Laura Anderson takes savage swipe at ex Gary Lucy as she spends Father's Day alone with their daughter Bonnie - after claiming 'co-parenting and financial support didn't exist'
has taken yet another savage swipe at ex Gary Lucy as she spent Father's Day alone with their daughter Bonnie on Sunday.
The former Love Island star, 36, shares the 21-month-old with the former Hollyoaks actor, 43, who she split from during her pregnancy. After their daughter was born the pair briefly got back together before then parting for good.
Laura, who has claimed 'co-parenting and financial support didn't exist', took to her Instagram Stories saying she felt 's***' for the tot on Father's Day.
She captioned a clip of herself sarcastically giving a thumbs up she wrote: 'Cheers to the single mums that feel sh*t for their kids on Father's Day'.
Laura also shared a post about sending love on Father's Day only to add in what appeared to be another swipe: 'And Great dads who show up and financially support their children. You're children love you'.

MailOnline have contacted Gary Lucy's reps for comment.
In January Laura looked back at the last year she said the past 12 months 'weren't easy' as she never imagined that she would become a single parent.
She said that financially she wasn't supported with Bonnie and that she has been 'struggling everyday'.
Laura did however include some positive highlights in her post including meeting her new footballer boyfriend Clark Robertson.
Scottish TV star Laura took to her Instagram in July responding to a comment as she claimed Gar hadn't seen their 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.
Then in September the actor, who also shares two sons and two daughters with ex-wife Natasha, broke his silence on the matter when a cruel troll commented on a sweet clip of Bonnie playing with her elder brother.
'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.'
Earlier this month Laura hit back at trolls after suffering backlash for holidaying in the Maldives without her daughter.
She jetted off with her boyfriend Clark and shared a series of sun-soaked snaps from her romantic getaway.
While many gushed over the stunning snaps, one follower accused the reality star of abandoning her toddler.
They wrote: 'Poor Bonnie ditched again… I just wouldn't choose to leave my child over and over again thousands of miles away. A wee night away though absolutely!'
Laura wasted no time to hit back and replied: 'Over and over please explain,' with many of her fans rushing to defend her.
They branded the critic a 'mum-shamer' as they praised Laura for taking some well deserved time for herself.
Firing back once more, Laura commented: 'No one shames the dads.'
However, the original commenter doubled down, saying: 'I will if it's a dad doing it.
'Shame on Bonnie's dad, shame on my dad, shame on any dad that treats their kids the way some do. Shame on any sex.
'And I didn't say shame on you. Just said you'd ditched the wee babe again.
'I ain't ringing the bells like a town crier, just saying bairns been left to someone else to look after while you jet off again!'
Laura later clarified to fans that she had only been away for just four days and had many video calls with her daughter.

All the clues Zoe Slater star Michelle Ryan is making a bombshell return to EastEnders TONIGHT after 20 years away
EASTENDERS is set to reveal a massive surprise in tonight's episode and all the clues are pointing to it being the return of Zoe Slater. The Sun exclusively revealed how the iconic character is set to make a shock comeback 20 years after actress Michelle Ryan quit the soap. And with today's episode being held back from an early iPlayer release for new boss Ben Wadey's first episode - here are all the signs that point to Zoe's return. We know she's coming back The Sun revealed last month how Michelle Ryan was making a bombshell comeback as her iconic character. A source said: 'Bosses have repeatedly reached out to Michelle over the years, but the timing has never been quite right. 'People are still talking about her character, so it's a real coup to bring her back. 'She feels like now is the perfect moment — and there was an exciting script on the table.' But is she back tonight? It's an anniversary As we all know EastEnders loves an anniversary. It's been 20 years since Zoe's exit, and 25 five since the Slaters arrived as a big new family. With Kat taking over the Queen Vic - it's clear new boss Ben Wadey intends for the Slaters to be at the centre of the show once more. So what better way to do that than bring back to prodigal daughter? EastEnders' Kat Slater calls her estranged daughter Zoe Slater who left 13 years ago Teasers The BBC knows how to give good tease for storylines. And after a rock few years, it got its mojo back with the flashforward and The Six storyline - but now it needs something new. Videos posted onto the soap's social media have dropped a few hints that Zoe's return is imminent. One video features the distinctive sound of a woman's heels clacking through the Square. Another shows a poster with three letters standing out - Z, O and E. New boss teases 3 Ben Wadey, EastEnders Executive Producer said: 'Next week marks the start of something big in Walford that we hope will get everyone talking, and it's only just the beginning. 'We've got twists, shocks, and plenty of drama lined up for a summer you don't want to miss.' Could it be anything but Zoe at this point? Spoiler hints 3 This week we know that Alfie will get a phone call from Stacey and have a 'problem to contend with'. In tomorrow's episode, Alfie is revealed to be 'elsewhere' as Kat desperately tries to contact him. By Wednesday, Kat has spoken to Alfie but feels he isn't being completely honest with her. And Thursday, when it's time for them to make their marriage official, things go from bad to worse as Alfie says he has to fly to Australia to see his brother Spencer as he's not coping. All this suggests that Alfie will be connected to the big mystery - in one big way. Alfie's brother Spencer's ex Kelly is Zoe's best pal - and when she left two decades ago, she was likely pregnant with his child - and Spencer had no idea. The fan theory is that Kelly has now died and Zoe will return with the now grown-up child of Kelly and Spencer - hence Spencer struggling.

