Michael has also posted several photos with Amanda’s daughters, whom she had with her first husband.
In August 2021, she was asked in an interview whether she was ready for Michael’s proposal. In response, she said:
In December 2021, he proposed to Amanda in their living room in the presence of her daughters. He even gave rings to the kids. On September 2, 2022, the couple got hitched in California.
The bride wore a Monique Lhuillier gown and walked down the aisle as Taylor Swift’s Wildest Dreams was playing. She stated that she wanted an “elevated modern garden wedding, very simple.”
Her 10-year-old daughter Kinsley was the maid of honor and 8-year-old Charlie was the flower girl.

Amanda rose to fame with The Bachelor Season 20 (2016) where Ben Higgins was the lead. She ranked fourth on the show and was sent home during the hometown week.
Prior to Ben, she was married to Nick Buonfiglio and had two daughters with him. After The Bachelor, she took another chance on Bachelor in Paradise Season 3, where she met Josh Murray. The duo got engaged on the show but parted ways in early 2017.
Amanda returned to Bachelor In Paradise the next season to give love another chance. She had a short relationship with co-star Robby Hayes, but their love story ended with the season.
Next was Bobby Jacobs, with whom she moved in during April 2020. But their relationship ended abruptly the same month. Amanda was briefly linked with Oren Agman in 2020 as well.
The Bachelor star finally found her soulmate in her friend Michael. The two got engaged last year in December and got married this month.
