Twenty years after Kristin Cavallari and Lauren Conrad were high school foes, the Laguna Beach stars have built a friendship.
During a red carpet chat with PEOPLE, LC and KCav opened up about how their relationship evolved after constantly clashing on Laguna Beach.
The stars of MTV’s groundbreaking reality show reunited to celebrate the show’s reunion special, The Reunion: Laguna Beach.
Let’s go back – back to the beginning:
ICYMI, Laguna Beach followed a group of high school students as they navigated the ups and downs of being a teen in Southern California. Amid the high school drama was a love triangle among Lauren, Kristin, and Stephen Colletti, who went on to star on One Tree Hill and compete on The Traitors US.
The trio’s Laguna Beach co-stars beamed on the red carpet. Joining Kristen, LC, and Stephen were Morgan Smith, Trey Phillips, Jessica Smith Evans, Christina Sinclair, Talan Torriero, and Dieter Schmitz.
On Tuesday, the Roku Channel dropped the trailer for the emotional reunion special with the cast. The trailer begins with the former foes sitting by a fire and saying that they’ve “never had a conversation on camera, just the two of us.”
Girl power!
Comedian Casey Wilson facilitated a conversation with the cast before the they discussed their high-school friendships and feuds from 20 years ago.
In one case, an infamous feud ended up an actual friendship between Lauren and Kristin.
“I think it was great,” making peace and progress with Kristin since filming the reunion special last year. “It was part of what we wanted to show is that we’ve all grown, we’re all adults, a lot of us are parents. And I think that as you get older, you’re not worried about the small stuff.”
Lauren went on to share that she and Kristin “have so much in common” and have continued their friendship. “We’ve been having so much fun just texting and talking and laughing together,” Conrad adds.
Kristin agreed. “I’m really happy about it. I’m thankful that we had the opportunity to even do that. We haven’t had any beefs for the last however many years. We’re adults. We’ve all moved past it. I think it’s nice to show everybody that we’ve moved past it. It’s going to be really therapeutic in a lot of ways.”
“We squashed it pretty quickly. Everyone wants to still believe that we’re enemies,” continued the Uncommon James creator of the pair’s past feud. “But it’s been great getting to know her now as an adult. And I’ve realized we actually have a lot more in common than I think both of us ever thought. So it’s been interesting to see.”
The Reunion: Laguna Beach streams on the Roku Channel on April 10.
