5 Things You Never Knew About Lauren Conrad

From Laguna Beach and The Hills to her Instagram and Snapchat accounts, there are plenty of avenues for getting to know Lauren Conrad. But how well do you know the real her? The reality-star-turned-designer shared 25 fun facts about herself on her website, and we have a feeling there are plenty of things you had no idea about. From the origin of her middle name to a funny (and super awkward) high school memory, she shared tons of interesting tidbits, but we narrowed it down to our favorite five. Red on for our picks, and head over to her website to see the full list. 

1. "I met my husband when I was 16 and sitting onstage at one of his concerts. Ten years later we were set up on a blind date."

2. "I have chipped (and had to fix) my front left tooth three times in the last year. Klutz." 

3. "When I was in high school I was playing Twister at a pep rally in front of the entire student body and my pants fell down. I blame the low-rise jeans trend…"

4. "My name is Lauren Katherine, which is a version of my Mother’s first and maiden name, Katherine Lawrence, flipped."

5. "My go-to cocktail at a bar is an extra dirty martini."

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
