The Scots influencer, from Stirling, has been waiting to find her soulmate starring on the 2018 series of the ITV hit dating show.
At the time, she finished runner-up with Paul Knops, but after they split, she went on to date Another Level's Dane Bowers, 45, and Hollyoaks actor Gary Lucy, who is the dad to her daughter Bonnie.
But it seems that the ex-air hostess has now found her perfect match with Clark.
And the couple looked super loved up as they went out to celebrate their anniversary.
In the adorable post, Laura called Clark her "hot man" and hailed his "devotion as a father" to her little girl Bonnie, who turns two in September.
She wrote: "Celebrating our one year anniversary.
Our love story is like no other, most of which we do not share. Your modesty for a hot man is unmatched, as is your devotion as a father
Laura Anderson
"Our love story is like no other, most of which we do not share. Your modesty for a hot man is unmatched, as is your devotion as a father.
"Thank you for being yourself, thank you for being a role model to Bonnie and thank you for always closing the fridge door behind me.
"Love always, your wee f*****".
Her loyal 1.5million followers flocked to the comments to compliment Laura and congratulate the couple.

One person said: "Awww, so happy for you, babe, happy anniversary".
Another added: "Happy anniversary, Laura, looking gorgeous as always, and you deserve all the happiness in the world".
Someone else wrote: "Isn't it funny how fate has worked out! We are all so happy for you".
While a fourth posted: "You both look so happy together... you deserve so much happiness, Laura".
And a fifth chimed in: "Happy anniversary, Laura. Gorgeous couple".
Laura previously admitted that she used to hate watching football - but is now learning the rules so she can fawn over her fella.
Laura told the Scottish Sun: 'I guess I'm a WAG now. I actually really like football. I didn't really like it before.
" To be honest, it just reminded me of my dad hogging the remote when we were young, and I never got to watch what I wanted to watch.
SINGLE MUM SWIPE
THE gushing post comes a month after Laura took a swipe at her daughter's dad Gary Lucy on Father's Day.
"Cheers to the single mums that feel s*** for their kids on Father's Day," Laura penned over the top of a video of herself frowning, seemingly taking a veiled dig at her ex.
Laura then put a thumb up before the screen went blank and only the caption remained.
Laura welcomed daughter Bonnie, whom she shares with ex Gary, in 2023.
The couple had an on-and-off relationship, but things are now on bad terms with Laura even branding Gary a "deadbeat dad".
Last month Gary seemingly reignited his feud with his Celebs Go Dating ex Laura after warning that "dads matter".
The former Footballers' Wives star made the apparent dig while sharing a throwback video of himself and his son Theodore, six.
Laura has taken aim at Gary several times in the past over Bonnie being snapped with her dad rarely.
Gary and Laura met while filming E4's Celebs Go Dating in 2022. At the end of 2022, the pair revealed they were expecting a child together.
Laura broke things off with Gary shortly after they celebrated the happy pregnancy news together. They split after they attended their first baby scan together.
'But now I like going to the games.
"I think he looks very sexy actually, because he's quite bossy on the pitch and he's not like that day-to-day. He's such a relaxed, chilled-out guy.
'So on the pitch he's always pointing and I'm like 'what the hell what's going on?''
Clark even reckons that young Bonnie could be the next in line for soccer stardom.
Laura added: 'Clark did say Bonnie's got a good left foot and she's actually really good at football already.
'I think I'm going to take credit for it because I started her out on the ball before I met Clark, but I think he might be trying to take credit that she's somehow following in his footsteps.'

