Michelle Young gets engaged on Bachelorette season finale

Season 18 of The Bachelorette came to a dramatic conclusion on Tuesday, December 21st. Michelle Young chose between her final two suitors – Nayte Olukoya and Brendon Jones.

Throughout the season, viewers saw as Nayte expressed reluctance to get engaged at the end of the show. Furthermore, Michelle Young previously admitted to Brandon that she was falling in love with him. So, some viewers – and Brandon! – were taken by surprise by the final outcome.

After sending Brandon home, Michelle met with Nayte to give him the final rose. However, he got down on one knee to propose before she could give him the rose.

Nayte shades bad edit

Despite winning Michelle Young’s heart, it seems Nayte has little love for the Bachelorette editing team. In a lengthy post on his Instagram about his love for his fiance, he threw a little shade at the perceived bad edit for their romance.

Who would have ever thought that a reality tv show could actually work out as perfectly as it did for us. Regardless of the edit, we know our true story,” – Nayte Olukoya, Instagram.

He also wrote about people judging him for the way he looks. “Maybe it’s the tattoos and piercings. Maybe it’s the way I carry myself,” he speculated.

Nayte also called out “dweebs” who still consider him a “walking red flag.”

However, he gives his fiance praise for seeing through that “from the very first night” they met.
