LAURA Anderson today posed in a bikini after her holiday mugging nightmare that left her too scared to leave her hotel room.
The blonde beauty, 31, returned to social media following her ordeal in Barcelona.
The Love Island star put on a brave face and posed for a sexy snap for her fans.
Looking senstastional, she wore the blue plunging two piece which showcased her incredible figure.
She stood with her head titled slightly back, and was in front of a backdrop of an idylic ocean.
Later she posted a picture of her out to dinner, which she captioned: “My 2 favourite things- Wine & Pasta”
Laura is in the Spanish coastal town for a post-lockdown getaway with her new boyfriend Tom Brazier when the attack happened.
After enjoying a delicious seafood dinner, the pair went for a stroll to get some photos of the famous city.
But she had a “gut feeling” that two men were watching them.
After hailing a taxi to head back to the hotel, one of the men attacked Tom – a former bodybuilder – from behind and tried to get his expensive watch off him.
But some quick thinking from Laura, including loud swearing and whack to the shoulder, was able to scare the thieves off.
She opened up about the terrifying experience on her Instagram stories.
Laura said: “Hey guys so obviously, you know I am in Barcelona but last night was really horrible. Me and Tom went for dinner then decided to walk a little bit, try get a photo and basically got mugged.
“Nothing like this has ever happened to me before even when I worked for Emirates, travelling myself and stuff and Tom is pretty big.
“You know when you’ve just got a gut feeling? These two guys were just watching us and then I kept saying to Tom and he was like ‘it’s fine it’s fine’.”
She said: “So I just ran round the back of the cab and was like ‘F*** off!’ and whacked him on the shoulder with my phone which he could have taken and they scuffled off and it was just horrible and Tom was like get back in the car and we drove off.
“I didn’t know where his friend was, I didn’t know if he was gonna come from behind me or if he had any weapons, you just don’t know – just for a watch!”
Laura warned fans to be careful when they travel and revealed a someone spiked her friend’s drink in Barcelona on the same night.
“So I just wanted to say if anyone goes to Barcelona or anywhere in Europe, the pickpockets are just rife but to be actually physically -Tom doesn’t think he was attacked because he’s very brave but the guy did attack him and yeah and I think we both reacted pretty well and it was fine,” she told fans.
Laura starred in the 2018 series of Love Island and went public with her relationship with the fitness trainer in May.
According to Tom’s online accounts, the fitness guru has been a personal trainer since 2004 and has a WBFF’s Coach of the Year title under his belt.
It’s unsure how long he and Laura have been dating, but it seems it may make her change her mind about leaving London.
The TV star recently admitted that she wanted to move back to Scotland because she felt lonely.
