“But when they opened [the doors] during the unveiling ceremony, he was so handsome. Like I said on the show, he was literally like Prince Charming to me,” Lauren added. “First, because of everything he said, how he treated me, and because he’s easy on the eyes. So I was happy.”

Reflecting on what it’s been like to spend half a decade together, Cameron added: “Five years is both a long time and not a very long time. At the same time, it’s really a matter of perspective. I mean, it went really fast, but then there were moments in whose marriage took a lot of work. You have to put in a lot to get to a good place, which is what I love about this place.”

The fan favorites said they are also planning to return to the TV screens.

“We’re definitely planning our return to TV. We’re hearing people clamoring for us to host. And I think that would be a really wonderful thing. I’d really like to help couples find love in this unconventional way, not necessarily Love is blind, but maybe our own format. And I really love that idea of ​​helping people find love,” Cameron said.
