Hello all
My very first post. I used to love Laura but when she did Strictly something about the was she carried herself didn’t sit right with me and I took a turn. I always remember Marian Keyes on Twitter saying she had the same feeling about her ( though I think she’s been on her podcast)
It’s been interesting to watch Laura since. Her ego is just outgrowing her very mediocre personality and presenting skills. Laura has little more than her looks to draw on. I’d love to know where she sees herself down the line ones she’s deemed to old for all the fluff shows she presents. I can’t see a chat show or any current affairs type programme in her future.
I think if she'd been on Strictly another year with a weaker line up, she may have made more of an impact, but 2016 had quite a few names and I guess no one would have predicted Ed Balls stealing everyone's thunder.
It was clear her and Giovanni didn't get on, but she seemed to have a massive chip on her shoulder about it all. I know she said she was annoyed that they were trying to push the whole romance angle with her and Giovanni, which is fair enough, but I don't think they were really? It just seemed she couldn't quite deal with the fact she faded into the background a bit and wasn't a memorable Strictly contestant
I didn't really have much of an opinion on her until then, but I agree, something about the way she spun her whole Strictly experience didn't sit right with me
