‘Party Down South’ Cast News: Lauren Dating Lil’ Bit’s Ex? Fans Questioning Her About Grant After PHOTOS Of Them Together Surface Online [VIDEO]
Lil' Bit expressed some extreme jealousy when Lauren had a phone conversation with her then-boyfriend Grant during the second season of Party Down South-but her feelings may have been justified now that Lauren appears to be growing closer to him.

Back on the third episode of the show's second season, Lil'Bit and Lauren had a small misunderstanding after Lauren talked to Grant on the phone and was accused of flirting with her friend's boyfriend.
During the episode, Lauren asked to talk to Grant and told him she was going to come to Nashville with Lil' Bit after the show ended.

"So bring some friends that I can hang out with. As long as they sing, play the guitar and twerk like Luke Bryan, we're going to have a good time," she said to Grant at the time.
Grant appeared to mishear her though, thinking she was talking about him, which inspired a jealous rant from Lil' Bit where she even threatened to beat Lauren if she was genuinely flirting with her man.
And though Lil' Bit did eventually end things with both Grant and Daddy (and has recently announced she is expecting a child with her new boyfriend), it appears she may have had some valid concerns, as Lauren and Grant both recently posted photos of themselves together on social media accounts-sparking fan curiosity that the two could now be dating.
Lauren posted a photo of herself with Grant on her Facebook page Oct. 22, and fans of the show immediately recognized him as Lil' Bit's former beau-and several asked her if they were dating.
"You look great (: lil bits loss haha! Grant was too cute for her anyways!" one fan commented on the pic.
One fan however, stood up for Lauren, saying that if she were dating Grant these days, it wouldn't even matter since he and Lil' Bit were over a long time ago-and that a photo of them together doesn't prove anything.
"Just because she's taking a picture with him doesn't mean she's dating/screwing him!! Lmao," the fan wrote. "Him and lil bit aren't even together anymore so it doesn't matter."
Grant also posted a photo of himself with Lauren and another woman on his Instagram page, writing that he was enjoying hanging out on a tour bus with the women, but didn't mention anything about potentially dating his ex's former co-star.
Fans are especially interested in whether or not Lauren has been dating someone since season 2 ended, as several photos have surfaced of her wearing what appears to be an engagement ring, and while she hasn't specifically addressed the rumors, her co-stars Tiffany Heinen and Josh Murray have.
"Ok guys. That's Mattie, Tiffany, and Lauren. They were in New Orleans this past weekend together. I can PROMISE YOU that nobody is sick, or engaged!" Murray commented on an earlier photo that stirred up controversy, where fans questioned Lauren's relationship status and whether or not Tiffany had had some plastic surgery done.
Tiffany also addressed the rumors about Lauren after posting a photo of the two of them and Mattie while in L.A., where a fan once again asked about the ring on Lauren's finger.
"Is Lauren engaged? I didn't think so but she has been having b a ring on that finger for a while," the fan wrote.
"Stay tuned lol," Heinen replied.
Fans may find out answers about Lauren's potential relationship status (and if she's with grant), when Party Down South returns to CMT for season 3 in January. Prior to that premiere, fans will be able to catch up with the cast for their two holiday specials-Drunksgiving airing Nov. 20 at 8 p.m., and Christmas Hangover, airing Dec. 18 at 8 p.m.
