A Place In The Sun's Laura Hamilton shaken after car crash in Spain
A Place In The Sun star Laura Hamilton has revealed she was caught up in a car crash in Spain earlier this week.
The TV presenter was filming the Channel 4 property show when the crash happened, but said luckily “no one was hurt”.
In a lengthy post on Instagram, Laura told her 179,000 followers she didn’t want to “over dramatise” the situation as it was a “minor incident”.
But the 40-year-old, who shares children Rocco, nine, and Tahlia, seven, with ex-husband Alex Goward, shared it had still left her shaken.
Alongside a reel of her latest time in Spain with the A Place In The Sun crew, she wrote: “Happiness... When you love people. When you love travel. When you love property. When you love your job! I am always grateful.”

Laura then continued: “But let’s be honest life isn’t always rosy, even if it seems so.
“The start of this week actually got off to a pretty s****y start. Unfortunately (and for the first time ever abroad) I had a car accident as I was on the way to our first property.
“Before anything is over dramatised, it was a minor incident and more importantly no one was hurt. However, I still felt pretty rubbish.”
Ever the professional, the property expert said: “I think it’s important in life to always focus on the positive.
“Whist I felt rubbish, I had to ensure my house hunters had the best time with me and lots of fun whilst we looked for their dream holiday home.”
She added: “The search isn’t over yet but I think it’s been a successful one so far and we have certainly had a lot of laughs.
“Thank you as always to the team on the road and back in Blighty that make all this possible!”

Giving fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse of filming on the show, Laura joked she had her house hunters mucking in on set.
In a clip uploaded to her Instagram stories, she is heard saying: “Up a bit Chris, down a bit Chris.”
Explaining what she is doing, Laura told fans: “I’m putting my house hunters to good use this week. I’m making him do the reflector, bounce some light on me.”
House hunter Chris then jokes: “Laura, stop messing about. I didn’t sign up for this!”
Viewers will have to tune in to later in the year to see if couple Chris and Jill found their dream home.
