Earlier this year Laura had posted her delight at being chosen for winter Love Island to replace Caroline whilst also sharing how kind Caroline had been about it;
“I want to thank ITV for trusting me at the helm of this huge show. I wish it was in better circumstances; Caroline is a brilliant host and friend.
“We’ve spoken a lot in the last few days since she stepped down. She has been very kind to me and strongly pushed me for this role. I’ve watched her host every series and know I have big boots to fill. I will try and do it justice.”
Our thoughts go out to her family and friends at this time.
