In the midst of all the “nepo baby” drama, we were shocked to learn that Laura Whitmore has a very famous father.
And so was she!
Laura has carved out a name for herself on screen as a presenter after getting her start in MTV back in 2008.
So when she was called Bono’s daughter by a British publication Laura couldn’t help but laugh it off.
This will especially be a big shock for my mam 😂 https://t.co/Bd7KzWQrXw

The publication shared a picture of Laura with Eve Hewson, who is in fact Bono’s daughter, wrongly calling Laura, Jordan.
“@thewhitmore am I going crazy or is this you in the photo?? @MailOnline seem to think you’re one of Bono’s kids!” one fan wrote.
To which Laura responded: “This will especially be a big shock for my mam.”
Her comments were full of people teasing her including Dara Ó Briain who wrote: “Hmm. He was living in the Martello tower near the harbour for a while…”
Eve has yet to comment on her new family member. Although they clearly get on like a house on fire.
It comes after Laura explained why she chose to step down from her Love Island presenting duties.
She admitted that it was challenging for her to not engage with contestants when they needed her.
Speaking to Psychologies magazine, Laura said: “There was only so much I can do as a host – I couldn’t support them or not support them. I couldn’t say anything.
“So you kind of have to go quiet, and that was hard for me because I like to be able to have those conversations. If I could [have done] things the way I wanted to, I’d probably still be doing it.”
