“I didn’t go!!!! But not bc I didn’t want to – I did! I live in NYC and I just had a babbbyyyy and I have to have a fragment of placenta removed in a few days,” shared Lo Bosworth, reflecting on her absence from the much-anticipated reunion special of Laguna Beach.
The reunion, titled The Reunion: Laguna Beach, is set to air on April 10, 2026, on The Roku Channel, celebrating 20 years since the original series premiered in 2004. Filmed in October 2025, the special promises to revisit the iconic moments from the show while also showcasing how the cast members have evolved over the years.
Lo Bosworth, who is now the creator and CEO of Love Wellness, welcomed her daughter, Nelle, just 15 days after the filming. Despite her absence from the taping, she remains a significant part of the reunion narrative. “Welcome to the world sweet girl!! So happy for you you guys 🤍,” Lauren Conrad expressed joyfully on social media, celebrating Bosworth’s new chapter.
Conrad, along with Stephen Colletti and Kristin Cavallari, reunited for a premiere event on March 26, 2026, where they discussed the importance of the reunion. “I had a lot of questions, [Colletti and I] had some conversations about it. I wanted to make sure that if we did it, we needed to have a reason to do it — how is this going to be different than anything we’d ever done?” Conrad explained, emphasizing the need for a fresh perspective.
As the reunion special unfolds, viewers can expect a blend of nostalgic clips from their high school days alongside candid reflections from the cast about their lives today. The production team, which includes Conrad, Colletti, and Cavallari, aims to create a meaningful experience that resonates with both old fans and new audiences.

As the air date approaches, excitement builds among fans eager to see their favorite cast members reconnect and share their journeys. While the reunion promises to be a heartfelt celebration, it also raises questions about the future of the cast’s involvement in reality television.
