Lauren Conrad doesn't appear to be on great terms with Spencer Pratt.
During the Wednesday, April 8, episode of TODAY With Jenna & Sheinelle, the Laguna Beach alum, 40, tensed up when asked whether she and her former costar have made amends.
While the stars were on The Hills together, Conrad saw Pratt as untrustworthy and a negative influence on wife Heidi Montag.
Lauren Conrad guest-starred on 'TODAY With Jenna & Sheinelle.'
Host Jenna Bush Hager told Conrad, along with Kristin Cavallari and Stephen Colletti, that Pratt is running for mayor of L.A. and asked whether they support his political pursuits.
“I’ve seen it everywhere,” Cavallari said, then adding sarcastically, “New to me!”
“Well, I’m not a resident of Los Angeles,” Conrad noted, dodging the question.
“I don’t live in L.A. either, but I don’t know, he’s on to something, so we’ll see what happens,” Cavallari expressed. “I will always have a soft spot for Spencer.”

Lauren Conrad has a long history of feuds with Spencer Pratt.
Bush Hager awkwardly noted that Conrad was avoiding eye contact with her.
“Have y’all healed any past beef?” the media personality asked.
“Umm…” the fashion designer said uncomfortably, then stumbled over her words. “Sure. You’re asking me about someone I haven’t spoken to in decades.”

“Brody couldn’t fake-date L.C. anymore,” he claimed on the “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast. “He wanted to start getting some real clout. He was out in the club scene, there were a lot of opportunities, and then once the fake dating ended and he wasn’t down for that, she wanted her wing woman [Heidi] back.”
“The final end game was — they didn’t show this — but she made Heidi go out with her on Valentine's Day when we were official,” Pratt added. “Wouldn't let her leave till like 4 a.m. They're f------ having breakfast pizza together and [Heidi’s] like, ‘I gotta go back and see Spencer.’ And [Lauren] turned it into this big thing.”
