Lauren Fenmore, daughter of that late rich Neil Fenmore of Fenmore Department stores, appeared in Genoa City in 1983. Although she and her father were very close, Lauren's mother Joanna left her as a child and only occasionally has shown up in GC over the years. As a teen, Lauren sang in Danny Romalotti's band along with her rival Traci Abbott, then went on to fall in love and marry Detective Paul Williams.
Despite Paul's mother Mary's interference, the two remained happy until a crazed man named Sean whose main purpose was to make Paul believe that he and Lauren were having an affair stalked Lauren. The plan worked and Paul divorced Lauren, but later found out the truth after rescuing Lauren from Sean! However, though they tried, Lauren and Paul never reconciled. Lauren's father soon passed away and she took over the Fenmore department store empire.
Lauren's life became the obsession of another crazy person, Shelia Carter, after marrying Dr. Scott Grainger. After drugging Scott, he and Shelia had sex and she became pregnant. Scott divorced Lauren out of obligation, then found out that Lauren was pregnant too! Unbeknownst to anyone, Shelia had a miscarriage, but was determined to still have Scott's child. Shelia then bought a child on the black market and switched it with Lauren's baby! Lauren's baby, Dillon, ended up dying of meningitis and Shelia went on to raise Lauren's real child Scotty!
After the truth came out, Shelia tried to kill Lauren, but in the end Lauren and Scott were reunited with their child, leaving everyone to believe that Shelia had died in a fire. While traveling to Los Angeles, Lauren found herself facing a ghost after attending her good friend Eric Forrester's wedding and finding his bride to be Shelia! Through a series of events, Scott came down with a mysterious disease and managed to convince Lauren that Shelia had changed. Scott died and Lauren moved to LA to work with Spectra Fashions to promote her new clothing line.
While in LA, Lauren had an affair with Psychiatrist James Warrick during a time when he had Shelia committed to a mental institution for Eric Forrester! After his divorce from Shelia, Lauren and Eric had a brief affair but found themselves at the hands of a manic after their plane crashed on their way back from Venice. In the end, the maniac was killed and Lauren and Eric went their separate ways.
For years, Lauren was content to travel the world while keeping together the Fenmore Empire. With Scotty tucked safely away in boarding school, Lauren moved back to Genoa City in 2001 and partnered up with Jabot to open the Glow by Jabot Boutique. Although Lauren would have liked to reconcile with her ex-husband Paul Williams, she found herself at the center of another obsessed person, Kevin Fisher, who claimed to love Lauren. In an attempt to help Kevin through his emotional state, Lauren fell for and married his brother Michael Baldwin.
When Lauren's son Scotty, now an adult, showed up in Genoa City to help plan his mother's wedding, Lauren became worried for his safety after finding out that Shelia escaped the mental hospital! Soon Shelia returned to GC in disguise as a student who Scotty was tutoring and convinced Scotty to write her memoirs. During their time spent on Scotty's new book venture, Shelia managed to poison Lauren and even worked with Michael's stepfather Tom Fisher to kidnap Lauren on her and Michael's honeymoon!
While everyone had thought Lauren died in an explosion during her and Michael's honeymoon, Tom Fisher had turned the tables on Shelia and held both her and Lauren hostage! Amazingly, Shelia and Lauren had worked together to try to escape Tom's hold, but in the end failed. After Scotty had found out that his co-author partner was a fake and later found out and realized that the story for their novel was in fact a horror replica of his mother's life, Paul Williams was able to track Lauren and Shelia down in an old abandoned farmhouse and save Lauren's life. However, once again, Shelia escaped.
After Lauren was reunited with Michael, she became pregnant but lived in fear that Shelia would come back and harm her and her child. However, Paul came forward with evidence that Shelia had undergone surgery to look exactly like Phyllis Abbott, but ended up dying somewhere along the line. In 2006, after Lauren gave birth to baby Fenmore, she experienced panic attacks and refused to leave the apartment due to the hidden fear for her child's life!
Just when she finally started letting her guard down, Lauren found out that Paul and Michael were holding Shelia, with the face of Phyllis, in a cell! However, Lauren's terror had just begun because Shelia went on the run with Fen, Summer, and Phyllis Newman in her evil clutches!
Now that Sheila is dead, Lauren has settled into her life with Michael and their son. She runs the boutique and runs interference for Michael's dysfunctional family members!

On the patio, Lauren tells Kevin that she called Ryder a rat the day before the wedding - she knows he heard her! It's too much of a coincidence that she then received a rat as a gift! Kevin says he can't believe he would do something so twisted. Lauren feels Kevin's in denial.
Michael goes to Crimson Lights to tell Ryder that he's cutting him loose - he's representing Daniel now. Kevin appears and asks what's going on. Michael says that Ryder is off the hook for the murder, but could be indicted on other charges - but he won't represent him. Kevin is angry, and he and Michael get into it. Lauren asks Ryder what his problem with her is? Ryder says he didn't send her a rat - he doesn't like them. Ryder won't cop to something he didn't do - he says he actually likes her and Michael, but they keep making it so difficult for him. As he gets closer to Lauren, Michael intervenes. Kevin asks Lauren and Michael to leave the premises! Lauren is astounded, but Kevin says he's had enough - no one will cut this kid a break! Ryder makes a call as he watches them leave. He tells the person that Lauren got the present, and they think he sent it - they really jumped the gun!
Lauren and Michael meet Phyllis and Nick on the patio at Crimson Lights. Nick gives Michael checks for Gloria and Jeffrey. They all agree that Nick was smart not to drag it out.
Inside the coffee house, Gloria and Jeffrey hover around Kevin. Gloria tells her son that as soon as Nick Newman hands over those big checks, the aprons coming off for good! Michael and the others go inside and Gloria and Jeff receive their checks. Nick leaves for work, and Gloria and Jeff take Michael aside and say that the amount of the checks is nothing compared to what they lost! Michael hisses at them that they were lucky to get anything!
Jill comes into the coffee house and gets her check from Michael. She says the money will come in handy, and Gloria and Jeffrey start fishing for information about what she plans to do with her share. Jill takes off, and Gloria and Jeff continue to appeal to Michael about the low amount of money offered to them. Michael asks why they couldn't just once be happy with what they've got? Jeff says it's the principle. Michael tells them to get a good financial adviser and stay out of trouble. Kevin and Ryder appear at the table, and when Kevin learns that Glo is quitting, he tells Ryder he'll have more responsibility around there! Ryder grabs the coffee pot and heads out to the patio, where Phyllis and Lauren were just discussing if he could be behind the rat in the giftbox. Ryder asks how the wedding was, and the women exchange looks! Michael joins Phyllis and Lauren on the patio as Ryder goes about his business and Gloria heads out the door. Phyllis and Lauren ask Michael to find out where Ryder was at the time of the wedding. Phyllis leaves, and Lauren and Michael quiz Kevin on Ryder's whereabouts, causing Kevin to become angry.
Gloria and Jeffrey meet back up at Crimson Lights with a ton of shopping. They tell Kevin that they think Jill knows something that is going on at Chancellor - since Kay gave him his job back there, he could find out! Kevin says he won't do it. Kevin spots Michael and Lauren grilling Ryder on the patio and goes over to their table. Ryder tells them he knows where the wedding was held, but won't tell them who he was with the night before. Michael leaps up and grabs Ryder by the lapels, hollering at him to confess! Michael is pulled off and calms down. He tells Lauren that he may or may not have done it - but either way he's a bad seed!
