Who is Laura Tott and how old is she?

Laura is 25 years old and comes from Staines, Surrey.

She worked as a waitress and barmaid for years before doing so in front of the camera.

She was briefly a member of the Royal Navy, with HMS Raleigh in Cornwall, and travelled the world extensively before signing up for First Dates.

Having decided she did not want to go to university she describes herself as a "graduate of the University of Life", previously studying at Strode's College, in Egham, Surrey.

The First Dates star completed her training to become a fully registered paramedic competing her first shift in August 2019 alongside her role on Channel 4's reality show.

Is Laura still a waitress on First Dates?

Yes, Laura is still one of four waiters/waitresses in the First Dates restaurant.

She and fellow waitress CiCi Coleman have a great on-screen chemistry and are often seen messing around, much to maitre d’ Fred Sirieix's annoyance.

First Dates first aired in June 2013 and the staff including Laura do not work full time, just when the series is being filmed.

There was also a celebrity spin-off for stand up to cancer including celebrities like Ulrika Johnson and Jo Wood.

Has Laura Tott got a boyfriend?

Laura is very much loved up with her hunky boyfriend - who she keeps away from the media spotlight.

The stunning waitress has seen herself the object of some unwanted desire in the First Dates restaurant, most memorably by playboy Ben - who flirted with Laura while his date Daisy was in the toilet.

Is Laura Tott on social media?

Laura can be reached on her Instagram handle here.

She can also be reached on her twitter here.

Unfortunately whilst working on the front line in her job as paramedic she has fallen ill with the coronovirus and has been keeping fans up to date on her social media platforms and asking them to swipe on her photos to see a daily list of symptoms.

"List of my symptoms. Different to the classic cough & fever. Wanna spread awareness of the variety of symptoms."

Adding, "The more awareness the more chance we have of beating this (Virus emoji) Not everyone that catches this dies, I know it's worrying but remember how many people have survived this."
