Lauren Gottlieb on marriage: 'I'm spicy, high energy, and Tobias gets me'
Lauren Gottlieb
, the actor and dancer, celebrated a beautiful new beginning by marrying Tobias Jones, a video creator and director based in London. Their wedding took place on June 11 in the stunning Tuscan landscape, marking a memorable moment in their journey together.
Adjusting to Married Life
Talking to Hindustan Times, the actress describes her shift into married life as a fresh experience, often catching herself saying 'my fiancé' before remembering it's now 'my husband.' She smiles as she admits that getting used to being 'Mrs.' is still a work in progress, calling the whole experience both surreal and grounding.
Love Sparked by Creative Collaboration
Their relationship started in an unexpected way—not through romance, but by joining forces creatively.
Lauren laughs, clarifying that contrary to popular belief, she didn't slide into his DMs to flirt. Instead, she was reaching out to collaborate on visual effects projects. Spotting a video he made for another dance influencer, she thought, 'That's exactly the kind of work I want to do.'
A Movie-Like Confession in London
Lauren's journey took a fateful turn when work brought her to London for not one, but two projects—a music video and an extended film shoot.

She recalls the moment their relationship changed: Tobias was the first to express his feelings. While they were crossing the street during a shoot, he took her hand and said, 'I love you.' It was like a scene from a movie. She realized then that life might become more complex with distance and multiple cities, but she had always longed for genuine love—and it was with him.
Winning Over the Parents
Lauren's parents were initially hesitant, waiting for the chance to meet Tobias.
Lauren recalls, 'I think they were just waiting to meet him. He wasn't trying to impress anyone—he was just unapologetically himself. And once they saw that, they were in. My parents have always said it's going to take a very special person to be with me. I'm a lot— I'm spicy, high energy. And he gets me.' Despite their busy careers—Tobias as a creative director and Lauren juggling choreography, acting, and dancing—the couple supports each other wholeheartedly.
Lauren shares, 'He flew to LA right after our honeymoon, and I flew to India. We're both working and cheering each other on. In today's fast-moving times, marriage is not just about vows; it's about supporting each other and pushing each other to become the best version of ourselves.'

CM Punk takes jab on John Cena reminiscent to AJ Lee's mockery on Nikki Bella
Image via WWE WWE Universe witnessed the last chapter in the storied rivalry of John Cena and CM Punk. It saw a recreation of their classic feud and throwback moments brought to life. One of them saw John Cena delivering a parody of Punk's infamous pipebomb. The Best in the World bounced back by impersonating Cena's popular 'Doctor of Thuganomics' gimmick. However, that brought back memories that related to the time Punk's real-life wife, AJ Lee, and Cena's ex-girlfriend, Nikki Bella , were feuding on WWE television programming. CM Punk's wife, AJ Lee, mocked John Cena's ex, Nikki Bella, years ago In 2014, AJ Lee was the reigning WWE Divas Champion and was embroiled in a feud with Nikki Bella. The duo was set to collide in a match on RAW. The Black Widow played mind games of her own by coming out dressed as The Fearless One, donning her outfit, and impersonating her mannerisms. Bella was visibly furious at witnessing a mockery made out of her personality. However, she did have the last laugh on AJ Lee when she defeated her in mere seconds at the Survivor Series pay-per-view to win the WWE Divas Championship and went on to set the record for the longest title reign in history. Years later, CM Punk borrowed a page from his now wife, AJ Lee's playbook and used it to mock Nikki Bella's ex-boyfriend, John Cena. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo On the SmackDown before the Night of Champions Premium Live Event, Punk came out dressed as The Doctor of Thuganomics.

This was the last time they squared off inside the ring as John Cena is on his farewell tour and will retire from in-ring competition in December 2025.

For the first time, you'll see the Izna members planning their own travel routes, picking out food spots, and basically running wild around Busan's most iconic sights. It's like your group's Goa trip, but with K-pop idols and a camera crew. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gold Is Surging in 2025 — Smart Traders Are Already In IC Markets Learn More Undo From Tourist Mode to Total Chaos-Izna's Unfiltered Side What makes 'XOXO Trip' so different?

The show promises everything from hilarious pranks and spontaneous dance-offs to those deep, late-night convos you only have with your closest friends. And let's be honest, who doesn't want to see their favorite idols mess up a little? The teaser already hints at some classic reality show chaos-think food fails, awkward selfies at tourist spots, and the kind of inside jokes only true friends (or bandmates) get. It's the kind of content that makes you feel like you're part of the group chat. Squad Chemistry, Foodie Moments, and All the Feels Izna's chemistry is next-level, and 'XOXO Trip' is set to show it off. Whether they're tackling team missions or just vibing over Busan's famous street food (yes, we're talking about those mouth-watering fish cakes and spicy tteokbokki), you'll see every side of them. The show is basically a love letter to friendship, travel, and the pure chaos that happens when you throw a bunch of 20-somethings together with a camera. And for those who've ever dreamed of a K-pop vacation, this is your chance to live vicariously. From the beaches to the neon-lit streets, Busan looks like the ultimate backdrop for some serious squad bonding-and maybe a few viral TikTok moments.

This show isn't just for K-pop fans-it's for anyone who loves travel, friendship, and a little bit of beautiful chaos. And honestly, isn't that all of us? You know, watching Izna goof around in Busan feels a lot like those late-night hostel chats or spontaneous road trips we all dream about.
