Laura Anderson confesses she has been ‘cut deep’ by cruel troll who mum-shamed her on social media

Laura Anderson has revealed she was ‘cut deep’ by a cruel troll who  mum-shamed her on social media.

The former Love Island star, 35, shares her baby girl, Bonnie, 18 months, with soap star ex Gary Lucy, 42. 

And while she went out for lunch with her current boyfriend, Clark Robertson, 31, Laura, explained that she received a message from an unkind follower. 

She confessed that the message really upset her after the troll slammed her for going out to lunch without her child. 

In a clip posted to Instagram, Laura explained the build up before she saw the nasty message. 

She said: ‘Hey gang, Bonnie’s just having her lunch I thought I’d come on and catch up with you. I actually got so upset yesterday, right.

‘Technically had a ‘day off’ Bonnie – my mum has her on a Wednesday now I’ve finished the radio. 

‘So I had some work to do, Clark came through and we ended up going for lunch, which was amazing. 

‘And I just did a bit of a appreciation post, ‘Oh it’s so nice to go for lunch and kind of not have her and be able to relax and not rush’.

‘I was feeling really positive, feeling really good – you know, quality time with Clarke, you know we do long distance it’s not that easy. 

‘And then, somebody sent me a message saying, ‘When is Bonnie not with your mum hun?’ 

‘And I don’t know why but it actually made me so upset, like I had to hold back tears in my favourite restaurant and I think Clark was quite shocked at how I reacted.’

Explaining her reasons behind sharing the message she had received, Laura added: ‘I don’t wanna share this for sympathy or a reaction I just, I’ve thought about it and I just think, you know, on here I just say whatever is going on in my life. 

‘And I shocked myself with my reaction, usually I’m just so unfazed now by any kind of negativity on comments or DMs, like weird DMs that I get.

‘But this one really cut me deep. And I was annoyed at myself that I let it affect me that much – I think that was what I was more frustrated about, that I let it ruin my day.

‘And I actually replied to the girl – she had a kid as well – and she came back with like more kind of pᴀssive aggressive judgmental comments. 

‘And it’s funny I remember seeing something about Ashley James saying something about going on holiday without your children and people kind of troll you and I didn’t have that recently when I went to Dubai so I was shocked that I had it now just going for lunch. 

‘So I think it just makes me think if a small comment like that can affect me so much what about other more vulnerable people or insecure people than me – or going through XYZ that makes them vulnerable in that moment – like how are they affected by others online?

‘I mean, obviously, we’ve spoken about trolling for years now, which is great to bring it up but I really thought I had it in the bag, I really thought I was alright and then this comment just floored me it really took me a lot to get over it. 

‘And now – I don’t know if this was the reason – but my dad was going to have Bonnie this weekend because I have more work to do and now I’m feeling like I don’t wanna leave her and I don’t know if it’s because of that comment or, I don’t know.

‘So now I just don’t think I’m gonna take her to my dad’s. I’m just trying to understand what’s going on in my own brain here. 

‘Oh mad, mad mum guilt going on. I actually also scrolled up and I think, what you’ll find is when someone says one thing over months and months they’ll have had similar pᴀssive aggressive comments about other things.

‘I think I’d posted when I went to pilates and she’d wrote, ‘Oh jumping on the bandwagon as usual hun’ I’m just like, ‘Uh what is the point in that?’ Like I think you all know by now I get so many lovely messages, ‘Oh you’re such a good mum’ and I’m sure you all – whoever is a mum – is as well.

‘I love being around Bonnie but it is amazing having time to yourself. And it’s just a struggle mentally, trying to figure out that balance. 

‘I’m not that good at making decisions sometimes and it’s a constant decision. Even having a boyfriend now, Clarke, we want to have time together but then I want to be with Bonnie, but then I need to choose work. It’s like, how do you figure out your time?’

Her admission comes just months after she rushed Bonnie to hospital in November after she suffered a terrifying febrile convulsions at home.

A febrile seizure (febrile convulsion or fit) can sometimes happen when a child has a high temperature. 

Alongside a picture of her little girl during a morning walk, Laura told how she knew what was happening to her girl due to her experience while working as a flight attendant, but it didn’t stop it from being a scary incident.

She penned: ‘Feeling very grateful after a dash to A&E last night.

‘Luckily enough I knew what a febrile convulsion was from being crew but my goodness, it’s a different story when it’s your child and you have to drive to the hospital yourself.’

The Scottish beauty added: ‘Also hats off to all the parents dealing with severely sick children and to the strength these children have.

‘I do not know how you cope.’

Meanwhile, hours before sharing an update on her daughter’s health, Laura shared a cryptic quote about ‘evolving’, which could have perhaps been a swipe at her ex.

The quote read: ‘I heard someone say, Unfortunately some people were not put here to evolve. They are here to remind you what it looks like if you don’t.

‘And it makes so much sense.’ 

In September, Gary hit back at a cruel troll after he was accused of not seeing daughter Bonnie by his ex Laura.

Laura took to her Instagram in July responding to a comment as she claimed Gary hadn’t seen his daughter since early January.

Responding to a troll who questioned whether Bonnie ever sees her father, Laura replied: ‘Do you mean has her daddy seen her…. No he hasn’t since 2nd January if you would like to direct those questions to him as I have no control over the actions of others x.’  

A representative for Gary declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline at the time.

The EastEnders star broke his silence on the matter when a cruel troll commented below a recent Instagram clip of his children.

The very sweet clip captured his son playing with Bonnie, who was laying in a bouncer.

‘When Theodore got to be the big Brother for the day …. If this doesn’t melt your heart I don’t know what will ♥️,’ he captioned.

The post was flooded with touching comments, yet a negative one caught Gary’s eye.

‘Funny you keep posting videos but you never see her,’ a person wrote – but the actor was quick to reply: ‘Nope only you “shaz” everyone else seemed to just enjoy a lovely video …. 

‘I’ll block ya in a bit … then ya can set up a new email / insta profile so ya can keep a bitter twisted eye on my page.’

He went on adding in another comment below: ‘Course she does .. she’s invested hours n hours on ppls “instagram lives” that’s gotta going for something right ….. oh wait.’

One fan raced in his support, commenting: ‘Sounds like the Gary police are out in force today, leave the man alone, if you don’t like what he posts then don’t look and unfollow, I’m sure he won’t give a, its his profile, he can post what he likes. Rant over.’
