Lauren currently lives in Marina del Rey, CA and works for Alaska Airlines. Ben revealed after The Bachelor's Season 20 premiere that Lauren -- who was the first woman to step out of a limo that first night -- took his breath away. Because he found Lauren stunning, Ben could only say, "Wow -- just wow," about her entrance.
During another episode, Lauren missed out on a date entirely but Ben assured her that he's still interested. As proof, he printed out a photo of their first conversation together for the bachelorette to keep.
