Lauren Bushnell & Ben Higgins breakup looks imminent

Without fail, every time The Bachelor ends rumors start to fly about the new couple breaking up so I always take said rumors with a giant grain of salt and wait until there is real compelling evidence to write anything.

Well, sadly, the evidence is mounting that Bachelor couple Lauren Bushnell and Ben Higgins are officially breaking up.

Lauren spent her 27th birthday with her family on Thursday, February 2, at the Four Seasons Resort in Punta Mita, Mexico……without 28-year-old fiancee Ben Higgins.

Lauren wrote on Instagram,

“Thank you all so much for the bday love,” …… “Humbled and blessed to have such amazing people in my life. Came down to one of my favorite places on the earth family by my side. Only thing missing is @higgins.ben. Thank you @fspuntamita for making this a birthday to remember. And thank you to the coconut man for delicious drinks!”

Higgins denies that his absence means anything saying,

“No need to respond often to rumors or ‘fake news’ but the feeling I have in this picture is the same feeling I have for this girl today,” he wrote. “We have entered into a world where rumors will exist we know that, but just know as @laurenbushnell celebrates her birthday tomorrow I am still extremely lucky to be able to share life with her and be by her side.”

The adorable couple has had a rough start after the season aired and it was revealed that Ben was genuinely in love with runner-up Jojo Fletcher. Rumors also circulated that Ben was still in contact with his ex girlfriend Shaelin Adams.

Hopefully there is a good reason that Ben could not be there, but it’s not looking good.
