Adam, a fitness coach, first rose to fame in 2018 when he appeared on Love Island UK's fourth season, instantly becoming known as one of the show's biggest bad boys.
After the series, he dated co-star Zara McDermott for eight months.
He was then linked to celebrities including Lisa Rinna's model daughter Delilah Hamlin and TOWIE star Demi Sims.
He returned to Love Island in 2022 and remained coupled up with paramedic Paige Thorne throughout the series. They broke up four months after the show ended, after a video emerged of him cuddling a mystery woman online.
Adam and Laura met via Instagram, after he had watched her present UK coverage for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
"I'd followed her on Instagram because I'd seen a Lionesses game or something like that and then I DMed her because she put, like, a funny meme on her Story," he shared on the Getting Lippy Gossip Show.
He said it took "months and months" for him to 'shoot his shot', but he knew very early on that it was serious.
"I'm protective, whether it's Laura, or my family, my friends. I want to get married. I want to have kids as well. I've always thought, what type of person will I be? How can I protect my kids?" he said.

Congrats to the parents-to-be!
