One of the best remedies of a broken heart is laughter and Lauren Alaina is getting a big dose of it! 2019 didn't start out so great for Lauren. She and her longtime boyfriend of six years, Alex Hopkins, broke off their engagement. A breakup is never easy but I can only imagine breaking off an engagement after a such a long relationship wasn't an easy decision and made it more difficult.
Now the tears have dried, Lauren Alaina is in a new relationship and smiling again. Lauren's new boyfriend is 35 year old comedian, John Crist. They've been dating since February, just a month after breaking off her engagement. How did these two love birds cross paths? Lauren responded to an Instagram video John had posted. If you've never heard of John Crist, he's actually REALLY funny. One of may favorite videos is "Church Parking Lots."
