Laura Whitmore discusses her ideal man with HELLO!

During a week which saw her linked to Leonardo DiCaprio at a BAFTA afterparty – of which she refuses to comment, saying only: "Everyone was just having fun – there was a lot of dancing,", Laura says she knows exactly what she wants when it comes to finding her ideal man.

"Someone who can make me laugh and with whom I can have fun," she tells HELLO! "I love banter so someone who can keep me on my toes. I don’t mind having a few arguments.

"I’m not interested in big, over-the-top gestures but little things, like I’ll keep the ticket stubs from a gig I was at, or a T-shirt."

And Laura, who is hosting a surprise leap-year proposal from a woman to her boyfriend during an advert break on ITV later this month, said she would pop the question if the situation presented itself.

"It depends," she revealed. "If he wasn’t asking and I wanted to get married, I’d be like, ‘Hey, let’s do this.’ I don’t see why not in this day and age – girl power and all that."
