Laura Anderson explains why she got back with Dane Bowers after he 'saw someone else'

Love Island 's Laura Anderson has explained why she got back together with current boyfriend Dane Bowers despite him seeing someone else behind her back.

The Scottish beauty met Dane when she was living in Dubai in 2017, before her stint on the ITV dating show, and the pair had an instant connection.

But in the early days of their romance, he was seeing another woman.

"We were dating for six months when I found out he was seeing someone else," she explained.

"We weren’t in a relationship at that point, and we never said we were exclusive, but I was disappointed, so I confronted him and ended it."

It was after this Laura signed up for Love Island in 2018 where she met Paul Knops, and the pair were runners up to winners Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham.

After things ended with Paul, the ITV dating show star texted Dane for support as the two were close friends until things turned romantic earlier this year.

"I never thought I’d be able to trust Dane again, but I trust him more than anyone I’ve ever been with – even people who haven’t cheated," she said to The Sun.

The two got closer as she moved back to Dubai with him, with the couple ready to take the next step in their relationship.

"We’ve looked at engagement rings and we’re trying to have a baby, but it can take ages to conceive," Laura added.

Back in September, Laura and Dane shut down claims that they were no longer together as rumours circulated online.

Laura shared a snap of her and her singer boyfriend and captioned the image: "Me making him do quarantine with me again!"

She also shared a story of the pair lying around. She was wearing a face mask while the Out of Your Mind singer was lying next to her catching a bit of sun.

In the clip, the 32-year-old said: "It must be love if you quarantine with me!," while Dane replied: "Of course, babe!"

The pair reignited their flame earlier in the year, although their romantic connection dates back to before her time on Love Island.

They soon moved back in together but rumours were circulating that they had once again called time on their relationship.

A source told The Sun at the time: "Dane and Laura had a big row last month. Things had been going well but now it seems like they have hit a bump in the road.

"Officially they are still together but they have decided to spend some time apart."
