Love is blind season 1 star Cameron Hamilton respects his wife, Lauren Speed Hamiltonwhile dealing with in vitro fertilization.
“Congratulations and happy 6 year anniversary to the love of my life!!! It is a gift to journey through life with you and watch you grow every day,” Cameron, 34, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, November 16. “Winning a legacy prize in the evening and undergoing IVF in the morning is just an example of who you are.”
He added, “You inspire me to be a better man and I am so grateful for the life we have built together. I hope that one day you will let me digitally preserve your consciousness, because the world needs you and so do I. I love you.”
Cameron and Lauren, 37, met on Netflix’s first season Love is blindaired in 2020. After tying the knot, they opened up about their hopes to expand their family.
“We are definitely starting our family planning,” Lauren shared exclusively We weekly in April 2021. “I’m not pregnant, let me say up front that we do have a little fur baby. His name is Spark. So for now he is our child and our work is our child.
Two years later, Cameron denounced the overwhelming comments about when they would have a baby.
“Can we agree that it is inappropriate to ask couples when they are going to have a baby? I made this video not only for the thousands of times Lauren and I are pressured, but for all the couples who are going through the same scrutiny,” Cameron captioned an Instagram video from April 2023. “Couples tell me all the time how painful it is if they are pressured to have children, especially because they often have difficulty conceiving. Let’s show compassion to couples by appreciating them for who they are and letting them share their baby journey when and if they want.”
In the footage, the AI scientist doubled down on his stance, noting that “you don’t know what couples are going through at the end of the day.”
Cameron and Lauren first detailed their IVF experience during an October episode of their “Love Seat” podcast.
“When I saw what you were going through in terms of taking the medications, doing the daily injections, knowing that IVF and all this stuff wasn’t really something that you naturally wanted to do, but you did it for me – you it showed me a new level of love that I had never seen before,” said Cameron, who agreed with his wife’s sentiment that the trip strengthened their bond.
He added: ‘As men it seems our first instinct is to want to fix things. When we have trouble conceiving, my first instinct is to dive into fertility research, IVF, try to consume everything I can [and] come up with a strategy, how are we going to improve it next time.”
