Lauren Bush (born June 25, 1984) is a fashion model and the daughter of Neil Bush and Sharon Bush (née Smith) and niece of President of the United States George W. Bush and granddaughter of President George H. W. Bush.

Bush was born in Texas and went to high school in Houston at The Kinkaid School. (Her sister, Ashley, graduated from Kinkaid in 2007.) Bush has studied fashion design at Parsons The New School for Design and Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. Lauren graduated from Princeton University in 2006 and majored in anthropology. She is a member of The Ivy Club, one of Princeton's ten eating clubs, and is listed as a vegetarian by famousveggie.com.

Bush, who is 5'7", is signed with the Elite Model Agency. She has been featured on the covers of Vogue and Vanity Fair and was a much-used model at Tommy Hilfiger as well as for Abercrombie & Fitch and designers Gai Mattiolo and Isaac Mizrahi. She was an intern on the television sitcom Friends and had a cameo in one episode, and interned alongside Ashley Olsen at designer Zac Posen.[1] Bush traveled to Chad in 2005 as a Student Ambassador for the World Food Program.[2] [3]

In 2000, Bush caused a sensation when she was presented "on the arm of a prince" at the Debutantes Ball at the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris, France. [4] She has since been reported to have dated Tammer Qaddumi, a Palestinian American attending Yale, and British adventurer David Mayer de Rothschild.[5] Rumors in 2001 that she was exchanging e-mail with Prince William were vigorously denied.

Lauren Bush recently launched a new project on behalf of the UN World Food Programme to fight world hunger. www.feedprojects.org

She is currently dating Ralph Lauren's son David Lauren (b. 26 October 1971 in New York, New York, USA) and is good friends with actress Elizabeth Berkley, who is married to Lauren's cousin Greg.[6]
