a really good mum, to be honest.'

In another post, she added: 'Why do guys get away with whatever they want it's mental. Imagine I didn't pay for Bonnie's food, nappies, clothes etc etc etc'

Discussing her busy work schedule, Laura continued: 'She's great, your social life does a take a little bit of a backseat but most people, your good friends understand that. Prioritise what you need to do, it's just me.

'I have to make it work. I am tired but of course, I'm going to be tired. I'm bringing up a human soul, that's what I signed up for.

'Think how many mums out there are struggling 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 following, I've really understood it more since having a baby. It's so nice to resonate and it really is a positive place'.

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

It was believed the pair were back together after they shared a post kissing on New Year's Eve.
