FRIENDS' FEARS
After it was revealed that Nayte was selected as the winner of this season, meaning Brandon was sent packing, rumors circulated abut Michelle's friends' fears regarding her choice.
A source told The Sun exclusively that while Michelle and Nayte are "still together and happy" friends believe it's an "act."
Her family also "doesn't believe it will last," according to the insider.
"They have an undeniable connection, no one is questioning that," the source said of Nayte.
"But it's like they're in a constant honeymoon phase they can't really get out of. Their relationship doesn't really seem like an adult relationship.
"They're like two teenagers running around thinking this is the one but his family is very concerned.
"It's nothing against Michelle, they think she's great but they don't think Nayte is ready for marriage, not by a longshot.
"On top of that, they think this whole reality TV thing is ridiculous."
Per the source, Michelle's parents trust her, but also "had doubts" and "expressed their own concern."
The insider alleged: "Their close circle is trying to stay positive but they don't see this continuing once they finally wake up from this dream.
"Michelle is a lot more mature than Nayte and that's led to some issues already but it will most likely lead to much bigger issues in the future.
"They see red flags that Michelle refuses to see and she most likely won't ever see it until they break up."
FOREVER?
After the Minnesota school teacher chose Brandon in the finale, the pair appeared on to discuss their relationship.
Michelle said during the appearance: "We're still kind of on an emotional high and excited and everything but this has been crazy.
"I never thought I'd be in a situation where I'd be in love with two different people but this position that you put yourself in, that's something that's very likely to happen.
