What they’re saying

“No, I'm not at the Laguna press day, not because I don't want to be there. I just had a baby, and I have to get some placenta removed next week—surgically—that was accidentally left behind.”

— Lo Bosworth

“I think it's important, especially for women, to find common ground and lift each other up. In this reunion we both talk about our biggest regrets or the way we spoke about each other, the way we treated each other, and we both are such different people now.”

— Lauren Conrad

“Having an hour with someone where it's just girl chat, I really feel like I got to know her now as an adult. I respect Lauren on so many different levels and I really enjoy being around her. So, it's been really nice. Who would have thought?”

— Kristin Cavallari

What’s next

The judge in the case will decide on Tuesday whether or not to allow Walker Reed Quinn out on bail.
