According to the 51-year-old retired mom, she had an ectopic pregnancy, which is a situation in which the fetus develops outside the uterus, typically in a fallopian tube.
Laura, a Canadian who moved from Florida to Qatar to be with Aladin on the debut season of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, says she is therefore no longer pregnant due to the complication.
Earlier this month, Laura announced on Instagram she had "a muffin in the oven." However, many 90 Day Fiance fans had remained skeptical of the alleged pregnancy given Laura's prior televised admission that it would very difficult for her to have another child at her age.
That criticism had continued when she conducted an Instagram Live session earlier this week in which some of Laura's followers directly criticized her for lying about being pregnant.
One person said something along the lines of, "What person would lie about being pregnant?!"
But Laura replied in her video, "Well, let me tell you something, sweetheart, I didn't lie. I had a tubal pregnancy, okay? And guess what? I am not in menopause. I am not even approaching menopause. My functions are very much working downstairs, okay?" Laura said.
"For those people who suddenly live in my vag-y-gy, that they can give such bold statements blows my mind! Because I know exactly what happened to me, and I had my cousin also with me up in Canada when all this was going down."

Laura continued, "So, people who are such know-it-alls about even my menopause cycle and so forth, it's just insane! Folks, unless you are my doctor, I am pretty sure you don't know what's happening."
Laura added that she appreciates the people who have supported her and are advising her to just ignore trolls and skeptics.

In addition to the Instagram Live video, Laura also apparently explained she had an ectopic pregnancy during a lengthy direct-message exchange with one of her Instagram followers, who in turn shared screenshots of the exchange online publicly.
After the follower asked Laura to come clean about her alleged pregnancy lie, saying it's easier to admit her alleged pregnancy was a hoax rather than perpetuate it, Laura fired back.
"Believe me its no lie i swear on my sons life! I very much had an ectopic pregnancy... I was so sick and my dr when i was in canada last month told me the blood work came back and i was pregnant," Laura said, referencing her beloved adult son, Liam.
"It is 100 percent truth. I am no where near menopause yet. And it really upset me to read this. I am no longer with a baby and it crushed my world. Because i lost everything in life all at once it seemed."
During the exchange, Laura also confirmed rumors that she and Aladin, a 29-year-old personal trainer, have broken up recently.

Laura went on to say, "And i [couldn't] even tell aladdin about the baby because he has me blocked. I wanted aladdin to see the post. I [wanted] him to know we almost made a baby... so close! I wanted him to reach out to me."
"Nobody knows how horrible Aladdin has been to me … you know everything I own that had meaning and value is in Qatar and he will not even allow me to get all my [valuables] from our apartment."

However, it wasn't just Laura's followers on social media who had accused Laura of lying about her pregnancy.
Not only did Leida Margaretha from the 90 Day Fiance franchise tell Laura on social media to "Stop F in LYINGGGG!!!!" but Laura's 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way co-star Deavan Clegg also appeared to slam Laura in an Instagram Stories posting on September 23.
"I wasn't going to speak out on this. But knowing what I do I need to speak up. It is never okay to lie about being pregnant and use it as a way to get an [abusive] persons attention," Deavan wrote, although she did not identify Laura by name in her post.
"I've experienced abuse and the best way to escape is to leave it and not bother with it. At that point you are enabling the abuse. I know the truth and I will leave it at that. I'm very saddened and disappointed to see all this."

Laura seemed to respond to Deavan's allegation in her Instagram Live video session.
"I had to come forward and say don't believe everything you read. So called other castmates who have an opinion on my life, who I don't even know or talk to, please also don't give them too much of your time," Laura said.
"My true friends are people who hold my hand during a difficult time, not look to get attention from me in a difficult situation."
Laura named 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way co-stars Evelin Villegas, Corey Rathgeber and Jenny Slatten in particular.
"[They] have shown me such true companionship, loyalty and friendship that's true. They have been here to hold my hand through a really dark time... They've held me up when I've been falling and I love these guys so much," Laura gushed.
But Deavan didn't back down, as she later took up arms on Instagram again after Laura posted her Instagram Live video.
"She wants screen shots of proof she lied!!? Oh I have them but I was respecting a particular cast member by not posting them. She flat out lied she straight said she would make it up to get the heat off other cast members and told cast members to go with it," Deavan commented.

"I know the time line and if it were true the timing doesn't make since and she would be pretty far along and been in critical condition in a hospital."
90 Day Fiance; The Other Way just recently featured the first two days of Laura and Aladin's traditional three-day wedding in Tunisia.
The pair were already legally wed, however, at the time of this celebration.
Laura and Aladin signed marriage paperwork just nine days after she arrived in Qatar.
Laura certainly doesn't seem to care about spoilers or nondisclosure agreements in light of the fact 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way has yet to wrap on TLC.
It may not come as a surprise to fans Laura and Aladin have split since she just claimed on social media last month Aladin had cheated on her and she called him "disgusting."
However, polygamy is legal in Qatar and men are apparently able to have up to four wives legally.
As shown in a recent episode of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way that aired last month, Aladin's boss told Laura that men aren't even required to tell their first wives whether they choose to marry again.

Aladin's boss said "it depends" on the guy and whether he wants to share his intentions or not, but Laura expressed how she'd never be okay with Aladin going behind her back and seeing another woman.
