Love Island star claims ex is in ‘two minds’ about attending birth
The former Love Island star revealed that she had tried to reconcile with her ex Gary Lucy after discovering she was pregnant.
Laura Anderson met the actor when they appeared on E4’s Celebs Go Dating last year.
However, they ended their relationship early this year, soon after finding out she was pregnant.
Speaking to the Mirror, she shared that things were “civil” between the two but that he was “welcome at the birth”.
The blonde star added: “He’s currently in two minds so I’ve asked my mum as well, as you are allowed two birthing partners.

Express.co.uk has contacted Gary’s reps for comment.
The Scottish star told the same publication that the pregnancy “was planned” and “was both of [their] decisions”.
However, she stated that she had always imagined having a traditional family set-up in her thirties and it had currently “been a bit of a roller-coaster”.
She continued: “Going through a public break-up while pregnant and reading mistruths in the media has been a challenge.
“I think if I can get through this, I can get through anything.”
She first revealed the baby news in February with a video montage on Instagram.
Gary then confirmed that evening that the two had split.
The former Eastenders star told The Sun that their relationship ended after a disagreement over where they would live as a new family.
“Laura did want me to move but I have my responsibilities here.”
He shared that whilst Laura wanted to return to her native Scotland, Gary wished to remain close to his children from a previous relationship with Natasha Gray.
The ex-Hollyoaks actor added: “My children need me and living such a long way from them just would not be possible.
“I wish I could break myself in half. I would if I could.”
Whilst things appear to be amicable as he praised the upcoming mother for doing a “wonderful job”, Laura’s latest interview revealed the reason for their break-up was untrue.
She shared that she “was always moving to Essex” and that his reveal of the gender on his story left her “shocked and upset”.
“I was upset that he revealed it on a whim on his socials – that wasn’t planned.”
Laura continued: “I’ve learned that life doesn’t always go as you hoped. It’s done now and it is what it is.”
