The former flight attendant had her heart broken more times than most people do in a lifetime during her stint in the villa.
To refresh your memory, Laura coupled up with Wes Nelson on day one, and things were going swimmingly for the pair, with Wes admitting he was 'falling' for Laura just a week into their relationship.
But things took a turn when Megan Barton-Hanson famously made her move on the 20-year-old and asked him for a kiss on the roof terrace.

Laura then moved on with Jack Fowler when he entered the villa, and it seemed like things were finally going her way - until Jack's dreaded date with Georgia Steel that saw her insisting she's 'loyal, babe'.
But despite facing betrayal from her man and from her friends, Laura managed to keep her head high, proving it's always better to forgive.
Thankfully, that's all well in the past, and Laura's set to start a new chapter in life. All that's left to say is a huge congratulations!
