The tumultuous love triangle between Stephen Colletti, Kristin Cavallari, and Lauren Conrad took up most of the first season of “Laguna Beach,” but there were numerous supporting characters who left a lasting effect on viewers. Talan Torriero was one of these cast members. Torriero was a well-known Lothario despite having the appearance of the young lad next door. Conrad revealed on the podcast “Back to the Beach with Stephen and Kristin” that she was hooking up with Torriero, despite MTV giving the impression that she was yearning about Colletti. “I’ll say it: this is awful. Everyone wants Stephen, they would often say, but I was hooking up with Talan “Conrad said.
After “Laguna Beach” Season 1, Conrad and Colletti graduated, and Torriero went on to star in Season 2 with Cavallari. Though it appeared as though he was still in high school, he later disclosed an unexpected detail regarding his senior year.
Talan Torriero tried his hand at Hollywood
Although the second season of “Laguna Seaside” revealed that Talan Torriero wasn’t even a student, the show was about following the lives of high school kids who lived in their charming beach town. Torriero said in a TikTok video that he shattered his leg playing football during his final year. He made the decision to graduate early and relocate to Los Angeles to pursue a career in Hollywood after giving it considerable thought. Even Joe Simpson, a manager, was secured by the reality star. Torriero had to travel from Los Angeles to Laguna Beach to shoot his sequences in order to appear as though he was still in high school.
The career of Torriero in the entertainment industry was brief. He was supposed to co-host “Total Request Live” on MTV, but he declined because of partying (according to E! News). He might not have gotten a part in “The Hills” because of the no-show. Torriero disclosed “For a very long time, they were quite angry with me. I made a mistake by doing it. I was a new punk kid, and I had no idea better… I’m not sure if there was animosity between us and perhaps that’s why I wasn’t featured in any way on The Hills, not even as a guest, or if it was simply because my storyline was lacking.” If he had landed his “TRL” position, Torriero’s life would have taken a very different turn, but he has settled in well outside of Hollywood.
Talan Torriero is living in Nebraska and expecting his third child with wife Danielle
In addition to Talan Torriero, many of the “Laguna Beach” cast members have settled down and gotten married and started children. The native of Southern California currently resides in Nebraska with his wife and their two young children. “Quite the shift. Even without knowing where Nebraska was located on a map, I could never have imagined myself as an 18-year-old teenager filming a reality show on the beach in Orange County while living in Nebraska. However, I adore my life “He spoke with Us Weekly.
In 2014, Talan wed Danielle Torriero, and the two of them have a son named Bronson and a daughter named Hudson. He said they were having a third child as a surprise on December 20, 2022. He wrote on Instagram, “Oops baby due June 2023.”
Even though Torriero is no longer a reality star, his TikTok videos continue to amuse followers. He also said that he works as a performance marketer, creating social media advertisements for companies like NordicTrack and Smile Direct Club. Although the former “Laguna Beach” star has changed considerably since his wild days, he has retained his fun-loving personality.
