In a tender yet bittersweet escape from the real world, Love Is Blind alums Lauren Speed-Hamilton and Cameron Hamilton are pressing pause on the chaos of impending parenthood — and taking one last trip as a party of two.

“We Needed This — Just Us. No Appointments, No Baby Books, No Nursery Plans.”
For Lauren, the decision to plan a babymoon wasn’t just about relaxation. It was about remembrance — of who they were before their lives turned upside down.
“We’ve been so wrapped up in baby prep,” she admitted, “that I started to feel like we were losing touch with us. I needed to look him in the eyes and remember the man I fell in love with — not just the future father of my child.”
When Love Meets the Unknown
Sources close to the couple say the trip was filled with laughter, quiet walks, and raw conversations about their hopes, fears, and the unspoken tension that had quietly crept into their relationship.
“There’s this pressure to feel nothing but joy when you’re pregnant,” Lauren confessed in a heartfelt moment. “But the truth is, I’ve also felt scared, overwhelmed… even distant. This trip was a way to reconnect. To remind ourselves that before we were parents, we were partners. Best friends. Soulmates.”
Cameron’s Calm, Lauren’s Storm — and the Love That Holds Them Together
Friends say Cameron, ever the steady rock, has leaned hard into fatherhood prep — reading books, assembling furniture, timing contractions. But Lauren needed something softer. Something more emotional.
“He’s already showing up as a dad,” she smiled. “But I needed him to show up as my person, too. And on this trip, he did.”
A New Chapter Begins — But Not Without Letting Go of the Last One
Now back home, the couple say the babymoon gave them more than just memories — it gave them perspective.
“There’s no way to know what life will look like in a few weeks,” Lauren shared. “But what I do know is this: love isn’t just about showing up when the baby cries. It’s about showing up when your partner does.”
As they wait for their little one to arrive, Lauren and Cameron are holding on tightly to the version of “us” they rediscovered — and carrying it into the wild, beautiful unknown of parenthood.
