On Lauren and Titus, Part 2
I just remembered that when I became engaged (around the same time of year as these two), I needed my ring resized and it took a while, I think because the holiday season is a common one for engagements. The fact Lauren isn’t wearing her ring may not mean very much.
The social media purge is weirder, though, and hard to explain. Some people have said that the Halls were upset by some of the mockery Titus received on Reddit and elsewhere and they wanted to do a major social media scrub as a result, but I’m not so sure. But the fact the Halls and the Caldwells are still friends on Facebook is interesting.
On the other hand, the Caldwell family recently posted a video of a Christmas pageant that included Lauren and Titus as soloists (it was shared on their Instagram). Even if that video was filmed a while back, would they have shared it if the engagement was broken? And do we really think the pageant was filmed all that long ago? I’m not sure.
The mystery continues! Of course, either one of the family could clear things up by making a simple statement: i.e. “We are so excited for the wedding!” or, “The Lord was leading them in different directions” (i.e. the Duggars with Josiah and Marjorie). I guess if we pass June 18th without a wedding, we’ll know for sure.
Even though this is a tough situation, I do think the best thing for Lauren would be if the Caldwells briefly addressed the speculation once by either confirming the engagement or stating it was broken off, because otherwise gossip will proliferate for months, and people will continue to make wild assumptions that portray the situation in the worst possible light. But perhaps things are in limbo and they are waiting to resolve things before saying anything.
