Meet the woman "happily married" to her high school bully - despite him teasing her every day for months as a teen.

Lauren Enslow, 20, fell in love with Lucas Olsen, 21, when she forgave him for tormenting her every day at school when she was 15.

Lucas and his friends would call Lauren ‘Linda’ after the cartoon character from ‘Bob’s Burgers’ and Lucas would film the teen in the hallways at school.

But after Lauren was in a car accident in November 2017, Lucas reached out concerned and the bullying stopped.

The pair hit it off as friends and then began dating in February 2018 after they developed feelings for each other.

The couple went from strength to strength and Lucas proposed on top of a mountain in July 2022.

They tied the knot in October of the same year – the same date they met six years prior.

But things changed after Lucas witnessed Lauren in a car accident in November 2017 her mum Jessica Enslow, 48, and sister, Alyssa Kimber, 28, when their car shunted into another vehicle.

Lauren shared a picture of the banged up car on her Snapchat and was surprised when Lucas reached out.

“He asked if I was OK,” she said.

“It showed he cared.

“It helped me like him again.”

After the accident, Lucas stopped his teasing, and the pair became friendly after Lauren’s pal convinced them to go on a double date.

“We started hanging out and having lots of fun,” Lauren said.

“I started to develop feelings for him.

“He apologised for teasing me.”

The pair started officially dating in February 2018 and Lucas proposed in July 2022, after four years as a couple.

“He took me a top of a mountain to see watch some fireworks,” Lauren said.

“Then he got down on one knee and pulled out a ring.

“I had been a bit suspicious but still very shocked when it actually happened.”

The couple tied the knot in October 2022 - eloping with just their immediate family present at the ceremony.

“People say they could never marry their high school bully,” Lauren said.

“But for me it was mostly teasing, and I got past it.”

Lucas said: "There was always feelings for her but I think once we both were wanting the same thing life just did it’s thing.

"I’m a strong believer of everything happens for a reason and I love that it finally happened.

"Marrying your high school sweetheart is the most beautiful thing I could ever dream for.

"Lauren is awesome and I couldn’t ask for a better person to experience the rest of my life with. I want a family with Lauren, I’m excited to build a house and watch the rest of our dreams come true."
