Love Island’s Laura thrilled by her crush Eamonn Holmes’ message

Last month, she admitted she fancies the presenter

Love Island’s Laura Anderson has revealed Eamonn Holmes messaged her after she admitted at the villa she has a little crush on the This Morning presenter.

During Love Island: The Reunion on Sunday night, host Caroline Flack quizzed Laura about her crush as Laura sat alongside her partner Paul Knops.

Speaking about Eamonn, Scottish cabin crew worker Laura said: “I just really love him. I think he’s really handsome.”

Caroline asked: “[You told me] he messaged you, did he slide into your DMs?”

Giggling, Laura replied: “No no no, in a nice way! He just said, ‘Thanks for the love and the support.’ And that was it. It was a nice thing!”

Caroline also surprised Laura by revealing Eamonn, 57, had a message for her.

In a funny skit for the show, Eamonn jokingly declared his love for Laura before his wife Ruth Langsford interrupted his confession.

Sitting on the This Morning sofa and holding his Love Island water bottle, Eamonn told the camera: “Hello Laura, Eamonn here, but you knew that already.

“Thanks for your lovely words of admiration towards me. You made an old man very happy.”

Acting as if he was a contestant on the show, Eamonn continued: “Talking about being happy, I’m happily married to the lovely Ruth.

“The big question is, ‘could I be happier?’ Times like this you need to follow your heart.”

But before he could carry on his message, Ruth interrupted and poked fun at the Love Island lingo.

She said: “What are you doing? Are you cracking on with that Laura one?”

Quoting Georgia Steel’s infamous catchphrase on the show, Ruth added: “Because you know I’m loyal babes! Don’t mug me off!”

FYI, Georgia constantly declared she was “loyal” during her time in the villa.

Last month, Laura surprised her fellow islanders by revealing her crush on Eamonn.

After Laura’s confession, Eamonn tweeted: “I have to thank that lovely Laura girl from # for the nice things she said about me. Let’s just not share them with @RuthieeL.

“I don’t want to get my mugged offs and Cracking on’s mixed up …but plenty to discuss on Tomorrow’s This Morning.”

The following day, Eamonn and Ruth discussed Laura’s admission as they co-hosted This Morning.

Ruth said: “Look Laura, very good taste and I can understand why.
