Arie Jr & Lauren Luyendyk - Bachelor 22 - Discussion #5

https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts/off-the-vine-with/arie-lauren-luyendyk-iWKyjXoHLQY/

Four year anniversary already!!

They've done a lot in 4 yrs. Having 3 children and being so busy K asks if they are tired. Arie laughs, they still have lots to do. They want to travel more, because of the show they love to travel, a little harder now with 3.

Traitor Show- It's like a real game of clue. 30 people together in a castle in Scotland and 3 are traitors. You have to figure it out, a mix of people, stressful leaving Lauren for a month, but a real fun experience.

They talk about their kids, Lux is obsessed with Lauren, if she's not in the room he cries. Senna does what she wants, under the radar, sneaky spicy, Alessie is a sweet funny big sister.

They took Arie's phone, L kept sending vid's, they couldn't talk very much. L and kids spent the month with her mom.

They have family, and a nanny to help out. Alessie just started school. K asked if they have similar parenting style, Arie says for the most part, L is more micro management, laughing just today L told Arie how to make a peanut butter sandwich, Arie laughing says he thinks he's got it (as if he's never made one before) Both are relaxed and like the children to figure things out. They discipline in a clam manner.

How is it being parents on SM? They have pretty thick skin, sometimes it catches L on hormonal day. If she posts a pic of one child, people remark don't you love your other children? (how can people be so ignorant)

The youtube channel is for them to look back on.

They've been talking a lot about taking the children out of SM. Especially L.

Alessie started school and a particular Dad is all excited, "omg it's Alessie everyone is talking about her," freaked L out. It confuses Alessie.

I didn't listen to it all but I always enjoy these two, lots of laughs.

I have been listening to some of CH's podcasts, I like him, it's LZ that's annoying. She name drops like crazy and pretty much takes over a lot of the times.

I listened to Arie and Lauren on K's podcast, I'm expecting it to be much of the same but I'm curious what trouble there is in Bachelor in Paradise.

Wonder if it has something to do with the private lodge/space that they film at.

Vanderpump rules, cheating, and Chris Rock.

At 35:25 A&L start.

Rough patches - Nothing could prepare them for having twins. Sleeping 1 hr at a time. Sleeping in separate rooms so one could get some sleep then switch nights. Tempers flare, sleep deprived. It wasn't easy. It got easier, they prioritize their relationship, his parents or hired help really helps. Lauren says Arie pushed it, because she didn't want to leave them, she's thankful now.

Making the time is the biggest thing. They try to do it weekly.

Rumours - break up- they come up frquently. Arie says there are some IG pages out there trying to get clicks and make up the break up.

They have thought about adopting. Arie feels he might have had the big V too soon.

They talk about the switch. It was very tough for Lauren. She told everyone he's making a mistake. She held out hope for awhile but decided she had to move on. Shortly after he contact CH to let him know the thoughts he was having who told him, you better be sure, it's not going to be good for you. CH made sure he was sure because it was going to be rough. Arie just wanted to try. They spent months together bonding, they leaned on each other after the finale.

They talked about their new app. CH and Lauren did it and loved it.

Lots of friendship and supportive talk, between CH and Arie, how far he's come etc.

No mention of BIP at all.
