But when she's not presenting for theChannel 4show, the 40-year-old can be found at home with her two children. Here's all you need to know and some of their gorgeous photos.
Meet her children
Laura shares two children with her former husband Alex Goward whom she split from in 2022 after ten years together.
In 2013, it was announced that the former couple had welcomed their first child, a son named Rocco. Two years later, in May 2015, Laura announced she had given birth to their second child, a daughter named Tahlia.
The former Dancing On Ice finalist occasionally posts pictures of her little ones on Instagram, including the adorable snap above. The picture sees mum Laura and Tahlia posing together as they enjoy a day out to see Cinderella at the theatre.
Many followers were quick to comment on the post, gushing at the sweet snap. One person wrote: "If your daughter grows up half as beautiful as you, she will be a stunner," while another added: "Beautiful picture. One for her to keep for many years."

Laura's love life
The Channel 4 presenter married Alex in 2012, but the pair have since divorced. Speaking about the couple's decision to go their separate ways, Laura told HELLO!: "It was a decision we both came to. We have an enormous amount of respect for each other, but we are now on different paths.
"At the point it was announced, we'd already overcome a lot of difficult times. But I am lucky that we have the relationship and respect for each other that we have, and our children's happiness will always be our priority."
As of 2024, Laura is reportedly dating CEO James Pettigrew. The TV star is yet to address the reports.
Her career and debut on A Place in the Sun
Laura began her TV career on children's TV show Fun Song Factory for CITV before going on to appear in other roles for shows such as Nickheads and Toonattik. In 2011, Laura was signed up to compete in Dancing On Ice and was partnered with Canadian pro Colin Ratushniak.
Laura wowed the judges and viewers at home and sailed through to the final, receiving a perfect score in the process – coming in second place in the competition. The year after, Laura made her debut in A Place in the Sun and has been a regular face on the show ever since.
