‘The Bachelorette’ Alum Nayte Olukoya Is Dating a New Girlfriend — Meet Allyssa Malony

For quite some time, former The Bachelorette contestant Nayte Olukoya has been silent about his love life.

As a result, many asked questions like, “Who is Nayte Olukoya dating now?” and “Are Michelle and Nayte still together,” referring to his former partner, Michelle Young.

On Valentine’s Day 2024, Olukoya revealed that he was dating his new girlfriend, Allyssa Malony. He hard-launched their relationship with a carousel of photos of the couple as well as some solo shots of Malony.

In the caption, he wrote the lyrics of ‘Sweet’ by Teezo Touchdown. “Honestly, you’re too good for me. Honestly, we’ll last about a week. Honestly, my life is sour. But when I’m with you everything’s sweeeeeeeeeeeet,” he captioned.

In the end, he wrote how his new girlfriend would hate half of the photos he uploaded, but he liked them, so he posted those. He also posted it on his stories and penned, “When I found out that she’s 30% Nigerian, I knew it was a wrap!”

Malony is an influencer, social media manager, and User-Generated Content (UGC) creator who hails from Philadelphia but currently lives in Los Angeles.

She wrote on her website, “I am passionate about creating visually aesthetic imagery and/or videos related to lifestyle, travel, beauty, fashion, and health/wellness, but love taking on any project!”

“I aim to serve as a trustworthy customer resource while partnering with brands to provide engaging content of the highest caliber to win over consumers and boost sales,” she continued.

So I combined the two and started Assylla Media LLC a social media management and marketing for sm(all) businesses.”

“Working with all types of people and businesses, I’ve been able to showcase my abilities and do something I love every single day (and yes, every single day) because I think of my business as my baby and it doesn’t matter if its the weekend, holiday, birthday, etc. I have showed up for my business every day for the last two years!” she added.

She never thought she would continue doing it but currently, she is settled in LA with a full-functioning agency. It is unknown when Olukoya and Malony started dating but it looks like they have been together for quite some time.

Before he began dating his new girlfriend, Olukoya was together with his former partner, Young. The pair announced their break up after dating for six months via Instagram.

They wrote a lengthy statement on Instagram Stories talking about their break up. Young wrote, “I’m struggling to say that Nayte and I will be going our separate ways, but I stand with him in knowing the heaviness that is present in both of our hearts as this relationship has been very real for us.”

He also wrote, “Hearts are heavy, emotions are high, and we are dealing with this the best way we can… We genuinely fell in love, and we genuinely became each other’s best friends. Michelle and I will always cheer each other on, but moving forward, we will be cheering from a distance.”
