Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell may have called it quits - or not. Rumors have it that the split news is only a way to promote "Happily Ever After," but there are clues that point at "The Bachelor" couple calling off their wedding.
Following the finale of "The Bachelor," news started to circulate that couple Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell are on the rocks even after the engagement. Despite the rumors that the "Happily Ever After" couple is breaking up, their social media posts say otherwise.
In fact, in their recent vacation, Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell look so sweet together with the groom-to-be kissing his future wife by the beach in Turks & Caicos. This may have debunked the rumors that the couple is heading for a split, and the only thing that will be canceled is the "Happily Ever After" show.
On the contrary, Ben Higgins shared his thoughts during one of the episodes in "Happily Ever After," saying that he seems "disconnected" with the wedding planning and all the process in between. This has heightened the confusion even more, leaving the fans wondering if the split up is all for the show.
"When it comes to me calling the wedding off, I can't really speak on that at this point," Ben once told The Hollywood Reporter. "But our life is, right now, really focused on fighting those big battles. We're very happy. We're doing very well, and I guess I'll leave it at that."
It seems like the "Happily Ever After" couple, Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell are going strong than ever, especially since they have passed the issues they have gone through, including the one about JoJo Fletcher. They reportedly attended counseling so as to give their marriage a strong foothold.
In an interview with People, Lauren Bushnell said, "We are not in any rush, but everyone else around us is! We're both ready to get married, but we haven't set a date because we want to make sure we're not doing it for anyone but ourselves."
Now, the couple is still very much engaged, and no wedding date has surfaced yet. Ben said that they are doing it on their own terms.
