Baby News! Laura Woods & Adam Collard Expecting First Child
Sports pundit Laura Woods and former Love Island star Adam Collard are expecting their first child together. The couple announced the happy news this weekend with a photo of Laura's pregnancy scan, accompanied by a simple caption: "Hey, baby ð."
Despite the excitement of the news, Laura chose to disable comments on her Instagram post. This didn't stop the photo from garnering thousands of likes, however. Adam also reposted the image on his own Instagram Story, which boasts a following of one million.
The couple, who went public with their romance last October, have kept their relationship relatively low-key. While they initially shared few photos together online, they've recently offered glimpses of their life as a couple through social media, leaving sweet comments on each other's posts and sharing snaps from romantic getaways. Earlier this month, Adam shared black-and-white photos of their time together to celebrate Laura's birthday, captioning the post: "Happy birthday you rockstar x."
Adam has been open about his feelings for Laura, calling her the woman who stole his heart. The former Love Island Lothario, who previously dated a string of high-profile women including Lottie Moss, seems to have finally found his forever. In an interview with The Mirror, Adam shared, "It's going great, you know. She's amazing and we are having a lot of fun. It feels like Iâm living the dream."
Their relationship blossomed after a chance meeting at a podcast event. Adam, despite being a football fan, initially didn't recognize Laura. Months later, he took a chance and sent her a direct message on Instagram after seeing a funny meme on her story.
Looking to the future, Adam has spoken about his desire to marry Laura and start a family with the TNT Sports host. He revealed, "I'm protective, whether it's Laura, or my family, my friends. I want to get married. I want to have kids as well. Iâve always thought, what type of person will I be? How can I protect my kids?"
While he's excited about fatherhood, Adam has also thought about how he'll raise his children in the public eye. "Obviously, Iâve never had a kid, but I donât think Iâll be plastering it all over [social media]," he shared. "I want them to have a fair fight and a chance not to be judged straight away. As long as my really close circle knows exactly who I am, I donât care. I think you have to take everything with a pinch of salt."
Laura, who has maintained a private personal life, previously dated former England rugby player Alex Corbisiero for eight years. As she prepares to embrace motherhood, she will be joined by her supportive partner, Adam, who has stated that he believes Laura is "the one." Congratulations to the happy couple as they embark on this exciting new chapter in their lives!
