Adam Collard has opened up about his new romance with ITV Sports presenter, Laura Woods, admitting that he feels as though he's 'living the dream'.
The former Love Island and Celebs Go Dating star, 27, has gained quite the reputation as a ladies man in recent years, but it appears as though Laura, 36 has been the woman to steal his heart as the new loved-up couple went Instagram official earlier this week.
Former two-time Love Island star Adam was recently linked to Lottie Moss after the pair both appeared on the most recent series of Celebs Go Dating, with avid fans of the show hoping that their connection had lasted after filming finished. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Adam has moved on from Lottie with Laura – and he appears to be happier than ever.
Newcastle native Adam sent his followers wild as he posted a loved-up snap of the pair in bed on his Instagram Story with the cheeky caption: “Alright x”. Adam and Laura could be seen locking hands, with Laura kissing Adam on the cheek.
If that wasn't enough, Adam got a romantic new tattoo as he attended a special event at London's Sixty Ink in collaboration with Tinder and their Ink Twice campaign on Wednesday evening, joining the likes of Geordie Shore's Nathan Henry and MIC’s Inga Valentiner, who also got new tattoos at the exciting event.

Adam showed no hint of pain as he underwent the procedure which was administered by tattoo artist of Sixty Ink, Claudio Traina.
While Adam previously had his ex Zara McDermott's initials inked on his skin, the star has since thought about having some tattoos removed. Attending the Ink Twice event at Sixty Ink, which offers singles a free tattoo cover up of ink that reminds them of an ex-flame, Adam decided to add another tattoo dedicated to his new love.
Speaking to The Mirror at the event, Adam opened up on his new relationship with Laura. "It's going great, you know. She's amazing and we are having a lot of fun. It feels like I'm living the dream."
The Love Island star and the football pundit have been spotted out together a number of times in recent weeks as fans speculated on whether or not Adam and Laura were an item. Taking to Instagram on Monday Adam put the rumours to bed and confirmed their romance as he posted a loved-up sweet picture of Laura planting a kiss on his cheek as the pair look completely smitten with one another.
Adam and Laura first sparked dating rumours last month when they were spotted out together. Adam, who has been accused of breaking hearts and cheating on exes in the past – was spotted with 36-year-old football pundit Laura in a pub in County Durham at the weekend. The pair are said to have been close with conversation looking intimate as they knocked back drinks together.
The Newcastle native has been linked to model Lottie Moss, reality star Zara McDermott and OnlyFans star Demi Sims in the past. While Laura was previously linked to England rugby player Alex Corbisiero – who she dated for eight years until they split this year.
