Love Is Blind Duo Reveal They’re Having a Boy
Sage Matthews: It is 2 AM and I am told Love Is Blind alums Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton have finally peeked behind the curtain on their baby s gender, confirming they are expecting a boy with a deliberately staged newspaper stunt.
Two months after announcing their impending arrival, the reality TV couple dropped a black and white Instagram clip on August 1 that shifted to vivid blue the moment they discovered the news. In the video, they step outside their home to find the cheekily titled Hamilton Herald lying at their doorstep. As they unfold the mock periodical, the headline simply reads It s a boy. Color floods into the scene and Lauren, 37, instantly erupts with delight, jumping up and down before leaning in for a celebratory kiss with Cameron, 38.
Their stylized reveal is only the latest chapter in a long fertility saga. After four years of failed attempts, countless hormone injections and in vitro fertilization, the pair finally saw the word pregnant on a home test. Cameron told People Magazine they both snuck into the bathroom to check the result. When that single positive line appeared, Lauren said she fell to her knees and cried relief. That moment of validation, she admitted, felt amazing after so many setbacks.
They have not shied away from the hard truths of their journey. On an October 2024 episode of their Love Seat podcast, Cameron thanked Lauren for enduring the daily shots and emotional roller coaster even though IVF was not her first choice. He praised her for showing a deeper level of love and partnership that he had never experienced before.
Of course, these two found each other in a social experiment disguised as a dating show. They met and married on Love Is Blind season one in 2018, trusting conversations over looks in a series of pods. Five years later, they are parading their fertility success in front of millions on social media, paying homage to the same algorithm that first brought them together.
The timing of this reveal is telling. As headlines spiral with global crises and daily chaos, here they are meticulously choreographing a gender announcement. Shared on their @lauren.speed and @cameronhamilton Instagram accounts, the clip is bound to hit everyone scrolling for a dopamine hit at dawn.
With the baby boy on the way, expect more picture perfect posts, heartfelt podcast confessions and sponsored baby gear in their near future. If you thought society was beyond curated milestones, brace yourself for an era of infant influencer campaigns.
At this point, should we even pretend to be surprised?
