Angel and Aaron, two of Nick’s brothers, were friends with Lauren and were aware of Nick’s compatibility with her. The two met while watching a movie at Nick’s residence in 2009.
After three hours of talking on my balcony with a view of the ocean, we kept seeing shooting stars, Nick recalled to Inside Weddings. It became quiet as we both exchanged glances.

On a private island in the Florida Keys, now lovingly referred to as “Engagement Island,” the boyband member proposed to his then-girlfriend in 2013. He knelt down and displayed a seven-carat diamond ring made by XIV KARATS.

Lauren had the same surprise. “I didn’t anticipate it. It simply felt incredibly bizarre, she continued. “We’re both on cloud nine right now and just so in love.”

She and Nick have three children
In April 2016, they gave birth to a son they named Odin Reign. In October 2019, Lauren gave birth to their second child, a daughter named Saoirse Reign. Daughter Pearl, their third child, was born on April 21, 2021.
The pair has been open about their struggle with miscarriages throughout the years. Lauren told PEOPLE in January 2021, “I was fully set on just having two children and I had prepared for that and made arrangements for that.” I wasn’t pregnant [with our third child] until I was around five and a half months along when I found out.
Nick continued, “With everything that 2020 has given to the entire world, I look at it as a blessing.” in reference to the unexpected pregnancy.
She costarred on I Heart Nick Carter
The duo appeared together in the VH1 reality series I Heart Nick Carter in 2014. Following their engagement, the series culminated on the day of their nuptials.
The Athens Banner-Herald interviewed Lauren in September 2014 on her life as a reality TV star. I was definitely nervous to appear on the show, she admitted. “I am a quiet person with a tiny, close-knit family and friends. They are my tribe, I say. My scariest worry was becoming vulnerable and sharing what I’ve gone through with any of my family or friends because I’m very sensitive and protective of them.

Lauren started making videos for her YouTube account Kitt Fit in 2013. Although she ceased streaming the next year, you may still view her workouts and fitness advice.
She started the channel to open up fitness to everyone. “I’m very inspired by people who tell me their stories because that’s why I put out the Kitt Fit videos,” she said, according to The Athens Banner-Herald. “I am aware of how challenging and costly [exercise] can be. Being fit and healthy does have a price. I’m willing to try anything and everything and to state that it “works for me.” Helping others makes me feel wonderful inside.
She appeared in Nick’s music videos
With her spouse, Lauren has been in a few music videos throughout the years. In the music video for the Backstreet Boys and Florida Georgia Line song “God, Your Mama, and Me,” she and her son Odin made an appearance.
