Speaking to in 2018, Laura spoke out to raise awareness and help the premature baby charity Bliss.
She said: ‘’When babies are born prematurely, their lungs haven’t finished developing.
‘’She [Charlotte] was on oxygen nearly the whole three months that she was in hospital, so now she is much more likely to get colds – and if she does, it could make her really ill.’’
In 2018, after making a healthy recovery, baby Charlotte appeared alongside her mother on GMB.
