Laura Anderson shows off her blossoming bump in a bright pink swimsuit in the Maldives

Pregnant Laura Anderson showed off her baby bump on Monday while enjoying a luxury vacation in the Maldives.

The Love Island star, 33, is expecting her first child with actor Gary Lucy, 41, after first meeting on Celebs Go Dating last year.

But after the couple’s recent split, and the drama that followed, she’s been distracting herself with some well-deserved time at the island’s luxurious private resort, Ayada Maldives.

Posing for a picturesque photo, Laura changed into a bright pink bathing suit and went kayaking while soaking up the sun in the Indian Ocean paradise.

The reality TV personality cradled her tummy and looked into the distance.

The beauty tied her hair up in two French braids, while accessorizing with a pair of dark sunglasses.

Captioning the post, she wrote: “Kayak for one.”

Laura shared a series of hilarious snaps poolside in the Maldives earlier this week, showing off her beautiful pregnant silhouette in a brown bikini.

She styled her look with pink Ralph Lauren sliders and shielded her blue eyes with a pair of oversized square sunglasses.

The blonde beauty left her hair down as she posed by the pool and ocean holding a coconut water.

The photos of her getaway to the beach come after Laura confirmed that she knows the sex of her baby and has already chosen a name.

Laura admitted that she is not ready to reveal the news publicly yet and that she will do so in “proper time”.

speaking to Goss.esLaura said: ‘I know what I’m having and I have a name. I will share in due time… I have already made a small [gender reveal party], but I haven’t shared it publicly yet. But I will soon.

Laura recently dealt a blow to society’s gender norms when she let out her frustration via Instagram Stories.

The beauty questioned why women are treated differently than men when they say they would like to have children.

Stating that women are branded as ‘desperate’ and ‘needy’ when they want to have children, he compared this to the label of ‘loving’ and ‘caring’ given to men when they say the same thing.

Currently expecting her first child with actor Gary, the reality star has been documenting the pregnancy by sharing updates with her 1.5 million followers.

She and the Hollyoaks star, who met while filming Celebs Go Dating last year, are no longer together and have been posting a series of cryptic comments via their respective social media accounts.

Sharing her thoughts on a selfie while riding the train to a hair date, Laura wrote: ‘I’ve been thinking.

‘Why in society when a man says he wants children is he seen as brave, courageous, loving? But when women say they want children, they are seen as desperate and needy users.

In February, Laura revealed that she and her ex Gary Lucy are “definitely not on great terms” amid their recent breakup drama.

Following a whirlwind romance, they announced they were expecting their first child together earlier this month, but news of their split broke soon after.

And during an Instagram Q&A, she was quick to dismiss any suggestion that the couple get back together.

Laura simply replied: ‘No’ before saying that she ‘hopes that once the baby is here’, she and the Hollyoaks actor can successfully co-parent.
