​"Thicc As Thieves"! Lauren Alaina is married to her longtime partner, Cam Arnold.

The country star and businessman tied the knot on February 4, 2024, after about four years together. Following the couple’s extravagant Nashville wedding at The Schermerhorn Symphony Center, which boasted a guest list of 450 people, fans are wondering about Lauren’s ​new husband.

Who Is Lauren Alaina’s Husband Cam Arnold?

Cam is a Nashville-based sales professional who works in the insurance industry. According to Cam’s LinkedIn profile, he has more than eight years of experience in sales and currently serves as the ​vice ​president of ​sales at SouthPoint Risk, an independent insurance agency.

It seems that opposites attract for the American Idol alum and Cam, who prefers to stay out of the spotlight despite his wife’s celebrity status.

Cam is so private that Lauren once joked during a November 2022 interview with People that he “likes to be in the shadows” as she shines on stage.

This aspect of Cam was endearing to Lauren, who ​described ​him as a man ​that “wears a suit for work every day” during another March 2023 interview with People.

“I'm not sure that he had any idea who I was when he met me. And I'm still not sure he fully does know who I am!" Lauren quipped to the outlet at the time. "I'm just kidding. But he's very normal."
