When Mindy Shiben joined the Married At First Sight season 10, she wanted to find her soulmate, but she didn’t; so what has Mindy been up to since the season ended? While couples in real-life situations tend to heavily scrutinize their partners before tying the knot, that’s not the case in Married At First Sight. Here, the duo gets married on their first interaction, resulting in an experimental wedding. That was Mindy’s journey when she became part of MAFS season 10. Her relationship with Zach Justice makes them one of the most memorable MAFS couples.
The experts, especially Dr. Viviana Coles, thought Zach, a fitness professional, and Mindy, a figure skating coach, would make a perfect match due to their active lifestyles. However, Zach felt differently. The duo struggled to connect. During their honeymoon, Mindy felt like Zach had already friend-zoned her. The MAFS contestants drifted further apart as the show progressed. His flirtatious nature with her friends drew a wedge between them, so it wasn’t surprising when the pair ended their relationship on Decision Day. Mindy moved on, and here’s what she has been up to since the show.
Mindy & Zach’s Married At First Sight Journey
When Zach and Mindy met at the altar, they seemed attracted to one another and were excited to be matched. However, it didn’t take long for the tables to turn, showing how incompatible the couple was. Mindy and Zach had terrible communication skills. Zach would barely answer Mindy’s questions. His responses hardly fit into what she had asked. To be fair, Mindy appeared to be interrogating Zach, something he wasn’t comfortable with.
Her questions revolved around how he felt about her, where she fits in his life, and whether he worried about whether he was presenting himself as the “right one” for her. He’d often answer these questions hesitantly, something Mindy disliked. She had all the right to do so, considering that later, Zach confessed to not being attracted to her. Maybe the MAFS reality star felt the energy between them was off, prompting these questions.
Despite Mindy’s efforts to learn more about Zach, he made zero effort to get to know her. Sadly, Zach did seem to find the love of his life at their wedding – Lindsay – Mindy’s close friend and bridesmaid. The two had exchanged messages behind Mindy’s back. When that revelation came to light on MAFS, it made sense why Zach’s connection with Mindy was shaky. Eventually, the couple divorced.
Mindy Is In A Relationship With A MAFS Alum
Luckily, Mindy found love, and thankfully, it was not with Zach. As fate would have it, Mindy’s life partner was another show alum from a different season -Steve Moy. Steve appeared on Married At First Sight season 14 and started dating Mindy after his relationship with Noi Phommasak ended. The couple became Instagram official on February 4, 2023.
Mindy posted a picture of the pair and captioned it, “I had fun.” Mindy and Steve are still growing strong. Steve posted a carousel of images on his Instagram page on July 2, celebrating Mindy’s birthday in Yosemite National Park. The MAFS season 14 star gushed about his partner, saying he looks forward to the next birthday “like always.” These two were meant for each other, and it is incredible to see their love story unfold.
What Does Mindy Do For Work?
Mindy is a data scientist and visualization expert. The Married At First Sight star shared the exciting news on her Instagram account on March 29, 2023, writing in part that she had “explored a brand new career field.” Mindy’s LinkedIn profile shows she also has a background in linguistics, athletics training, and health sciences.
She has worked as a data scientist and senior consultant at Booz Allen Hamilton since September 2022. Booz Allen deals with cybersecurity, digital solutions, engineering, analytics, and consulting. Mindy has some incredible skills that make her an ideal addition to the company, including natural language processing (NPL) and machine learning, and she is also proficient in different computer languages, such as Python.
Mindy Stays Active
Mindy loves nature. She has posted pictures and videos of herself and Steve visiting the zoo and the beach and building sand castles. The couple recently went to Yosemite National Park for her birthday. In the past, Mindy has also posted pictures of herself kayaking and bungee jumping and participated in an endurance event. The former Married At First Sight star doesn’t look like she will be slowing down soon since exercising is part of her DNA.
