Love Island’s Laura Anderson has broken her silence in the wake of reports she is on the verge of breaking up with Paul Knops after they were pictured arguing in the street.

The reality TV couple were spotted rowing outside The Cuckoo Club in Mayfair, London, during the early hours of Sunday morning before they left in separate cars.

But Anderson has insisted the altercation was a “little bicker” and that they were naïve to fight knowing they are in the public eye.

“To answer any speculation – Paul and I have NOT broken up,” she posted on Instagram. “We had a little bicker like any normal couple.

“Being in the public eye proves privacy is difficult, especially at a bus stop #forgiveournaivety.”

It’s not the first time the couple have been forced to dispel rumours of a split. Fans feared the worst after they failed to post any pictures together in the days after the Love Island reunion show.

They later posted a video of themselves on the way to a Heat Radio appearance, with Anderson referring to her man as a “stud muffin”.

Anderson and Knops finished second to Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham on this year’s Love Island.

The champions recently revealed they have set up home together after eight weeks in the Mallorcan villa.

The loved up couple, who have also confirmed marriage is on the cards, moved into a flat in Canary Wharf.

Dyer posted a selfie on Instagram of the pair standing on their balcony. She captioned the shot with two heat emojis and the words: “Finally moving into a new home.”

The move comes days after Fincham met Dyer’s family for the first time, including her hard man dad Danny.
