MATT JAMES, MICHELLE
MICHELLE’S DATE
Michelle – is an elementary school teacher from Minnesota who made her grand limo entrance later on in the season, but stole Matt’s heart right away with her maturity and witty personality.
The two started their date off strong by matching in lavender sweaters and going on a nice bicycle ride throughout the resort, as they had important conversations together about their potential future.
They continued the day full of activities and Michelle gave Matt a taste of what it would be like if he was a student in her classroom. Therefore, Michelle introduced Matt to her students via Zoom. Each student took turns grilling Matt about their future together or asking burning questions everyone is dying to know, such as “have you kissed!?” or “will you guys have babies!?”
After clearing the air with Michelle’s students and winning them over, it was time to meet the most important people in her life – Michelle’s mom, LaVonne, and father, Ephraim. At first, her dad seemed hesitant about Matt dating several other ladies. Yet, Matt still managed to quickly change their perspective once he admitted that he would leave New York and make the big move to Minnesota.
To top off the date, the two snuck in a quick game of ball, where Michelle had the opportunity to flex her basketball skills and told Matt that she was falling in love with him.
