A few reality TV icons have become some of the biggest celebrities in the world today — while others have faded into obscurity. Not everyone can finagle a hosting gig into the presidency.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt had one of the most tumultuous relationships ever during their time on "The Hills."

Pratt, potentially one of the most hated reality TV stars ever, was responsible for the demise of the friendship between Conrad and Montag, one of the central themes on "The Hills."

According to Conrad, he was also responsible for spreading rumors about an alleged sex tape between Conrad and her ex-boyfriend Jason Wahler.

Montag and Conrad never truly recovered.



"Speidi," as they were called in the tabloids, are still together and welcomed a son in 2017.

Their relationship (and later marriage) has gone through a lot. Montag — who famously underwent around a dozen plastic surgeries — filed for divorce in July 2010, but later admitted that it was just for publicity. The couple also made appearances on "Celebrity Big Brother," "Marriage Boot Camp," and "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!."

Their son Gunner was born in October 2017. Currently, Pratt is killing the Snapchat game — he won Snapchatter of the Year at the 2018 Shorty Awards. The duo also launched a podcast in January 2018, aptly titled "Make Speidi Famous Again."



The girl that started it all, Lauren Conrad, appeared on both "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills," which followed her life from senior year of high school until she was 23.

"Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County" depicted a group of friends going through the typical ups and downs of high school, and it was all narrated by Conrad. The show was such a success that it led to her very own spin-off, "The Hills." And for four-and-a-half seasons, fans of the show were able to watch Conrad, her best friends Lauren Bosworth, Audrina Patridge, and Heidi Montag, navigate their early 20s living in Los Angeles.

Most of Conrad's storylines on the show revolved around her conflict with Montag and Montag's boyfriend Pratt — but the most memorable moment from "The Hills" will always be Conrad getting chastised by her boss at Teen Vogue, Lisa Love, for opting to stay in Los Angeles with then-boyfriend Jason Wahler, rather than taking the opportunity to intern in France for the summer.
