Laura Anderson has proved that first impressions aren’t everything, as Love Island fans have changed their mind about her.
The 29-year-old got off to a rocky start on the show, as viewers accused her of lying about her age, and being a ‘goldigger’.
However, it looks like Laura has turned things around as she won serious praise for the way she confronted Adam Collard on last night’s episode.
After Rosie Williams recoupled with Adam, despite the fact that he had been flirting with newcomer Megan Barton Hanson, Laura thought Adam got off too easy – so she decided to call him out over his treatment of the girls.

Confronting Adam in the garden, Laura said, “I just want you to realise, with Kendall as well as Rosie now, they are both really good girls, they really liked you, obviously they wouldn’t pine after you in that way and forgive you if they didn’t.”
“I just want you to have a bit of a kick up the a**e. It’s fine if you decide then that you don’t like Rosie, you don’t have to like everyone but it’s just these girls have feelings as well and the way that you’ve acted is just stupid and you don’t need to be like that.
“You don’t want to be with someone who is insecure, you’ve already said that, but your actions are making girls insecure. Just take some responsibility.”
Viewers were quick to praise Laura for sticking up for the girls in there, and admitted that they may have been wrong about her.
I honestly didn’t think I would like Laura at the start but she’s so real, unproblematic and speaks for all girls out there #loveisland

Went from thinking Laura was a golddigger to not giving the slightest fuck if she is a golddigger because she is constantly doing the Lord’s work by calling out the asshole boys on their misogynistic bullshit! #LoveIsland pic.twitter.com/yXvrfn0T8y
