The couple announced their engagement in September when Adam got down on one knee at the beach in St Ives.

Alongside snaps of the special moment, Laura wrote: 'And just like that… You make me happy.

'Thank you @carbisbayestate - the place we fell in love and now the place we got engaged, you made it so special. What a summer x.'

Sharing his own gallery of photos from the proposal, Adam gushed that Laura is his 'whole world'.

He wrote: 'From dates & daiquiri's to a Fiancé & a sprog on the way, our very own little team.

'My whole world. Always. @carbisbayestate where it really all began, the only place to do it x'

Laura made her surprise pregnancy announcement in July, by sharing her first glammed-up snaps to her Instagram.

Underneath the trio of pictures, Laura wrote: 'Entering the mummy era thanks to my love @makeupwithjourdan for making me feel like myself again! Come and join me at 9pm on @eurosport 1 & @discoveryplusuk tonight for all the Olympic chat you need in your life'.

Laura took to Instagram to share her happy news with her more than 700,000 followers. Posting a snap of her French bulldog and a sonogram which she and Adam held, Laura wrote in the caption: 'Hey baby.'

The couple went public with their romance in October 2023, after the sports presenter 'accidentally' posted a slew of later-deleted loved-up snaps.

Adam, who starred on Love Island in 2018 and 2022, also appeared on Celebs Go Dating last year, but he met Laura through cheekily sliding into her DMs.

The reality TV lothario proved the couple's relationship has blossomed ever since as he dubbed Laura a 'rockstar' with a cute post on her birthday.

He 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.

He said: '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.

'I will hold my hands up, yes I acknowledge that even though she's had my life about this a lot of times.'

That same month, Adam told OnlyAccounts.com: '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.'

Adam added that he is not concerned about the eight age gap between himself and Laura, saying: 'We are not necessarily the average everyday couple.

Since going public, the couple have not shied away from giving an insight into their romance, with both posting snaps of each other on Instagram.