David Beckham and Amanda Holden lead celebrations after Lionesses' Euros triumph
Social media is ablaze with celebrations and congratulatory messages following the Lionesses' historic win in the Euro 2025 final. Tonight, England took on Spain live from St Jakob-Park in Basel, Switzerland, in the hopes of replicating their Euro 2022 success against Germany at Wembley. And boy did they, as Sarina Wiegman's squad triumphed over their former rivals, having lost to Spain once before in the World Cup final. With no intention of admitting defeat at any point, the 1-1 game was taken to penalties, which led to England thrashing their opponents 3-1 and going on to lift that glorious trophy. It's safe to say the scenes were emotional as the Lionesses pulled one another into hugs and wiped away tears after Alex Greenwood, Niamh Charles, and Chloe Kelly scored in their shoot-outs, causing the stadium to erupt. The reactions were just as wild back home, too, as celebrities including Piers Morgan, Amanda Holden, Rylan Clark, and Alan Carr were keen to wish captain Leah Williamson and her teammates a very big well done. 'BOOOM! Well done @Lionesses – and great to see an Arsenal star score the winning penalty. Congrats @chloekelly', posted long-time Arsenal fan Morgan on X. 'YESSSSSSS @Lionesses GO ON GIRLLLSSSS', wrote an excitable Rylan. Alongside a snap of herself with Williamson at Glastonbury last year, country music icon Shania Twain had the most fitting use for her most famous lyric, writing: 'SO happy for the Lionesses … Let's f***ing go girls!!' 'They've done it again.. Back To Back! Massive', tweeted Rio Ferdinand alongside a smiley snap with the team. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer penned: 'Champions! Congratulations @Lionesses — what a team. What a game. What drama. You dug deep when it mattered most and you've made the nation proud. History makers.' And while a homecoming parade will be held in London on Tuesday for the Lionesses, Labour leader Sir Keir previously suggested a bank holiday would not be implemented if the team were to win, despite overwhelming demands from footie fans. Over on Instagram, Spice Girl Mel B posted, 'Yes yes yesssss!!! Girl power!!!!!!!!' on her Story, while Jess Glynne, who is dating Alex Scott, also watched along from home. The Hold My Hand hitmaker shared a video of her TV and could be heard shouting: 'Come on, the girls! What are you sayin'? Oi oi! Proud of you! Come on.' Ever the supportive girlfriend, she also shared a clip of Scott, whom she began dating in 2023, presenting for BBC Sport, writing alongside it sweetly: 'My womannnnn'. Elsewhere, Holden and Carr watched the nail-biting final together, along with their crew, as they are currently away shooting their new series of Amanda & Alan's Greek Job. The hilarious TV duo filmed themselves soaking up the glory as England won the match before bursting into the Three Lions anthem. Ashley James also filmed herself and showed her family giddy with joy after Kelly successfully bagged the winning penalty, while Stacey Solomon caught the action from her widescreen TV in Pickle Cottage. The Loose Women and Sort Your Life Out star was joined by what sounded to be her entire brood, who grew justifiably rowdy once England's victory was sealed. 'Smashed it gals', Solomon wrote alongside a gorgeous clip of her sons dancing around in the living room. Also watching from home was Romeo Beckham, while dad Sir David Beckham posted a slew of pics in the aftermath of the win. Ever the patriot, the sporting legend's Insta Story was full of lion and England flag emojis as he heaped praise on the 'champions' and tagged several players, adding a special 'well done' to Michelle Agyemang. While Becks is currently holidaying in sunnier climates with his famous family and therefore not at tonight's match, one public figure who did put in an appearance was Prince William. More Trending The Prince of Wales took daughter Charlotte to the final and later shared a joint personal message in celebration. This also marked the first time the 10-year-old Princess has ever signed off an official message. It read: 'What a game! @lionesses, you are the champions of Europe and we couldn't be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment @England. W & Charlotte.' The Prince of Wales, who is patron of the Football Association (FA), sat next to the PM for the match and later made his way to the pitch for the trophy ceremony. Other famous faces sharing their reactions to England's epic win this evening included Peter Andre, James Bond favourite Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jessie Ware, Ashley Cain, and Amelia Dimoldenberg.

Love Island fans say they have 'no shame' amid Harry's 'game plan' as he makes savage switch
Love Island fans were adamant they had worked out Harry Cooksley's plans as he was once again involved in a drama filled episode of the ITV2 dating series Love Island fans were quick to point out the "game plan" of Harry Cooksley after yet more drama involving the 30 year old. Despite being coupled up with Helena, Harry has continuously shared cheeky and flirtatious chat with other girls in the villa. And his ways have caused former partner Shakira's head to be turned despite being in a pair with Conor. And following Friday night's dramatic antics, fans are certain they know what Harry is up to as a dramatic recoupling took place on tonight's show. There were tears for Harry as he spoke to Helena who promised she could not be friends with him in the villa or on the outside. And he was backed by the boys as he sulked. However, the recoupling led fans to have the same thoughts. With just Helena and Shakira left standing waiting to be picked, Harry said he had "disappointed myself" before saying he knows he's not perfect. He said he had "chose to ignore" the feelings he had for her as he told Shakira he was either leaving the villa alone or with her. He made his decision, with Shakira hugging him and leaving Helena left standing alone, much to the disappointment of other islanders. After Blu was left to pick Helena, she took his words on board before getting up and quickly walking away from the fire pit. And taking to social media, fans of the show made their feelings known. One user on Twitter /X said: "Harry knows Shakira is most popular with public his game plan working to a tee." And it was shown in other comments by viewers. "IF THERE IS A VOTE IM VOTING HARRY AND SHAKIRA WITH NO SHAME #LoveIsland," admitted one user. Another added: "Just watch! People will vote for Harry and Shakira," while a third said: "Yessss Harry beautiful speech, you're back in the game. Team Harry and Shakira" On Friday's edition, he was finally exposed to the villa for his actions that had caused drama between the girls for weeks - leading to a split. He had played Shakira and Helena against each other time and time again, and sat back as Helena and Shakira took the triangle drama out on each other. His exclusive pairing with Helena had left Shakira devastated after feeling isolated in recent weeks. However, just a day after moving their relationship on, Harry was hinting to Dejon how he still liked Shakira. He also hinted he wasn't that into Helena, before appearing to try and pick a fight with her at the Grafties. The awkward scenes playing out in front of the camera saw Helena end things for good. His comments about "loving" his ex Emma and him flirting with others, not to mention his chats with Shakira, all played on the awards ceremony in the vila. And the footballer also made a comment about having a better experience with Shakira than Helena. Helena ended up calling Harry "a f*****g joke". She then told him: "Shakira doesn't want you, I don't want you." With that the other Islanders smirked as Helena appeared to end things.
