“I’m Small With Bites, But I Go Full Big Back With Life”: Love Is Blind’s Lauren Speed Opens Up About Her Food Aversions, Sharing the Hilarious and Tender Moments With Cameron Hamilton That Keep Their Love Real
Lauren Speed-Hamilton has always had a way of turning even the most ordinary quirks into something unforgettable. In a heartfelt — and hilarious — confession, the Love Is Blind star admitted that while she usually struggles with food aversions and tiny, cautious bites, every now and then she transforms into what she jokingly calls her “Big Back” self, devouring everything in sight.

“I’m small with bites most days,” Lauren laughed, “but when the Big Back hits, I don’t hold back. Suddenly I want everything on the table, and poor Cameron just stares at me like he’s witnessing a whole new woman.”
For Cameron Hamilton, these moments are more than just comic relief — they’re the little reminders of why he fell in love with Lauren in the first place. “She keeps me laughing all the time,” he shared warmly. “It’s not just about the food. It’s the way she throws herself into things with this wild, unpredictable energy. She makes even midnight snacking feel like an adventure.”
Lauren, though, sees a deeper meaning in her self-proclaimed “Big Back” tendencies. To her, it’s a metaphor for life and love itself: the balance between restraint and surrender, caution and abandon. “Food aversions, cravings, Big Back nights… it’s messy, it’s random, it’s me,” she said. “But Cameron doesn’t just tolerate it — he embraces it. That’s what makes our love real.”
And it’s in those late-night kitchen raids, when Lauren is surrounded by half-finished snacks and laughter fills the air, that the couple’s bond shines brightest. “Even when I’m eating like I’ve been starved for days, he looks at me like I’m the most beautiful woman in the world,” she confessed. “That’s how I know this love isn’t just for TV. It’s forever.”
