Why Laguna Beach’s Lo Bosworth Was Absent From Reunion Premiere

by

Lo Bosworth is coming clean after missing a major event.

The former star of Laguna Beach explained she couldn’t join her old castmates on the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of The Reunion: Laguna Beach on March 26th because she had a medical procedure scheduled that made travel impossible.

She explained in a TikTok video posted on March 27th that she wasn’t able to attend the Laguna press day, but it wasn’t because she didn’t want to. She recently had a baby and needs to have a surgical procedure next week to remove some placental tissue that was unintentionally left inside her after the delivery.

The new mother, who welcomed her daughter Nelle with her husband Domenic “Dom” Natale in January, couldn’t attend the event in person but still showed support for her high school classmates. She did so by coordinating her outfit with their red carpet color scheme from home in New York City.

Lo, 39, shared a post explaining she wore a black and white outfit at home to show her support, adding a message of love from the East Coast.

Even though Lo wasn’t there, Lauren Conrad, Kristin Cavallari, Stephen Colletti, and others came together on the red carpet to celebrate the upcoming look back at the show, which will be available on The Roku Channel starting April 10th. Lauren and Kristin, who famously clashed on the original MTV series over Stephen, shared that filming the retrospective gave them a chance to move past their teenage rivalry after more than twenty years.

At the premiere, Lauren, 40, shared with TopMob News that she believes it’s crucial for women to support one another. She explained that the reunion involved openly discussing past mistakes and how they treated each other, highlighting how much both individuals have grown and changed since then.

Likewise, Kristin, 39, appreciated seeing her one-time rival through a more mature lens.

She shared with TopMob that simply spending an hour talking with Lauren, just the two of them, helped her truly connect with her as an adult. She expressed a lot of respect for Lauren and genuinely enjoys her company, adding with a touch of surprise, ‘It’s been really nice, hasn’t it?’

It’s pretty funny that Lisa Love from Teen Vogue told Lauren Conrad she’d forever be known as the girl who skipped the Paris trip – a line originally used by Vogue‘s Anna Wintour, as discovered in a 2019 look back at The Hills.

Over a decade after that controversial choice and her breakup with Jason Wahler, Lauren has achieved a lot more. She’s a New York Times bestselling author, co-founded The Little Market to support female artisans, and has built a successful lifestyle brand, starting with her clothing line at Kohl’s.

She’s moved on from the drama of her younger days, marrying musician and lawyer William Tell in a dreamy Pinterest-worthy wedding in 2014. They now have two sons: Liam James Tell and, born in October 2019, Charlie Wolf Tell.

Known for her candid personality, Kristin Cavallari has successfully transitioned from reality TV to entrepreneurship with her lifestyle brand, Uncommon James, which opened its fourth store in Charleston in 2024. She’s also expanded her business ventures with a shoe line from Chinese Laundry and three cookbooks. Over ten years with former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler, she and he welcomed three children: Camden Jack, Jaxon Wyatt, and Saylor James, before their split in April 2020.

After ending a relationship with Mark Estes in September 2024, she’s now navigating the dating world again. In a 2023 interview, she shared, “I’ve gone on a lot of dates in the last few years,” but explained she’s not necessarily picky, just unwilling to waste time on anything superficial.

Jason Wahler, known for his rebellious behavior on reality shows like Laguna Beach and The Hills, struggled with drugs, legal issues, and fights for years. He finally got help by appearing on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew Pinsky.

Since then, Jason has turned his life around. He married Ashley Slack, and they share three children: Delilah Ray (born 2017), Wyatt Ragle (born 2021), and August Robert (born 2025). Jason, who founded Widespread Recovery, continues to openly discuss his past challenges, both on The Hills: New Beginnings and in his YouTube series, JAWS Diaries with Jason & Ashley Wahler.

Now living in Nashville, Jason has reconnected with Kristen, a friend he grew apart from. He shared with TopMob News in 2023 that while they both had separate lives and families for a time, she has been a supportive friend throughout his journey.

After fueling fan fiction about a love triangle with Kristin and Stephen, actor Laguna is now concentrating on his acting career. He was a regular on The CW’s One Tree Hill for five seasons and appeared as Taylor Swift’s love interest in her “White Horse” music video. He also briefly worked as a VJ on the original Total Request Live. More recently, he starred in the 2018 TV movie Hometown Christmas and Hulu’s Everyone Is Doing Great, alongside former One Tree Hill co-star James Lafferty.

As for his relationship with podcast co-host Kristin, it’s over. Stephen proposed to NASCAR reporter Alex Weaver in November 2023. He told TopMob News in 2024 that they are enjoying being engaged while also planning the details of their wedding.

