Chris Harrison and Lauren Zima are married! The former "Bachelor" host, 52, and the reporter, 35, tied the knot twice, first in Napa, Calif. on Oct 14 and then again in Austin, Tex. on Nov. 4, according to People. The couple first met in 2016 when she was interviewing him, and they became romantically involved in 2018. Chris then popped the question in Oct. 2021! The newlyweds gushed to People about their connection and what makes it so special. "Lauren is not just brilliant, but she is kind and she will love others to exhaustion. That quality, that magnetism that draws people in and makes everybody feel like they're the only person in the world right then, is so rare. She loves me in ways that I never dreamed I could be loved," Chris revealed to the mag. Prior to Lauren, the former "Bachelor Nation" front man was married to his college sweetheart Gwen Harrison, but they called it quits in 2012 after 18 years of marriage. The former couple share two children together.
