Plot Synopsis

BEN & LAUREN: HAPPILY EVER AFTER? is a one-hour reality series that follows Ben Higgins and his fiance Lauren Bushnell from Season 20 of THE BACHELOR, as they prepare to walk down the aisle and begin their brand-new life together while navigating the real world. The series opens with Ben and Lauren beginning to settle into their new normal, but unable to avoid the reality of fame and past relationships. The couple takes a trip to Los Angeles to attend the "After the Final Rose" special from JoJo Fletcher's season of THE BACHELORETTE, which forces Lauren to deal with an important issue that's been weighing on her relationship with Ben -- that fact that he said "I love you" to both women. Will Lauren be able to trust her future husband when he sees JoJo again for the first time? Then, Ben and Lauren go out to lunch with Ben's ex JoJo and her fiance Jordan, which Lauren is less than thrilled about. How will the couples handle the awkwardness as they sit next to their current lovers and across from their exes? As the couple heads back to Denver, they begin to learn more about each other's quirks and passions, which leads to new experiences and many questions. Lauren also plays a well-planned prank on Ben -- but does she take it too far? During the rest of the first season, some fan favorites from THE BACHELOR and THE BACHELORETTE stop by to visit and share their own advice and their experiences of life after the show.
