Is Adam Collard still with Laura Woods?

Multiple reports in 2025 and 2026 refer to Adam Collard as Laura Woods’ fiancé. The Sun’s June 2026 article specifically describes him as her fiancé. No split announcement has been made as of the latest available reports.

What the Sun report says

A Sun article from June 2026 quotes Laura Woods calling Adam the person who ‘rescued her in lots of ways’ and refers to him as her fiancé. This indicates the couple was still together as of that date.

What is confirmed about their engagement

The couple became engaged in September 2024 after a proposal in Cornwall, according to GB News. The engagement has not been publicly rescinded.

What still needs confirmation

No official statement from the couple themselves has been released confirming or denying their current relationship status. The available reports from tabloids and news outlets provide the only evidence of their continued relationship.

How did Laura Woods meet Adam Collard?

The public record does not contain a confirmed account of how Laura Woods and Adam Collard first met. Neither the couple nor reliable news sources have provided a verifiable story of their initial meeting. This remains a gap in the public narrative.

The gap in the public record

No major news outlet or interview has detailed how or when the pair first connected. The absence of this information means any claim about their meeting remains speculative.

What their public profiles tell us

Laura Woods is a sports presenter and broadcaster, while Adam Collard is a reality TV personality and former Love Island contestant. Both are public figures with overlapping social circles, but no documented meeting point exists.

The difference between reporting and rumor

Some online sources may speculate about a meeting via mutual friends or events, but no confirmed report supports these claims. The article must state that this information is not yet publicly available.

The implication: Without a confirmed meeting story, the public record on this point remains incomplete, reinforcing the need for source-based reporting.

Who did Adam Collard lose a baby with?

Public reporting connects Adam Collard to a miscarriage disclosure involving his fiancée Laura Woods. The Independent’s topic page on Adam Collard includes a story that he opened up about Laura Woods’ miscarriage. This makes Laura Woods the person linked to the baby-loss question in the provided search data.

The Independent report

The Independent’s coverage frames the disclosure as Adam Collard speaking about the couple’s experience. The report uses empathetic language and does not specify the timing or other details beyond the confirmation of the loss.

How the disclosure was framed

The report presents Adam Collard’s comments as a personal revelation about their relationship. It does not attribute the miscarriage to any other individual or relationship.

What Adam has said about the loss

Beyond the disclosure reported by The Independent, no additional details or public statements from Adam Collard about the miscarriage are available in the provided research notes.

Is Adam Collard still with Zara?

Current public reporting describes Adam Collard as Laura Woods’ fiancé. No reliable source indicates he is still in a relationship with Zara McDermott, his partner from Love Island. The question likely originates from his Love Island-era relationship.

Who is Zara?

Zara McDermott is a reality TV personality who appeared on Love Island and later on Made in Chelsea. She was in a relationship with Adam Collard after meeting on the show in 2018.

The Love Island connection

Adam Collard and Zara McDermott met during Love Island series 4 in 2018. Their relationship ended after the show, and they have since moved on to separate relationships.

Where Adam is now

All recent news reports, including those from The Sun, The Independent, and RTÉ, describe Adam Collard as Laura Woods’ fiancé. This confirms he is not currently with Zara.

Who is the father of Laura Woods’ baby?

The top search results identify Adam Collard as Laura Woods’ fiancé but do not explicitly state that he is the father of her baby. The paternity of Laura Woods’ child is not directly confirmed by any reliable source in the provided research notes. This question remains a public search gap.

What the search data reveals

Multiple articles from 2024 and 2025 confirm that Laura Woods and Adam Collard were expecting a child together, with coverage naming their son Leo Ernie Collard. However, no article explicitly states “Adam Collard is the father” in a direct, standalone statement that would satisfy a strict paternity claim.

What the fiancé label does and doesn’t prove

Being described as a fiancé strongly implies a shared household and family, but it is not a legal or medical confirmation of paternity. The fiancé label does not, on its own, prove biological parenthood.

Source-checking the paternity claim

A direct paternity claim would require a statement such as “Adam Collard is the father of Laura Woods’ child” from a reliable source. The provided research notes do not contain such a statement. The article must note this as an unverified question rather than a confirmed fact.

The pattern: The timeline shows a rapid progression from public relationship to engagement, parenthood, and a second pregnancy, but also includes a legal controversy involving Adam’s father.

Mini-summary: Adam Collard and Laura Woods’ relationship timeline is well-documented through multiple news sources. The confirmed milestones include their October 2023 public relationship, July 2024 pregnancy announcement, September 2024 engagement, January 2025 birth of their son Leo, and May 2026 second pregnancy announcement. The legal case involving Collard’s father remains an unverified allegation.

What remains unverified: The father-related controversy

Reports from August 2026 allege that Adam Collard’s father, William “Billy” Collard, a millionaire property developer, faced an assault-by-beating trial over an alleged incident involving Adam. The Sun uses the word “allegedly” in its coverage, indicating these are claims rather than proven facts. Laura Woods is reported to have supported Adam at court ahead of the trial.

The alleged attack

According to the Daily Mail, William Collard is facing an assault-by-beating trial. The reports do not provide verdicts or conclusive evidence of the alleged attack.

Laura Woods’ support

A June 2026 report from The Sun said Laura Woods referred to Adam Collard as having “rescued her in lots of ways.” The August 2026 Daily Mail article says she supported him at court.

Separating confirmed from reported

These reports are attributed to tabloid sources (Daily Mail, The Sun) with medium confidence. No court verdict or official statement from the family is included in the research notes, so this remains a reported claim rather than a confirmed fact.
