Reality stars Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton are going to be parents! The couple, who appeared in the first season of the Netflix series Love Is Blind, announced they are expecting their first baby together. “It’s been a long time coming.”
The couple shared the news in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, discussing their journey to conceive as they’ve been trying to grow their family for four years. The reality stars went through in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and Cameron shared that they were “counting down the day” until they could take a pregnancy test. “We knew, okay, this is the day that we’re going to do the test. Of course, we’re going in for a blood test later that day, but we couldn’t wait any longer.”
When the time came for the couple to take the test, Cameron shared that they “did the classic test and we both went into the bathroom to look at the Clearblue test and it was face down.” He continued, “We flipped it over. We saw the word pregnant, and that was just a huge moment to actually see the word pregnant on the test.” Lauren shared that it was “a relief. Because, well, we’ve taken a few pregnancy tests and when you use the ones with the lines, it could be anxiety driven because it’s like, ‘Is that what I think?’ So seeing the word pregnant, it was amazing. We just looked at each other. I fell to my knees and cried.” She referenced their struggles to conceive, something the couple has been open about in the past. “It’s been a long time coming. We’ve literally been trying to get pregnant for four years.” The couple’s baby is due this fall.
Lauren and Cameron met and married in 2018 while filming the first season of Love Is Blind. Last November, Lauren celebrated the couple’s anniversary in an Instagram post writing, “Six years of love, laughter, and building a beautiful life together. ❤️ Every day with you is a reminder that love truly is the best adventure. Thank you for being my partner, my rock, and my greatest joy. Here’s to forever, my love. ✨ Happy Anniversary to us!”
Congratulations to Lauren and Cameron on the news of their first baby!
