ITV Presenter Laura Woods Pregnant with Love Island Star Adam Collard's Child
ITV Sports presenter Laura Woods, 37, and Love Island star Adam Collard, 28, are expecting their first child together. The news comes just 10 months after the pair went public with their romance.
Woods shared the happy news on Instagram on Sunday, posting a photo of her French bulldog alongside a sonogram and the simple caption, "Hey baby."
The couple's relationship first became public in October 2023, after Woods accidentally posted a series of loved-up snaps that were later deleted.
Earlier this month, Collard celebrated Woods' 37th birthday with a heartfelt message and a collection of photos on social media. The post showcased the couple's affection, with Collard affectionately calling Woods a "rockstar."
The pair's journey began with Collard sliding into Woods' DMs. He revealed the story during an appearance on the "Getting Lippy Gossip Show" in December, admitting that he had followed her on Instagram after seeing her present a Lionesses game.
"I will hold my hands up, yes I acknowledge that even though sheâs had my life about this a lot of times," he said, adding that he didn't initially know Woods' fame.
The couple's relationship has blossomed since then, marked by romantic trips to Mexico and the French Alps. In a previous interview, Collard had expressed his desire to marry and have children, hinting at the future he envisioned with Woods.
While he acknowledged the potential scrutiny that comes with being a public figure, Collard emphasized his desire to protect his future family from judgment. He has stated that he wouldn't be oversharing his family life on social media to allow his children a chance to grow up without constant public attention.
Despite the eight-year age gap, Collard maintains that their unique dynamic works, saying, "We are not necessarily the average everyday couple. We're both doing a lot and I think that I've always been beyond my years anyway, I think it's probably exactly everything that I've needed for a long time."
The couple's news has been met with congratulations from fans and fellow celebrities, as they embark on this new chapter in their relationship and prepare to welcome their first child.
