Is there trouble in paradise for “Bachelor” stars Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell? The two got engaged during their finale last year and fans have been hopeful that these two would eventually walk down the aisle. However, there have been a few signs popping up lately via social media that have some people feeling anxious. Gossip guru Reality Steve has just tackled the situation revealing what he knows as well and folks are hoping that there isn't bad news on the way.

Some think there are signs of trouble between Bushnell and Higgins

Fans of Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell have been a bit worried over the past couple of weeks, since Lauren has taken a girls' trip out of town and is now off on another trip with her sister.

She just celebrated her birthday, but that seemed to be with friends as well, and all of this girl time away from Ben has sparked a fair number of rumors.

Reality Steve shares that he has not heard anything official about the status of Ben and Lauren's relationship, and he admits that he does not typically follow these franchise people once their seasons are over. He notes that there are definitely some red flags popping up and he also points out that Bushnell seemed to take the word “fiancee” out of her Instagram bio. However, it is still on her Twitter bio.

Despite the distance, Lauren has been tweeting about Ben

While it does seem that Bushnell and Higgins have been spending some time apart lately, she has been referencing him on Twitter fairly frequently.

About a week ago she shared that she'd gotten an early birthday gift from Ben and as “The Bachelor” aired Monday night she posted about how Higgins was tweeting about the show while not texting her back, in what was surely meant to come off as a bit of teasing. This isn't the first time that the couple's fans worried that there might be trouble in the relationship, as the two seemed to be apart quite a bit through the holiday season as well, but at this point, there is no official word that the engagement is over.

Are Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell splitting up soon? “The Bachelor” fans certainly hope that this isn't the case, and it does seem too early to know for certain one way or the other. Everybody will have to stay tuned and stay hopeful for now as they wait for Ben and Lauren to either be back in Denver together again or confirm that they are heading their separate ways.
