'Bachelor' star Lauren Bushnell and husband Chris Lane are 'closer than ever', thanks to quarantine
'The Bachelor' alumnus Lauren Bushnell is set to appear on the 'Bachelor' spin-off show with her husband and country singer Chris Lane. 'The Bachelor Presents: Listen to Your Heart' is currently on-air. The show wrapped up filming in February.
The two got married in October last year and are currently isolating together in their Nashville home. The coronavirus pandemic has flipped the switch on their big honeymoon plans, forcing them to postpone their romantic getaway that was originally scheduled for April. Lane is a touring country artist and he had especially freed up his schedule for the big getaway. "I'd purposely taken time off 'cause we were going to go on a honeymoon," Lane mentioned in the interview.
Bushnell seems to be enjoying spending time with her husband but she knows he misses touring. "As much as we're enjoying time together, I know he's missing doing what he loves so much. So I feel kind of bad forever complaining about how crazy his schedule is, 'cause I definitely see how much he misses doing what he loves."
Both Bushnell and Lane are trying to keep busy as well as keep the romance alive in these strange times. In March, Lane told E! News that he and Bushnell are "closer than ever".
"We have tried to be outdoors as much as possible like going on walks, hanging out in our backyard and we've been having a blast playing games. Pool, ping pong, cards," he said, adding that they were focusing on "just being there for each other, checking in on each other and taking care of one another".
Bushnell and Lane went public with their romance in November 2018 and the couple announced that they got engaged in June 2019. Even though it might look that they moved pretty swiftly in their relationship, in reality, they did get off to a slow start.
They knew each other since 2015 where they met for the first time at a radio event in Texas. Bushnell explained that Lane "randomly asked" her to join him for a Bahamas vacation in August 2018 and that is where they found out that they like each other and eventually began dating. That same year, the couple made their first public appearance on the red carpet at the Country Music Awards.
The couple is currently dedicating equal time for their professional and personal endeavors. While Bushnell is keeping busy with working on rooms that are yet to be decorated in their home, Lane engages in some yard work along with writing and recording a follow-up to his second album 'Laps Around the Sun'.
He might not be able to perform in front of a live audience right now, but he will still get to watch his 'The Bachelor Presents: Listen to Your Heart' appearance from the comfort of their home and with Bushnell by his side, of course.
