We are not flies on the wall in their household so how could we know for sure...

I am a huge fan of Ben and Lauren's, but it does look like they are having problems. That being said, I don't think they are broken up at this point. The next couple of weeks will tell. I am choosing to believe that they love each other and will be able to work things out.

Well.... If it's true, when do you think we'll know for sure that they're done? When she gets back from her trip? A month? What if it drags out as long as her BFF and the other dude?

IMO....Ben blindsiding Lauren on HEA by canceling the wedding was the beginning of the end. I think it was hard for Lauren to deal with the double ILY's because Ben never would admit any fault but IMO Lauren tried to move forward from that and make things work. IMO after the second public humiliation of Lauren by Ben on HEA over the cancelled wedding...the wheels fell off and it was just a matter of time until it was totally over. That betrayal scene was one of the most painfully real things I have seen on this Franchise. If I was Lauren's parent or sibling....I would have advised her to cut her losses and move on. I definitely think HEA ended any chance of a BenLo HEA!?. No question mark ????? needed....just the explanation point !!!!!! IMO.
JMO

Well all eyes are on Ben tomorrow. I wonder if he'll post.

The article states they are not broken up, but that a breakup is on the horizon. It looks like the source is coming from Lauren's camp (whether a producer she's close with or one of her friends) based on how it's worded. It seems someone in Lauren's camp thinks they SHOULD break up, because of the ongoing problems IMO. As I said yesterday, it's obvious to me that Lauren has been bored the last month, with all she's been doing. This whole month has seemed like a single's vacay IMO. I hope if they end of, they're both on the same page, and no one is truly hurt. We shall see what happens!

All IMO.

As far as her bff relationship, IMO bf did stop posting anything related to her beau the moment the incident at someone YouTube launch party happened. It was the beau who kept posting pics with happy happy happy title . In Ben and Lauren case IMO, they still are responding to each other in subtle ways . Just last night Ben liked two of Lauren's dad pics . So if all these subtle ways starts diminishing too than we will know for
sure .JMO. I like them so I will give them the benefit of doubt

Ben just posted a photo on instagram addressing and denying the rumors and fake stories. Sorry but that us weekly article was BS imo. They took Reality steves info and tried to turn it into a credible story imo. IMO, only they know the details and extent of their relationship not RS who specifically said he hadnt heard anything, was just reporting "facts".

He most definitely will! Remember what I said yesterday, these couples always try to save face before the breakup/if they're on a verge of a breakup IMO. And if Ben doesn't want to breakup up, he'll try to sway her, so the post seems natural to do. IMO.

I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell ya that an ice queen and a needy AF grown up adult baby (both descriptions IMO strictly) who spend zero time together might be breaking up. Jaysusss. Shocking. Thanks Us!!

Seems like JoJo dodged a bullet! Thank the Lord! But it's sad though. I guess Ben's pic would soon be removed from Mt Rushmore of the Bach franchise.

Hate to nitpick but is Ben gonna use that photo everytime he wants people to believe he loves his Lauren from the Bachelor? After the HEA finale he posted that same pic.. LOL

Since Ben posted an IG post I am more convince than now that they are closing on breaking up Ben is always trying to save face IMO
