Laura Hamilton revealed she was trying to be more of a ‘glass half full-person’ amid her divorce from her husband Alex Goward.
The 41-year-old TV star confessed that life after divorcing her spouse of 13 years was ‘tough’ but that she needed to stay ‘strong’ for their two children – daughter Tahlia, eight, and son Rocco, nine.
She admitted however she was keen to acknowledge her emotions and not be a ‘robot’ about her feelings.
Laura told Hello! magazine: ‘You say content, but I have moments when I feel this is tough, this is hard, this is not what I expected my life to be.
‘But I’m a glass half-full person and I have to be positive. I have to be strong. Am I making the best of the situation as I can right now? Yes, 100 per cent.
‘But I do get sad because things went the way they did. I might look like everything is fine all the time and that’s how things come across on social media but no I’d be a robot if I didn’t have those emotions.
