A Love Island star looks completely unrecognizable in a throwback to her days before stardom.
The photo, shared to Instagram by the reality star’s father, shows her in a bright yellow dress with matching embellished sleeves – a far cry from the fashionable designer clothes they wear these days.
The beauty, who sports a different hair color these days, exudes confidence when she poses for the picture, and that same confidence is reflected in the plethora of sizzling snaps that now grace her Instagram page. But can you guess who it is?
Who is she? A Love Island star looks completely unrecognizable in a throwback to her days before stardom
Yes, it’s none other than Laura Anderson!
The former stewardess, 33, rose to fame in the fourth series of Love Island in 2018, where she worked with handsome hunks like Wes Anderson and Paul Knops.
And while Laura is known for her glossy blonde locks, she rocks a constructive look with a brunette bob in the retro snap.
The picture shows Laura, who also wore a gorgeous pair of white cowboy boots, in 2003 as she went to a dance competition with a pal.
Did you get it right? Yes, it’s none other than Laura Anderson!
Captioning the photo he shared while supporting Laura’s time at the villa, her father David wrote: “Here’s a picture of Laura, 2003, she really loved her dance competitions, she hated coming in second think she’s in to kill me for it.
“I don’t care, I’m so proud of them, thanks again everyone for their support.”
Fans of the stunner were quick to express shock at how far she looked from her Love Island look, with one noting, “Wow she looks so different.”

But the former stewardess wagged tongues as she seemingly hinted at a split in a series of social media posts.
Sharing a selfie with her dog Buddy to accompany her stories, Laura wrote: “I know I’ve been quiet here this week or so and not myself.
“I’m going through a very difficult time right now, I actually don’t think I’ve ever felt so stressed in my life.
“As we know, Instagram isn’t real life, but sharing negativity has never been something I enjoy doing. Anyway, my thought of the day for all of us is: never lose yourself or your voice.’
