The blonde beauty looked great with a red lip and a huge smile on her face.
In the caption to the glam snap, Laura penned: “Last week I mentioned I was attending a very special event on Thursday.
“That event was the @wellchild awards which is a charity that holds a very special place in my heart and is also a charity that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are patrons of.”
Praising her celeb pal Gaby she added: “With the sad news that broke on Thursday evening, understandably the event was cancelled and @gabyroslin, who delivered the news to us handled it amazingly. I will never forget it.”
Laura added that she and a pal she went to the event with both “bizarrely” wore black before they knew what was to happen.
Speaking about the charity of the event that was cancelled soon after the Queen passed away, Laura said: “The WellChild Awards celebrate the inspirational qualities of the UK’s seriously ill children and young people, along with those who go that extra mile to make a difference to their lives.
I want to congratulate everyone who won and wasn’t able to collect their award. It is always an emotional evening, but on Thursday it was an emotional evening for a very different reason.”
Fans of the Channel 4 favourite were quick to comment on the glam snap and touching caption, with many writing sweet messages.

Soon after Laura found out about the death of the late monarch she posted a touching tribute online where she uploaded a snap of the Queen in her youth, writing: “Rest in Peace Your Majesty – A Truly Remarkable Lady.”
