Laura had been filming Love Island spin-off Where Are They Now? with Jack Fincham and Dr Alex George when a photo shared by her co-stars saw fans branding her recognisable.
Hitting back at hurtful comments with a make-up free selfie a day later, Laura said: ‘I’ve purposefully put no filter on this.
‘Yesterday I had such a good day filming with Jack and Alex and then Jack put up a picture of the three of us, which obviously is like, cute, but I got so much abuse.

‘Like, “Laura doesn’t look like Laura any more”. It’s really nice to read all those comments and I just think people need to get over the fact that a picture is just a picture.
‘I wanted to come on here with no makeup on and I think I look fine, so thanks for the abuse. Anyway, positive love.’
Laura hit back after social media users highlighted the blonde’s dramatically ‘different’ appearance.

The media personality has made no secret of having Botox and lip fillers in the past – treatments she claimed she planned before entering the villa in 2018.
It’s been a tough time for Laura who revealed earlier this month that she had split from her fitness coach boyfriend Tom just days after moving back to Scotland.
Despite initially intending for Tom to join her in Glasgow six months into her move, it now seems their romance is off.
Stirling born Laura told fans on an Instagram story: ‘Thankyou for all the DMs asking about Tom and I since I moved up north.

‘Unfortunately it hasn’t worked out between us. In respect of Tom’s privacy I won’t be discussing this further. All my love to him and you all for continued support.’
Although the pair never revealed exactly when they met, the couple went public with their romance in May and spent lockdown together at Laura’s London flat.
Laura, who moved to the swanky Park Circus area of Glasgow earlier in the month, said she had fully hoped Tom would join her in her new home.
She had gushed that she’d never met anyone like him before adding: ‘I’m still going to move to Scotland and Tom is looking to follow me up in the next six months. He’s the cherry on top of the cake.’
