And despite being praised for her impressive yoga moves by her 1.4m followers, one vile troll 'skinny-shamed' the star and even cruelly said: 'Get some curves on you love'.
They cruelly wrote: 'You look so skinny, and not in a healthy way. Almost bulimic or anorexic. I say this with love, but get some curves on you girl. Doesnt harm to have abit of wobble' followed by a heart emoji.
To which a shocked Laura replied back with: 'Wow.'

Laura Anderson took to Instagram to show off her yoga skills.
And, while we were incredibly impressed with the Love Island star's dancer pose, we couldn't help but notice her chic sportswear.
Practical yet sexy, Laura's look comprised a sports bra and leggings by FIO, in a gorgeous khaki shade.
We are especially fond of these leggings as they could be worn in or out of the gym. Plus, thanks to their high waist and second skin fit, they’ll flatter every figure.

Vile: And despite being praised for her impressive yoga moves by her 1.4m followers, one vile troll 'skinny-shamed' the star and even cruelly said: 'Get some curves on you love'
One person said: 'Your words are harmful. She is naturally skinny, and women come in all shapes and sizes. Stop commenting on other people's bodies it is not OK.'
While a different follower put: 'Why do you feel the need to pass judgment on another women’s body.
'Honestly we as women are all different and all perfect in our own way and no one should ever feel the need to drag another women down, there are enough men out there doing that for us!
'#supportwomen #bekind #perfectthewayweare. You look fantastic Laura,fit, healthy and happy.'
While a different fan added: '@lauraanderson1x I personally think she looks absolutely stunning! But the most important thing, is HAPPY!!!! She look so Happy and that what matters most.'
Support: The Scottish reality star's 1.4m followers were also quick to hit back at the troll and support Laura with one person saying: 'Your words are harmful'
Earlier this year, Laura, who propelled to fame on the 2018 series of Love Island as a 29-year-old air hostess, spoke about the trolling she has received since the show.
The reality star, who was one of the oldest singletons on the series, said she has also been trolled relentlessly about her age.
In an interview with The Sun, the television personality revealed the fickle side of fame and detailed how she's lost out on jobs to her peers due to being 'past it'.
Speaking about the hate she gets regarding her age, Laura said: 'I get called a "wrinkly, washed-up has-been" or they'll say, "You don’t look a day over 50", tell me I'm "past it" or ask, "Why are you in a club? Go home, Grandma".

'If I'm pictured with a guy, they’ll say I look like I could be his mum. There is this obsession with age and so much judgment over a woman’s appearance, which men simply don’t get.'
Laura continued: 'I just hadn't experienced ageism before. But on the island it became very apparent that I was the older girl.'
During her stint on the ITV2 show, the Scottish beauty said she was horrified when her father had to get her birth certificate to prove she wasn't lying about her age.

And following her exit, Laura said she was constantly compared to her female co-stars who 'would definitely get jobs over me because they were younger'.
Laura said she was dropped from a high fashion brand campaign, which many Love Islanders go on to work with, because her 'age didn't fit the demographic' and because she 'wouldn't get any younger' the retailer couldn't commit to working with her.
The reality star admitted the feedback, delivered by her agent, made her feel 'ashamed of my appearance and years on this planet'.
Only recently, Laura moved into a new home with her boyfriend Dane Bowers in Dubai after the couple rekindled their romance.
