About Lauren Conrad
You’ve seen her competing for boyfriends, breaking up with BFFs, and engaging in some major staring matches on The Hills. Her wealthy upbringing and love of the word “like” helped her build a lucrative reality television career. After that, she decided to focus on fashion and founded the labels Paper Crown and LC Lauren Conrad. Fans enjoy following Lauren Conrad’s career in business and on television because she has been successful in both fields.
Lauren was reared by her mother, Kathy, and architect father, Jim, in the affluent coastal California town of Laguna Beach. Lauren’s early passion with fashion was sparked by the way Lauren’s mother constantly dressed her three children to the nines. When Lauren was asked to join a group of her friends in a new reality series by MTV during her senior year of high school, she had the opportunity to show off her taste in cutting-edge clothing. The hit prime-time soap opera The O.C.’s inspiration, Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County, following a group of well-known, wealthy beach beauties.
Lauren continued to appear on the show even after graduating, and the cameras followed her as she left for San Francisco to enroll in fashion school. However, she decided she needed a break after just one semester and went back to Laguna Beach. The next year, Lauren moved to Los Angeles to enroll in the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising for a second time.
Lauren afterwards obtained an internship at Teen Vogue in Los Angeles and continued to participate in reality television in the new MTV series The Hills. Lauren also picked up Heidi Montag, Whitney Port, and Audrina Patridge to share the spotlight with on her new show. She immediately broke up with her then-boyfriend Jason Wahler before starting relationships with several Hollywood men, including Brody Jenner.
But when BFFs Lauren and Heidi started the fight of the decade, things on set would get complicated. Spencer Pratt, Heidi’s then-boyfriend (now husband), spread the story that Lauren had been in a sex tape with Wahler. The rumors, which eventually proved to be absolutely untrue, were vigorously refuted by Lauren, and Heidi supported her boyfriend rather than her BFF. The Hills’ feuding bombshells were filmed in all of their catty glory in the third season, and soon the entire nation had chosen a side: either Team Lauren or Team Heidi.
Lauren, however, didn’t let her female battling interfere with her dreams of being a fashion designer. She debuted her own line of loose-fitting jersey dresses and other beachwear in the spring of 2008, but it was ultimately discontinued. She created a line for Kohl’s anyhow, and in 2010 she revealed plans to start a another, more upmarket apparel line.
After five seasons of drama, Lauren decided it was time to leave The Hills and concentrate on her design career because she already had one going. She promptly signed a new contract with MTV to have cameras follow her, this time concentrating on her fashion line rather than her personal life, but unable to escape the adored spotlight, she did so.
Some of her former castmates have struggled to escape their dramatic roles, but Lauren has developed into a true force to be reckoned with. She is one of the most successful reality television personalities despite the bumps in her fashion career, and because to her eight published books and 2009 novel L.A. Candy, she can even add “bestselling author” to her résumé.
Conrad started the podcast Asking for a Friend in 2019. The Hills: New Beginnings, a reboot of The Hills starring Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Stephanie Pratt, Audrina Patridge, Justin Bobby Brescia, Brody Jenner, Jason Wahler, and Whitney Port, was broadcast on MTV that same year. The anticipated value of Lauren Conrad’s net worth in 2022 is $45 million.
