00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,800

Speaker 1: with i R Radio. Very exciting, guys. We have Michelle

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: and Nate on the podcast today. I'm going to try

4
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: to fill in all the questions that you didn't get

5
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: answers to on after the final rows. Uh. They are

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: a busy couple today. It's going to be interview after

7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: interview after interview, So I hope that I'm able to

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: ask them some questions that they haven't been answering all

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: morning long. Already. All right, hey guys, I'm so glad

10
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 1: to have you guys here. Um, let's let's get the

11
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: worst question over with. It has to be hard to

12
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: hear her say I love you to somebody else, truly,

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: How did it feel seeing that? And how long did

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: it take to get over? Yeah? No, so that was

15
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: one of you know, that was just then early on

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: conversation after the engagement. UM. I think we actually had

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: that conversation while we were still in Mexico because he said,

18
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: Max go for for a few days after. UM, so

19
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: you know, like I was privy to it pretty early on. UM,

20
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: and you know, we've definitely had conversations about it, but realistically,

21
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: like something that like that we've talked about is like,

22
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 1: you know, and this is definitely my perspective of it all,

23
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: is like we all know what we signed up for,

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 1: and we all know that this is not the normal

25
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: environment of how to meet somebody and and and and

26
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: fall in love and all of that. Like there's there's

27
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: thirty guys and one girl. So I think in in

28
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,559
Speaker 1: the you know, in the in the in the normal

29
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: like you know, in this environment, things like this can happen, right,

30
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: Like You're like, you're in an environment where you can

31
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: catch you can seriously fall in love, um with with

32
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: multiple people. Some people fall in love with multiple people,

33
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,839
Speaker 1: some people fall in love with one person. Some people

34
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: just simply don't fall in love. Right. But it's a

35
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: unique environment where things like this can happen. Um would

36
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: happened in in you know, the real world or whatever.

37
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: Um probably not right, but um, you know, so that's

38
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: something you know, we were in this environment, it happened.

39
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: Now we're not in that environment. It's just you and I.

40
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: I guess the world. No, I gotta wake up the

41
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: next Michelle for the rest of my life. So you know,

42
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: it was just it was just nice that we could

43
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: have those conversations so early on, Like, I definitely was

44
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: not blindsided. You know, I knew about this back in

45
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: September September, so you know, Um, it's it's it's unique.

46
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: But hey, at the end of the day, Um, how

47
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: how upset can you really be? Or how like I

48
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: guess hurt, can you really be? Right? It is what

49
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: it is. You guys are part of a string of

50
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: bachelor couples who you know ended up together after the

51
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: final the first impression Rose was given. So does this

52
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: make you believe more in love at first sight? And also,

53
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: like Michelle, did you just constantly since night one have

54
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: this It's Nate, It's Nate, It's Nate, like blaring in

55
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: your head. I we've talked about this. Actually we don't

56
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: really believe in love at first sight, just because for

57
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: me and you as I'll just the whole having conversations

58
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: and getting to know somebody for who they are and

59
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: like the intellectual sides and all these different things, like

60
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: that's something that's incredibly important to me and that takes

61
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: time to learn that And so now didn't Nate catch

62
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: my attention the moment he stepped out of the limo, Yeah,

63
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: you know, and and as we're having conversations, like my

64
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: mind was like, oh, Nate, Nate, Like I wonder what

65
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: needs doing? I wonder you know what I mean? Like

66
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: he definitely was in the forefront of my mind a lot,

67
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: um but in a way where I just wanted to

68
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: continue to spend more time with him and get to

69
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: know him more because of those feelings that I was

70
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: starting to build. So watching the finale and you saying

71
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: you know, I love you to Brandon, at what point

72
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: did you know you were going to choose Nate? Um? I.

73
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: I had a really good conversation with Tasha, but a

74
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: tough conversation with Tasha about this whole situation where I

75
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: kind of broke down, you know, me being uncomfortable with

76
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: saying I love you to two different people because I

77
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: came into this thinking how could you be in love

78
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: with two different people? Like how could you split your

79
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: heart in half? But when you put yourself in this

80
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: type of situation, it is a very realistic thing to

81
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: happen if you are all in. And that's kind of

82
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: what I talked to her about of you know, if

83
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: I'm feeling these things and I've asked these men to

84
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 1: put all of their feelings out on the table. Um,

85
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: I supposed to hold my back. Now, if I had

86
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: known at that time that it was for sure, Nate,

87
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have you know, communicated those things. Um, But

88
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: because I really did challenge myself to stay open to

89
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: the very last minute. Because you know, as you know,

90
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: one conversation in a situation like this where it's like

91
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: a high pressure cooker, one conversation can change a lot,

92
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: because you do learn a lot about somebody. One day

93
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: could change something. And so you know, I really wanted

94
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: to make sure I was putting all of my thoughts

95
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 1: and feelings out there, um, if I was truly feeling those,

96
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: and then I stayed open to the very last minute

97
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: so that I can make the best decision where I

98
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: would you know, I know for sure, and I have

99
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: that clarity because I put everything out on the line

100
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: in both relationships. Not your parents, We know that they

101
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: had a little bit of a Brandon had a heads

102
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: up there a little bit. He got to meet them

103
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: when you were in Minnesota, and then you know, your

104
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: mom said that he came across warmer at first. But

105
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 1: now we know, because after the final rose, that both

106
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: your families are obsessed with each other now, which is great.

107
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: But Michelle, how did your parents react when they found

108
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: out that you were engaged to Nate. Was there a

109
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: moment where they were like, oh, okay, now now we

110
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,799
Speaker 1: totally see that you've made the right decision for yourself. Um.

