HOLLYOAKS’ Gary Lucy has revealed the reason he split with his pregnant Love Island star ex Laura Anderson.
Gary, 41, broke his silence over his shock split in an exclusive interview with The Sun, declaring: “I’ll never stop loving her.”

The Hollyoaks and former EastEnders actor said he was dumped by reality TV beauty Laura, 33, a fortnight ago following a series of rows and his refusal to move to her native Scotland.
Gary, who was born and lives in Essex, said: “Laura did want me to move but I have my responsibilities here.
“I have four kids and all the things that go along with that so it’s very difficult, if not impossible, to uproot at this time.
“Having gone through a divorce, my children need me and living such a long way from them just would not be possible.
“I wish I could break myself in half. I would if I could.”
Despite their split pain, Gary has been supporting Laura through her pregnancy.
He went to Glasgow last weekend, he says, to see the first scan of his unborn child who he already refers to as “Baby Bear”.
And Gary said he desperately wants to get back with Laura.

He revealed: “Looking for love elsewhere isn’t on the radar.”
He added: “We can’t get things to work at this time, but who knows what the future holds?
“I think the world of her. She’s carrying my child and I love her even more than I did before because of who she is and what she is doing.
“It’s incredible. She’s doing a wonderful job.
“I would have loved things to have worked out.
“But we’re doing our best to do things right and be responsible, loving co-parents going forward.
“The baby is our number one priority. I’d love a football team of kids and I’m almost there.
“I can’t wait to meet the new bundle of joy.”
The former Footballers’ Wives actor met Laura, 33, on E4’s Celebs Go Dating in October last year and says he was smitten the moment he clapped eyes on her.
Divorced Gary — who has two sons and two daughters with his former wife, Natasha — and Scot Laura got together and she fell pregnant within a few months.
The Love Island star revealed last week she was expecting, before news of their split emerged — posting a loving montage of videos from their first Christmas along with her 12-week baby scan.
