Laura Woods’ fianc\u00e9 has posted a positive health update after the football presenter collapsed on TV. <\/p>\n

The 38-year-old was alongside Ian Wright and former England defender Anita Asante when she fell and had to be caught by the two pundits.<\/p>\n

ITV announced on air afterwards that Woods had been “taken ill” and replaced by presenter Katie Shanahan, who was on duty for pitch-side coverage at St Mary\u2019s Stadium in Southampton.<\/p>\n

Her partner, Adam Collard, has now released a statement confirming the 38-year-old is okay.<\/p>\n

He wrote to concerned fans on his X account: \u201cLaura is all ok and with the right people. <\/p>\n

“Thank you for all of your kind messages.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woods and reality TV star and fitness trainer Collard, 30, have been together since 2023.<\/p>\n

The pair welcomed their first child in January, a baby boy named Leo.<\/p>\n