111
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: They just my parents are so supportive, and you know,

112
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: I really was open with them with where I was

113
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: at and how is feeling in both relationships. And one

114
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: thing that my parents have always done is that they

115
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: support me on And so you know, my mom and

116
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: Brandon had a conversation, and my mom and Nate had

117
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: a conversation. And you know, it may seem to the

118
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: public like that those conversations, you know, um went differently

119
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: and they did to a certain extent. But for me

120
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: and my family, we like to make sure that we

121
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: can talk through things and navigate through things. And so, um,

122
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 1: that's exactly what Nate and my mom did. And it

123
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: didn't start off on this you know, necessarily positive, you know, foot,

124
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: But what Nate really showed my mom is that, you know,

125
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: when she expressed her concerns, he was able to have

126
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: that conversation and work through those and he didn't back

127
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: away from that and at the end of that day,

128
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: I did receive confirmation from both my parents that they

129
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: would support me with whatever decision I made. And so

130
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: what I got to call them and they found out

131
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: was Nate. My mom said, Okay, I knew it, and

132
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: she was so excited and um, yes, and I haven't

133
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: looked back since. So they've been They've been awesome, Nate.

134
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: I was kind of similar to you. I didn't really

135
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: have much real serious relationship experience going into the show,

136
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: and then I ended up marrying Jared, who was really

137
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: my first serious relationship, the only person I ever exchanged

138
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: I Love you with in my life. And going up

139
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: to that point, I was like, what's it gonna be

140
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: like to like have a boyfriend and like to be

141
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: in love? Like are we going to run out of

142
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: things to talk about? How is this going to evolve?

143
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: In this being like you're kind of first like real

144
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: serious committed relationship. First I love you is like, how

145
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: has that been for you? Has it been as natural

146
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: as like people have made it seem? Oh? Yeah, Like

147
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: that's that's one thing that you know, if we want

148
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: to talk about like our relationship, sum it up like natural,

149
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: like it just comfortable natural. Um, we are just you know,

150
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: like two peas in a pod, you know what I mean.

151
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: And it's it's amazing. It's amazing, so you know, it's

152
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: it's smooth sailing. Um, it's just it really is something beautiful, right.

153
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: So and side note, I do really relate to what

154
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: you were saying about a favorite song during after the

155
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: final YEA because I don't know, it's hard to explain

156
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: things sometimes, you know, if I'm glad that somebody kind

157
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: of good knew what I was talking about. Oh my gosh.

158
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: There have been albums where I listened to it the

159
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: first time and I'm like, oh man, that's my favorite artist.

160
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: But they just came out with an album and I

161
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: don't think I like it after the first run through,

162
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: and then I let's do it again and again and

163
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: it becomes my favorite album. Um. So I totally totally

164
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: understand what you're saying. Um, the storyline of you being

165
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: reserved and like not having experience and not being comfortable

166
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: expressing yourself, do you think that was like overdone? Michelle?

167
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: Was that's something that you were focused on throughout or

168
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 1: was that something that was focused on most for TV? Sic?

169
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: I think that this environment we It's like it's like

170
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 1: a Catch twenty two kind of situation where you know,

171
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: you do you're watching, you're hoping as if you were

172
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: to watch all these love stories unfold, and like you

173
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: want these incredibly romantic, perfect love stories and that can happen.

174
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: But also at the same time, it's like, if you

175
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: get real people in this situation, we are not gonna like,

176
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: we are not going to look like we have it together.

177
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: Because you know, Nate hasn't been in a situation where

178
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: he's talked about emotions. His family has talked about emotions.

179
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: He said those I love using those different things, and

180
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: so not only is he doing that for the first time,

181
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: but now he's doing that for the first time in

182
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: front of cameras and producers in this whole situation. So

183
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: this man's learning curve was incredibly steep, and you know,

184
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: he being reserved and trying to navigate that situation while

185
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: also trying to make sure he's remaining true to himself

186
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: while also challenging himself to be vulnerable. For me, was

187
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: just all these different things that he was balancing. And

188
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: you know, if if he comes off more reserved, it

189
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: is it's a quick process and you know if that

190
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: can play off as however it did it for me.

191
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: It was not like it was his character that was

192
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: in question. It was like, Okay, this man has some

193
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: walls up, Like let's talk about marriage on our second date, right,

194
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: like like understandable, you know what I mean? Like it's

195
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: just like let's take a step back and actually, like

196
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: if you look at these things on paper, Like it

197
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: was really truly amazing that he was able to learn

198
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: that quickly put his feelings out there, even in this

199
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: chaotic environment where there's other people and all these different factors,

200
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:44,079
Speaker 1: and you truly are seeing a human navigate love and

201
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: what's not what's not beautiful about that? So I love

202
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: that answer? Uh down payment on the house? Like wow,

203
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: was that just the biggest kind of gift? Was that?

204
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: That's incredible? Like I I feel like you guys are

205
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: the first couple to have gotten like a gift of

206
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: that size during the finale. Yeah, I was not expecting that.

207
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 1: What we were not expecting that whatsoever you can see

208
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: it on our faces still is not sunk in at all. Um.

209
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: I was even nervous, like lifting the check out of

210
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: the box, I'm like, is this the real thing like

211
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: I got I sing on it. What do I do?

212
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: You know? But we were just really really just so

213
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: grateful for that, because I mean I mean, yeah, wow,

214
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: what like how can you say? Words cannot describe how

215
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: we feel in our appreciation for that. Um that that's awesome, good,

216
