Laura Woods is expecting her first child with boyfriend Adam Collard – 10 months after the pair went public with their romance.
The ITV Sports presenter, 37, and the Love Island star, 28, took to Instagram on Sunday to announce that she was pregnant.
Posting a snap of her French bulldog and a sonogram, Laura revealed the happy news with the caption: ‘Hey baby.’
But as the congratulatory comments came flooding in, several fans remarked how they had suspected the couple’s happy news prior to their announcement.
While continuing to star on TV to present ITV’s coverage of the 2024 Euros, Laura had noticeably not posted any photos to her Instagram for several weeks.

Since going public, both her and Adam have not shied away from giving an insight into their romance on social media, but have both briefly stopped from posting shots together in recent days.
Laura’s last snap saw her pose with former footballer Ally McCoist for a selfie, but she kept the camera on their faces and away from her stomach.
While during her time presenting the Euros from Germany, she swapped her usual tight-fitted chic dresses for suits and double-breasted blazers.
And in clips of her posted from ITV, fans couldn’t help but speculate if she was pregnant, as they noted her change in wardrobe and her ‘glowing’ beauty.
One person wrote: ‘Woodsy glowing with health, looking double hot, absolute stunner … is she expecting???’
Meanwhile, Adam dropped a hint that he had undergone a recent positive life change last week, when he took to his Instagram to share a snap of a post-it note that read: ‘Just remember 5 years ago, you dreamed about where you are now’.
He also shared a sweet string of black-and-white photos of him and Laura to celebrate her birthday at the start of the month, captioned: ‘happy birthday you rockstar x’.
The Love Island star has made no secret of his desire to ‘marry and have kids’ with the TNT sports host.

Adam previously admitted: ‘I’m protective, whether it’s Laura, or my family, my friends.
‘I want to get married. I want to have kids as well. I’ve always thought, what type of person will I be? How can I protect my kids?
‘Obviously I’ve never had a kid, but I don’t think I’ll be plastering it all over [social media]. I want them to have a fair fight and a chance not to be judged straight away.
‘As long as my really close circle knows exactly who I am, I don’t care. I think you have to take everything with a pinch of salt.’
He’s also claimed that he is mature for his age and was better suited an older partner, dismissing concerns about their eight-year age gap.
He said: ‘We are not necessarily the average everyday couple. We’re both doing a lot and I think that I’ve always been beyond my years anyway, I think it’s probably exactly everything that I’ve needed for a long time.’
Adam, who starred on Love Island in both 2018 and 2022, as well as on Celebs Go Dating last year, met Laura after cheekily sliding into her DMs.
The reality TV lothario opened up about how the pair got to know each during an appearance on a an episode of the Getting Lippy Gossip Show in December.

‘I’d followed her on Instagram because I’d seen a Lionesses game or something like that and then I DMd her because she put like a funny meme on her story,’ he said.
‘I will hold my hands up, yes I acknowledge that even though she’s had my life about this a lot of times.’
The pair had crossed paths before Adam made his move – but he did not know she was famous.
‘The funny part of the story is, for a football fan as well, I actually didn’t know who she was,’ Adam said. ‘Well I knew who she was as in I recognised and knew her face, but I didn’t know that was Laura Woods in terms of her.
‘So I went in for a podcast just like this at The Sun. She walked past me and the girl that was chaperoning us through as like “That’s Laura Woods” and I was like [shrugs] but she had her back turned to us, she was like miles behind us.’
Adam then said it was ‘fast forward months and months and months’ before he tried his luck with the presenter.
In March, Adam and Laura packed on the PDA as he gave a glimpse into their romantic holiday to Mexico.

Adam has also gushed that he already knows that Laura is The One, and in stark contrast to his lothario past, declared he will be settling down with her
It marked the second lavish holiday in two months for the lovebirds, after they went skiing in the French Alps with a group of pals in February.
Adam has also gushed that he already knows that Laura is The One, and in stark contrast to his lothario past, declared he will be settling down with her.
He previously insisted: ‘I would never get in a relationship with someone [unless], at least at one point, I thought they were The One.’
And he reiterated these sentiments when a fan asked commented on a photo of the couple: ‘Is this the first time you’ve ever put a women (sic) on your news feed?’ and Adam replied: ‘The last.’
