Catching up with us over Zoom before their first photoshoot as a couple, Laura Anderson and Dane Bowers couldn’t be more smitten.
Laura, the 32-year-old former air hostess turned reality star, has decided to give her former boyfriend, Another Level singer Dane, a second chance after dumping him in 2018, when she found out he’d been cheating on her.
Shortly after having her heartbroken, Laura found fame on Love Island and Dane soon realised he’d made a mistake in letting her go.
But now living together in Dubai, with her adorable pooch Buddy, they tell us this time it’s for keeps.
“We’re talking about marriage and babies and we’d like to do that soon,” Dane, 41, says. “This is it. This is proper. This is The One.”
Laura started talking to Dane again in January when she realised they were both set to appear on the new series of MTV’s Ex On The Beach. Although she had reservations about taking him back, she’s certainly seen a change in her man this time around, telling us he makes her feel she’s “a priority”. “We’d had sex once after getting back together and he was like, ‘I love you’,” she says.
Dane, who admits he had to do a bit of grovelling to regain her trust, adds, “We’re under no illusions that there are going to be disagreements, but we’re just a bit better at dealing with them now.”
Here, the stunning couple, who look gorgeous at our exclusive shoot at the lavish FIVE Jumeirah Village hotel, open up about making a life together, having children and why they turned down the chance to appear on Ex On The Beach so they could be together…
Hi guys, you seem so happy! How did you get back together?
