By Mallory McDonald

In the season finale of Ben and Lauren: Happily Ever After, former Bachelor Ben Higgins called off his celebrity wedding  to Lauren Bushnell. Rumors of the two not making it after this decision are completely untrue. UsMagazine.com learned how Higgins feels about their relationship status, as he said, “I think at this point, Lauren and I are focusing on our relationship, which is obvious. We’re definitely together — we are happily engaged. The wedding in our mind — ‘Where’s your ring at?’ — is still on, but we are just taking some time to help plan that where it’s not stressful or overwhelming.” Bushnell shared, “Any couple feels the same pressures — you get engaged, and everyone asks when is the wedding. … We’ve navigated it relatively well and [are] doing things on our own timeline, honestly.” The stress of the show may have definitely changed the dynamic in this celebrity relationship!

We sense a little bitterness when it comes to the planning of this celebrity wedding. What are some ways to deal with a partner who is reluctant to tie the knot?
