Lauren Conrad

Lauren “LC” Conrad became an overnight celebrity in 2004 when her life was chronicled on the MTV reality series Laguna Beach: The Real O.C.

After two wildly successful seasons, Conrad starred in the spinoff series The Hills, which aired from 2006 to 2010. Her relationships with Stephen Colletti, Jason Wahler and Brody Jenner were showcased on the reality shows, which also captured her public feud with former BFF Heidi Montag and her now-husband, Spencer Pratt, who reportedly leaked a sex tape of Conrad and Wahler. In March 2008, Conrad announced that season 5 of The Hills would be her last.

Conrad has launched several fashion and beauty lines, including an upscale runway collection for 2009’s New York Fashion Week, the Nordstrom clothing line Paper Crown and the eco-friendly makeup line Lauren Conrad Beauty. She is also the founder of BlueAvocado, an eco-friendly line of handbags, and the nonprofit and online store The Little Market. Conrad has released nine books, spanning lifestyle and fiction genres.

Conrad dated actor Kyle Howard from 2008 to 2011. In February 2012, Conrad moved on with musician William Tell, and the couple tied the knot in September 2014. They welcomed sons Liam and Charlie in 2017 and 2019, respectively.
