Lauren Conrad claimed she wasn’t included in all of her Laguna Beach costars’ group chats ahead of the reunion.
“Apparently there’s one that I’m not on,” Conrad, 40, exclusively told Us Weekly at Roku’s The Reunion: Laguna Beach premiere on Thursday, March 26. “Yeah, they made a non producer, one. I found out.”
Conrad, who serves as an executive producer on the reunion project, claimed that she was told it was because the group was making plans to grab a bite at the time. However, she was ultimately added to chat on Thursday.
“They claim it was for a brunch, but I don’t know,” she told Us. “They said they’d add me today. I was like, ‘Thanks, guys. Too little too late.’”
Where Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari Stand After ‘Laguna Beach’ Reunion
Conrad reunited with her Laguna Beach costars more than two decades after the MTV series premiered. The show followed Conrad and her high school classmates as they navigated life as teens in Southern California. In addition to Conrad, the cast included Lo Bosworth, Christina Schuller, Morgan Olsen, Stephen Colletti, Trey Phillips, Dieter Schmitz, Kristin Cavallari, Talan Torriero, Jessica Smith Evans and Alex Hooser.
The group got together for The Reunion: Laguna Beach for Roku, which premieres on Friday, April 10.
While fans have been anticipating the reunion, Conrad confessed it took some convincing to get a few of her costars on board.
“A lot of people were hesitant,” Conrad explained, adding that she spoke to Bosworth, Schuller and Olsen ahead of signing on. “I had a call with Christina, Morgan and Lo and they asked really honest questions. They were like, ‘We all live pretty quiet lives. Do we want to do this again?’ We just really talked it out.”
Despite the “healthy hesitancies,” the group came together and Conrad shared it was ultimately a positive and memorable experience.
Lauren Conrad Says Some ‘Laguna Beach’ Costars Were ‘Hesitant’ About Reunion
“Walking away from the days that we shot, everyone separately got emails and texts being, like, ‘That was so great. I’m so glad we did it,’” she told Us. “It was a really positive experience.”
Conrad also teased it was pleasant to see Cavallari, 39, who was once her rival on the series. (On the show, Conrad and Cavallari were in a love triangle with Colletti.)
“It’s been so nice to see her,” Lauren said of reuniting with Cavallari. “You know, she lives in Tennessee, so we don’t ever run into each other. We don’t have excuses to see each other. But this has been such a nice experience.”
The Reunion: Laguna Beach premieres on Roku Friday, April 10.
