Laura, 35, said Clark slid into her DMs three years ago but she ignored it at the time - and only decided to reply this year.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Laura said: “I didn’t make it public for a little bit, but we’ve been together for a little bit. It’s nice, it’s chilled, no drama, just simple. A good Scottish boy, I can’t complain."
She then revealed how she met her new man, saying: “It’s not very romantic, he messaged me online and I saw it about three years later and replied and here we are.”
Laura admitted Clark is different to her other exes and guys she’s previously dated – saying she’s in it for the long-haul.
