Michelle Young Reveals Her Favorite Thing About Nayte, Plus: The Reason Behind How She Wears Her Ring
Answering your burning questions!
Former Bachelorette Michelle Young took to Instagram on Thursday night to answer questions from her hundreds of thousands of followers.
She started off by answering a question about her relationship with her fiancé Nayte Olukoya, who she famously got engaged to on Season 18 of “The Bachelorette.”
Michelle was asked what her favorite part of their relationship is and she said, “My favorite thing is having found someone who is just as extroverted, outgoing, and willing to have fun like I do!”
And while Michelle and Nayte couldn’t be more in love, she also opened up about the challenges of being in a long-distance relationship.
Since “The Bachelorette,” Michelle and Nayte have been spending as much time together as possible, but he lives in Texas and she lives in Minnesota.
Michelle got candid, saying, “Long distance is really hard! I would say what I struggle with most is not being able to have a hug on the hard days, even if Nayte’s hugs are a little too tight!”
Many fans have asked Michelle about why she chooses to wear her pear-shaped engagement ring with the top of the pear pointed at her.
And the former Bachelorette finally answered this question with a sweet, sentimental answer.
Michelle said, “Nayte actually asked Neil Lane which direction the ring was supposed to go on my finger and this is the direction that Neil told him!”
She continued on, saying, “Aside from all of that, it’s how Nayte placed it on my finger and so now I keep it in that direction. I’m slightly superstitious and too scared to change it!”
So cute!
We love Michelle and Nayte’s love and can’t wait to continue to follow along their journey!
