Nayte shared a similar sentiment and asked for privacy as they navigate their split. “When we both started this journey we were looking for our Soulmates. Our forever. Our best friends,” he began.”However, as we grow and learn, we also realize that sometimes somebody that you hold dear to your heart isn’t somebody that you’re meant to spend the rest of your life with.”
He continued. “Michelle and I are going to move forward separately. Hearts are heavy, emotions are high, and we are dealing with this the best way we can.” Throughout his message, Nayte emphasized that his relationship with Michelle was “real.”

“We genuinely fell in love and we genuinely became each other’s best friends,” he wrote. “Michelle and I will always hear each other on, but moving forward we will be cheering from a distance. To the public who has supported these two complete strangers on your television screen, we appreciate you so much. Our relationship may have developed in the public eye, and we know this news will bring a lot of mixed reactions, but please remember that this is real. The emotions are real. The heartbreak is real. And that we are real.”
He concluded, “We’re human beings going through a breakup, and we all know breakups are difficult. So we’re asking that you allow us our privacy so that we can mend our hearts in the privacy of our own lives. Thank you.”