The couple chose a simple and elegant way to share their happy news. They first posted a photo of their wedding on Instagram on October 3, 2025, with the caption “Mr. & Mrs.” Then, on January 20, 2026, they announced they were expecting, writing “Mom & Dad” on Instagram.

For years, Lauren Conrad made it clear she didn’t want to revisit her time on The Hills. She recalled telling producers, “Absolutely not!” when asked about returning, stating she wanted no connection to the people from the show and craved distance from that part of her life.

After changing careers and moving to New York City, the International Culinary Center graduate and author of The Lo-Down founded Love Wellness, a line of personal care products for women, in 2016.

In 2024, she explained that while she isn’t in constant contact with many of her former castmates, that’s normal after 20 years. She remains friendly with everyone and would happily reconnect if she saw them.

Lauren has built a life she loves. She married businessman Domenic “Dom” Natale in a small Laguna Beach wedding in July 2025, and they welcomed their daughter, Nelle, in January.

“I’ve achieved a lot and created the life I always wanted,” she shared. “Now, it’s about maintaining that: happiness, health, family, and spending time with the people I care about.”

Before settling down, actor Talan Torriero had short romances with K.Cav, Kimberly Stewart, and Nicole Scherzinger. He met his future wife, Danielle Torriero, at a Los Angeles bar on her 21st birthday in 2009.

They later moved from California to Danielle’s home state of Nebraska, where they’re building a home on nearly an acre of land. The couple married in June 2014 and have three children: Bronson, born in October 2017, Hudson, born in December 2020, and Anderson Tito, born in June 2023.

Talan recalled being immediately struck by Danielle when they first met. “I wondered who that was,” he told TopMob News. “We started talking, and she said she was from Nebraska. I didn’t even know where that was! And now, 14 years later, here I am, living there.”

That first runway show was just the beginning for Trey. After leaving Laguna, he moved to New York City to study fashion design and renewable energy at Parsons School of Design, graduating in 2010. He stayed in New York, working as an associate designer at Vera Wang and also spent time in London.

In 2023, he founded Motion Illustrated, sharing on his website that after over a decade designing for major fashion brands, he was ready to showcase his own style. He generally keeps a low profile on social media, though he occasionally shares photos of his partner, Kasumi.

Lauren and Stephen’s close friend left his hometown to pursue a career in the hotel industry. He’s now the general manager of the Sofitel New York.

He remains close to his high school friends, including Lauren, Stephen, Trey, and Loren Polster, all of whom attended his wedding in Monterey, California, in 2016 to Isabell Hiebl. The couple, who consider Austria a second home, welcomed their son, Nico Josef Schmitz, in September 2018, and their daughter, Leni, in March 2023.

After appearing on Laguna Beach, KCav’s friend mostly stepped away from television. She briefly made headlines again in 2007 with a DUI arrest, but then built a quiet life in Texas with her husband, Michael Evans, whom she describes as incredibly kind and loving. They have four children. She now focuses on family and occasionally shares updates on her blog and Amazon shop, jokingly saying she spends most of her time just trying to keep track of her kids.

Remember Alex and Jessica competing for Jason’s affection? That feels like a long time ago! Alex married Kyle Johnson in 2014, with Morgan Olson, Alex H., and Taylor Cole as bridesmaids. They now have three sons: Levi, born in 2016, Kase in 2018, and Rome in April 2021. Alex used her communications degree from Chapman University to co-found MOX Agency, a social media marketing company, also in 2014.

When Morgan joined MTV in 2004, she wasn’t aiming for fame. She simply wanted to document her high school years with friends, as she told Time magazine. She also remained focused on her goal of finding a Mormon husband and starting a family.

After graduating from Brigham Young University in 2008 with a degree in humanities and journalism, she married Joel Smith two years later. She explained that she pursued the life she always wanted – finishing college, traveling, getting married, and building a career, first in New York and then in Los Angeles – regardless of her TV show. Now living in South Carolina, where she recently opened a showroom in Charleston, she’s a designer and mother to Theo, Georgia, and Julian.

Casey wasn’t one of the original stars of Laguna Beach, but she definitely made an impact when she joined the show. Since then, she’s become a successful baker, opening Casey’s Cupcakes in Orange County and even winning Cupcake Wars on the Food Network in 2011.

Her personal life is equally happy. She’s been married to Sean Brown (who is related to the late Nicole Brown Simpson) since August 2015, and they have three children: a daughter named Kensington, and sons Sean Brown Jr. and Conrad.

Just under three years after attending Taylor’s wedding in October 2015, where she stood up for real estate investor Kevin Simshauser, Taylor and a friend both discovered they were expecting babies, only eight weeks apart. She welcomed her daughter, Tatum, in September 2018, followed by sons Cole in January 2020 and Olson in August 2022. Taylor, who founded Taylor Cole Holistic Nutrition, also shares glimpses into her life on Instagram.
