One of the many couples who made it out of the Love Is Blind Season 8 pods was Lauren O’Brien and Dave Bettenberg. The two were smitten during the early days of their engagement, however, their relationship took a turn soon after moving in together.
Specifically, it was Lauren’s dating past that Dave couldn’t get behind. Not only did she date someone else right before the show, but one of her exes happened to be one of Dave’s friends. They decided that marriage wasn’t in the cards for them and split before the wedding finale. Now that the season is over, though, Lauren just shared even more jaw-dropping details about her past relationships.
Lauren O’Brien dated Love Is Blind’s Scott Sanderson after Dave Bettenburg breakup
Lauren was a recent guest on Amanda Hirsch’s Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. During the segment, she spilled a lot of tea, including the fact that she dated another LIB alum. Months after her break up with Dave, she entered into a relationship with Scott Sanderson. He’s a fellow Season 8 contestant fans didn’t see much of because he didn’t make it out of the pods.
And, just like the ex that caused a riff between her and Dave, Scott also happens to be one of her former fiancé’s friends.
“We explored it a little bit on our own first and then decided to bring it to [Dave]. It wasn’t the most fun thing to deal with in terms of, because he and Dave are friends,” she explained in the March 25 episode.
The reality TV star defended herself for jumping right into a new relationship after her engagement with Dave ended.
“We broke up six months ago and it’s not like you and I have been chatting or anything. I didn’t feel like there was anything wrong with that.”
Ultimately, her romance with Scott didn’t work out. Lauren says that they are still friends, and she currently follows him on Instagram.
Love Is Blind is available to stream on Netflix.
