Pregnant Love Island star Laura Anderson says the IVF treatment she underwent with ex Dane Bowers "wasn't for her".
Laura, 33, and Dane, 43, dated for five years and were trying for a baby before they split last year, with Laura then dating her Celebs Go Dating co-star Gary Lucy, 33.
News of the Laura and Gary's split emerged shortly after she announced earlier this month that they are expecting a baby together.
The influencer had been candid in the past about her dreams of becoming a mum, and in an Instagram Q&A with fans, she was asked: "How did you get pregnant naturally if you was previously going through ivf?" [sic]
The TV star responded in a video: "The IVF situation previously wasn't for me, I just didn't say that at the time."
Laura previously told Vicky Pattison on her The Secret To podcast that she didn't want to undergo IVF, she later revealed that she and Dane had started receiving fertility treatment.
Laura said she had been struggling to fall pregnant after spending years on the pill.
She told Vicky on the podcast: "We started trying really quickly. I've been on the pill for years - just so long I was on the pill - and I thought 'do you know what, this probably is not that good for my body'. And I was just like 'should I just come off it and we won't 100% try'.
"But I got the app so I tracked when I'd be ovulating. And he was like 'if you're going to come off the pill we may as well track it and do it properly'. And I was like 'alright, ok'. He's like, 'it will probably take ages'."
Following their split, Laura broke down in tears while appearing on Celebs Go Dating as she spoke about her and Dane trying for a child.
Explaining the sad situation on the E4 series back in November, Laura grabbed a tissue as she spoke about the severity of her split from the singer.
"I think my most recent break-up was the biggest in my life because it was so serious," she said, breaking down in tears.
"I thought that he was The one. We were trying for a baby."
During Laura's Q&A she also said there was no possibility of herself and Hollyoaks actor Gary getting back together.
She was asked: "Is there any chance that you and Gary can get back together?" The star simply replied: "No."
Elsewhere in the Q&A, Laura addressed her relationship with Gary's ex-wife Natasha Gray.
One fan asked: "Will Gary's children be part of the baby's life?" To which Laura replied: "1 million percent me and Gary's ex-wife Natasha have already spoken about this and we're very excited for them to be half-brother and sister."
The Hollyoaks star, who is also known for playing Kyle Pascoe in Footballers Wives, shares four children with his ex-wife.
