Laura said she was using Raya, an exclusive dating app for famous singles, which was a sore point for podcast host Jana who keeps getting rejected from the app.
The guest added that she has dated younger men in the past, which is a popular trend for women in their forties, but these men have their challenges too.
'They have been really excited for it in the beginning,' she said.

'My last relationship was with a younger guy but then the cracks started to show several months with the experience,' she added.
Laura went on to mention that some single men label a woman's child a 'S.O.C.K' meaning 'some other c**t's kid'.
The former beauty queen concluded by saying that lockdown with a four-year-old child has been like 'survival mode' for her.
