Meet Michelle from The Bachelorette

The Bachelorette’s Michelle Young is a 28-year-old kindergarten teacher who hails from Minnesota.

Michelle used to be a Division I basketball player but opted for a change of career into education.

Now, she’s also a reality TV star and is on the hunt for the man of her dreams.

During The Bachelorette season 18, Michelle said: “There’s a reason why I’m still single – it’s because I’m not going to settle until I have a love as powerful as theirs.”

The Bachelorette: Who are Michelle’s parents?

Michelle’s parents are called Ephraim and LaVonne Young.

The couple are clearly a living example of what marrying the right person looks like. Ephraim and LaVonne are still in love and speaking of her parents, Michelle said that growing up, her parents were always a team.

Her mother said that she’d want Michelle to find someone like her father, someone giving and kind. Both of her parents appeared very supportive on The Bachelorette and said to Michelle: “We’re behind you 100%“.
