Delighted Laura Yeates, 15, with her mother Carly (Picture: Sean Dempsey/Metro)

A kiss from Harry Styles would leave most teenagers speechless… but for one fan it was the opposite.

Laura Yeates had not spoken for six months after losing her voice to a double whammy of laryngitis and pharyngitis.

But the 15-year-old found her voice after her idol blew her a kiss.

She had been taken to see One Direction at Wembley Stadium by her mother Carly, after four trips to hospital and sessions with speech therapists failed to have an impact.

Laura said: ‘On the day of the concert I was slightly upset because I would not be able to enjoy the atmosphere as much as the rest of the crowd.

‘But we got so close to the stage and as Harry came over, he chucked water over us. I tried to scream, just to make him notice me, and when he blew a kiss in my direction, a scream came out.’

‘I said to my mum, “Mum listen”, and as I tried to carry on screaming, my voice was coming back more and more.’

Mrs Yeates said: ‘I was gobsmacked, I cried. Then she called her father and he cried.’

Now she is as keen on 1D as her daughter. She said: I wasn’t a big fan but I am now.

‘She went in not talking and she came out talking, and she hasn’t stopped.’

Laura, from Dagenham, east London, added: ‘No psychiatrist, no speech and language, no doctor or nurse could bring my voice back, but One Direction could.’
