Arie and Lauren Luyendyk are getting ready to head to Hawaii with their three kids! The couple, who met on “The Bachelor,” will be flying to Maui where they purchased a home back in April.
Arie and Lauren made the announcement by way of a YouTube video in which they explained their decision to buy a house in another state — while Lauren was pregnant with twins. “So, we were on Zillow actually, looking for a second home in Tahoe,” Arie explained. “Yeah, and then randomly somehow we landed on Hawaii,” Lauren added. “And now, we’re in Hawaii!” Arie laughed.
The Luyendyks gave fans a tour of the empty home that they had purchased, and seemed excited to spend some time on an island for part of the year; Arie and Lauren will still be keeping their home in Arizona, where they plan on spending the majority of their time.
Lauren gave birth to twins Lux and Senna back on June 11, 2021.