'This is low-key harassment!' Chris Brown is accused of performing a 'sex show' with female concert goers as he grinds on them and KISSES one in shock scenes on tour after arrest
Chris Brown has been accused of 'harassing' female concert goers with a 'weird sex show' segment during his current tour which arrived in the UK on Sunday. During his show, the singer, 36, invites a female concert-goer up on stage as part of the performance, before grinding on them and even kissing one on the lips. Chris welcomes a member of the audience up on stage during his rendition of Take You Down, where they are laid out on a red velvet sofa throughout the song. The American star has been filmed thrusting against the women and even appeared to smooch one of them during a recent show in Hamburg, Germany, last week. During his first show in Manchester on Sunday night, Chris welcomed another woman up on stage who he was seen grinding against during the track. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Chris returned to the English city to perform, weeks after he was arrested there over an alleged nightclub bottle attack. Chris released on £5M bail and is due in court on Friday, but despite his legal woes he made a cheeky quip about his arrest during the latest stop of his Breezy Bowl XX tour at the Co-Op Live Arena. He told the crowd: 'I just want to tell you all, I love you all to death, I am so thankful that I could come out here tonight'. 'Thank you all for having me and supporting me and thank you to the jail, y'all was really nice!' he said while flashing a smile. Later in the gig, Chris asked a woman to join him on stage for the segment, where he was seen again gyrating against her in a sexual fashion. The move appears inspired by fellow rapper Usher, who introduced a track where he feeds cherries to female audience members in a sexually-charged exchange. Social media users have condemned Chris' behaviour and advised the controversial rapper to 'keep it clean' following his recent troubles. They also hit out at his fans for 'setting us back a few centuries' for supporting his behaviour. Sharing their thoughts on X, people said: 'Lol you b****s being down bad for abusers is setting us behind a few centuries'; 'I will never understand why anybody gives this rotten a******e attention'; 'It's such a bad idea to be doing this... he should have kept it clean. Next thing lawsuits'; ''Is this... Chris Brown!? Who in the WORLD is letting this man touch them!? Why!? What is happening????'; 'Is this a sex show or a concert plus kids go to his show @Ticketmaster you need to make all Chris Brown shows 18 plus from now on'; Is that Chris Brown? Y'all don't give a f*** about feminism or women. He is an abusive p**** 'Am I too woke if I said that this is lowkey harassment? Like I genuinely don't want him to do all that it feels so weird just sing and give me a hug idk'; 'If cancel culture is real why does Chris Brown keep popping up on my timeline I hate that MF for real.' Many drew comparison between Chris and pop star Sabrina Carpenter, as they questioned why she was coming under fire for a racy album cover when he was behaving like this. Sabrina announced her new album Man's Best Friend on Wednesday, but the cover art for the upcoming release sparked fierce criticism from fans. The album cover shows her on all fours while a person dressed in black slacks — whose face is not visible — pulls her blonde hair. She also posted a close-up image of a heart-shaped dog collar engraved with Man's Best Friend. The highly sexualised and provocative album art quickly drew backlash. While many accused Sabrina, for 'setting back feminism', others surmised that it was a playful attempt at Sabrina toying with her image, how people perceive her, and how she chooses to respond. Making comparisons between the two, some said: 'In a world where Sabrina Carpenter is criticised for her own self expression Chris Brown is selling out arenas there is no hope for women'; 'So this is what happens at Chris Brown's concert, but you still want me to believe Sabrina's album cover is the problem???'; So when he does this it's wild and cool but when Sabrina does a Juno position u guys start calling her a w****. 'A gazillion think pieces about how Sabrina Carpenter is 'setting women back' meanwhile Chris Brown is on a sold out tour, where his BIT is an abuser grinding on women on stage. Ok. 'If cancel culture is real why does Chris Brown keep popping up on my timeline I hate that MF for real.' The hitmaker was was charged with causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw during the alleged assault at the Tape club in Mayfair in February 2023 Shortly after Chris was released on remand from prison last month, he posted a story to Instagram to tell his 144million followers: 'From the cage to the stage!!!', adding the the name of his tour. His passport was held by lawyers and police until he needed it in an arrangement that will allow him to fulfil tour dates in Europe, the US and Canada, a court heard. The conditions of his bail mean that he must reside at an address in the UK and can only access his passport when he needed to travel for a tour date, Heidi Stonecliffe KC, prosecuting, said. Stonecliffe told Southwark Crown Court his passport would be held by the police until his international dates, then it would be collected by a solicitor from law firm Hickman & Rose, before being returned to Chris so he can travel to the US. 'The passport is to then be lodged with a US lawyer named Mr Matthew Cayman. We have checked his details and he does exist,' Ms Stonecliffe said. 'It will be held by Mr Cayman until August. Then Mr Brown travels to Canada. It will be held by Mr Cayman during his US tour then Mr Brown returns to the UK and his passport will then be held by a solicitor. 'What we then propose is that we have a further case management hearing on October 24.' Other bail conditions include not to attend the Tape nightclub or contact his co-accused, Dallas rapper Omolulu Akinlolu, 38, the complainant or any witnesses. Chris is claimed to have injured music producer Mr Diaw in an unprovoked attack when the singer and his entourage were at a club night called Dirty Martini. Before the latest hearing, Adele Kelly, deputy chief crown prosecutor for CPS London North, said: 'We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Chris Brown with one count of grievous bodily harm, contrary to section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. 'The alleged incident occurred in London on February 19, 2023. He will have his first court appearance on Friday, May 16 at Manchester Magistrates' Court. 'The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are active and that he has the right to a fair trial. 'It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.'
