Love is Blind's, Lauren and Cameron's unconventional road to happiness is paying off. While the premise of the Netflix dating show seems disastrous, Lauren and Cameron's story is proof that the show can ACTUALLY work, after all, it has resulted in two years of marital bliss for the couple. 

Now that the series' spinoff, After the Altar, is set to premiere in a few short weeks, everyone wants to catch up with their favorite success story. Let's see what the duo has been up to.

Love is Blind: Lauren and Cameron's story-turned-book

It's true: love is blind, according to Lauren and Cameron. They ended up forming a romantic connection—resulting in an engagement—without having laid eyes on one another. In response to their success on an experimental dating show, the couple has penned a book, Leaping Faith: Finding Love the Modern Way, to provide readers with relationship tips and an insider look at their time in the pods.

In one of many Instagram posts about the June 2021 release, Lauren wrote, "We ALL have opportunities to take #LeapsOfFaith in our lives and I’m happy to share some of the amazing life-changing gems I’ve learned along my way that will hopefully help or inspire you."

Lauren and Cameron are feeling the pressure, too

It's not ALL roses, according to an interview with Essence, the couple is constantly asked about the future and where children fit into their plans. They both want to honor their own timelines and do what's right for their marriage before adhering to anyone else's rulebook. 

In response to questions about the pressure, Cameron told Essence, "It's unfortunate because I know other couples are met with that same sort of pressure, and there are couples out there that can't get pregnant or don't want to."
