Warning: This article contains spoilers for Love Is Blind season 8.
After seeing Dave and Lauren’s rocky start and love triangle drama in the pods, fans of Love Is Blind might be skeptical about whether the couple are strong enough to make it down the aisle. So, we’re investigating whether Dave and Lauren are still together after the show.
31-year-old Lauren O’Brien and 33-year-old Dave Bettenburg had a somewhat awkward first introduction but soon found common ground when they discussed their family goals. However, Lauren later learns she’s part of a love triangle when another woman from the pods, Molly, is gushing about her connection with the medical device salesman.
Dave eventually ends things with Molly and proposes to Lauren, who works in educational sales. On their vacation, their bond grows but things get more complicated when they return home to Minnesota.
While fans online are more concerned about Ben and Sara’s relationship on the show, Dave is becoming another of this season’s villains after his reaction to learning that Lauren was dating someone in his social circle before entering the experiment. Lauren and her friends insist it was casual but his friends claim otherwise. In this season’s latest cliffhanger, Dave is left unsure of what to believe while Lauren feels frustrated about having to defend her character.
We’ll have to wait to see it all play out on screen but given that Love Is Blind season 8 was filmed back in February and March 2024 (and one marriage has all but been confirmed) there are a couple of conclusions we can draw about Lauren and Dave’s relationship.
Are Love Is Blind’s Lauren & Dave Still Together?
It is unclear if Lauren and Dave are still together so we will just have to wait for the rest of Love Is Blind to air. The pair do follow each other on Instagram but they have not liked any of each other’s posts since the show filmed — which may also be an effort to keep their relationship under wraps.
Things also don’t look great for the couple in a teaser clip for future episodes of the show. Per the teaser, Dave’s other connection in the pods Molly tells his that he’s allowed to “change [his] mind completely” and he admits he “f-cked up.” Sounds like trouble is brewing!
