12. Dramatic License

In 2014, Audrina Patridge dropped the bomb on E! News by stating that the drama on The Hills was completely fake. While at the beginning a lot of the scenes were real, as the series progressed Patridge said “it was very manipulated and guided and you’re kind of put in these scenarios where you would show up and you didn’t know what you were in for until you were there, and you wanted to run out but they lock the door on you.”

Heidi Montag married her boyfriend Spencer Pratt on November 20, 2008 in Mexico. However, the nuptials were purely symbolic since there was no marriage license. This may have worked out well for the couple since they were featured on Marriage Bootcamp.

2. Cavallari

After Conrad left The Hills in 2009, she was replaced by Kristin Cavallari as the lead. The storyline depicted Justin Brescia as Cavallari’s love interest and Brody Jenner was portrayed as her ex-boyfriend. Cavallari explained to Ryan Seacrest in 2011 that both relationships were fictitious. She began dating Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler in 2010 and after one cancelled engagement in 2011 they eventually married in June 2013 and have three children together.
