Lauren Conrad, Kristin Cavallari and more reunite for 'The Reunion: Laguna Beach'

Let's go back, back to the beginning, because "The Reunion: Laguna Beach" is almost here.

Nearly 22 years after "Laguna Beach" introduced the world to the lives of a group teens from Orange County, California, the cast came together for the ultimate reunion special, which was filmed in October 2025 and is set to air Friday, April 10, on Roku.

"Laguna Beach" stars Lauren Conrad, Kristin Cavallari, Stephen Colletti and more spoke with ABC News Digital at the premiere last month, which was held at Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica, California.

The idea to bring everyone back together came after the Laguna Beach High School alums had their own 20-year high school reunion.

"We've had a lot of events recently," Conrad said. "We had our 20-year high school reunion, Stephen and Kristen did a beautiful podcast where they reflected on the whole show, and one by one, we all went on their podcasts and talked to them -- and I think everyone walked away from that feeling really good about the experience."

She added, "So it started the conversation of, like, should we all get together as a group, which we haven't done, and kind of reflect on this show, celebrate what it meant and talk about the fact that a lot of us are still really good friends?"

In a Q&A during the screening, Cavallari said that even though she and Colletti have had invited everyone to appear on their podcast individually, "The one thing that was missing was getting everyone together in the same room."

"So here we are, and we're thankful that everyone is involved," she said. "It's been really fun, I have to say."

In "Laguna Beach," Conrad's storyline included a love triangle between her, Cavallari and Colletti.

Although Conrad and Cavallari previously addressed their alleged beef in 2022 on Cavallari's podcast, the trailer for the reunion features her and Cavallari finally sitting down in person and addressing how the show framed them as enemies.

Cavallari said during the Q&A, "We actually have a lot more in common than I think I thought."

"I've really enjoyed getting to know Lauren at this stage in life," she continued. "So much has happened. We're moms, we're businesswomen, there's just a lot in common. And she came on my podcast too, and that was an hour of us having girl chat, and I really walked away from that in particular being like, 'OK, I really got to know Lauren.' And I enjoyed our time together."

Conrad added, "This has been really fun."

Over the years, the majority of the cast, which also included Talan Torriero, Trey Phillips, Lo Bosworth, Christina Schuller, Morgan Olsen, Jessica Smith, Dieter Schmitz, and Alex Hooser, have kept in touch as they've pursued their careers and have all become parents.

Colletti, who tied the knot with Alex Weaver in October 2025 -- the pair are currently expecting their first child together -- said he's taken some notes from his fellow cast members as he prepares for fatherhood.

"Everybody in this cast -- I've seen them parent, I've been around them and their kids, and I'm always taking notes, and it's interesting," he said. "My wife and I, we're ready. We're so excited. And I'm sitting here feeling like, 'I got this. Let's go.'"

When asked if Cavallari, who is a mom of three, would ever allow her kids to take part in a high school reality show as she did, she told ABC News Digital that she would want them to take a different path.

"I would probably say no," she said. "I want to just keep my kids kids. I think when they turn 18, if they want to move to LA and pursue entertainment, that's one thing. But it's hard enough being a kid."

"The Reunion: Laguna Beach" premieres on The Roku Channel on April 10, 2026.
