Laura, meanwhile, revealed on last night’s show she is concerned about her nine-year age gap with partner Wes Nelson, 20.

They’ve been coupled up since day one but Laura admitted concerns they may want different things.

During a chat in the garden, Laura told Wes she was looking for a relationship and future, rather than something casual.

She said: “I know that it doesn’t seem like there’s a big age gap, but there is. I don’t feel it, it’s just I would feel bad on you. Obviously I don’t want to waste my time and I wouldn’t want to waste your time. I don’t know, I’m just over thinking and worrying a little bit.”

Wes insisted the age gap doesn’t bother him at all.

He told Laura: “Honestly my outlook on it is I genuinely came on to find someone that’s beautiful that I can get to know, that I can properly understand on a deep level and settle down with. And actually go on a journey with as opposed to just having a bit of fun with. I want something that’s going to last. As corny as it sounds I want something that’s forever.”

Laura replied: “Obviously it chills me out a bit because I am looking to find a husband.”

Wes agreed: “Yeah, definitely. That’s what I’m talking about. I’m here to find a girlfriend. I feel like we’re on the same page. You’re a girl that I’d love to take home and meet my mum. Meet my family. You’d fit in really well.”
