Who is Nayte Olukoya on ‘The Bachelorette’ Season 18 with Michelle Young?

Nayte’s Bachelorette bio on ABC’s website reveals Michelle’s contestant is from Austin, Texas. Of course, that’s a little far from our new bachelorette, whose hometown is in Minnesota. But it certainly seems like Nayte and Michelle could be a good match.

According to the profile, Nayte is only looking for a “long-lasting relationship that will go the distance.” The Bachelorette star also hopes to find a woman who is outgoing and spontaneous. However, Nayte admits he can’t dance, and co-hosts Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe can vouch for this statement. 

During the “Meet the Men” Instagram live, Kaitlyn teased that Dancing with the Stars is “not” in Nayte’s future. Tayshia also suggested that they “witnessed” some of his dancing skills on The Bachelorette. So we’ll see whether Nayte is able to impress Michelle with his moves.

Nayte is 27-years-old, and The Bachelorette Season 18 contestant is a Senior Sales Executive for Indeed.com, per LinkedIn. He went to Eastern Washington University, where he graduated with a BA in Business Management and a Minor in African American History. 

How tall is Nayte Olukoya from ‘The Bachelorette’?

Nayte’s height is pretty impressive, even for Bachelor Nation standards. According to Nayte’s Bachelorette bio, he is 6-foot, 8-inches tall. Kaitlyn also teased the cast member’s height on Instagram, joking that she only came up to his hip bone.
