Married At First Sight Season 18: Michelle Tomblin’s Age, Job, Relationship History, Instagram, & More
Married At First Sight season 18 star Michelle Tomblin is known for her ambitions and desire to be independent, but there’s more than what meets the eye. Michelle joined season 18, hoping to find a life partner to help her grow professionally and personally. The MAFS season 18 cast member was eager to meet her soulmate and envisioned a perfect relationship. However, that didn’t happen. The experts matched Michelle with David Trimble, and their relationship hasn’t been the best despite seeming compatible on paper.
Their pairing has sparked concerns about past mismatches despite promises that season 18 would differ from the disastrous MAFS season 17. Just as Michelle thought she was starting a new chapter as a married woman, David revealed he lived in his parents’ basement. Despite being each other’s type, Michelle found it difficult to come to terms with David’s living arrangements; she was fixated on how unattractive that was, which made Michelle treat David differently. Here are some interesting facts about Michelle that might explain her personality.
Michelle’s Age
At the time of shooting MAFS, Michelle was 38 years old, but her exact birthday is still unknown, which makes it impossible to know her zodiac sign. MAFS season 18 casting happened in early 2023, with the final casting call sent in May 2023. Therefore, Michelle was born between 1984 and 1985. Astrology does influence how people view love and relationships and could explain why David’s living situation repulsed Michelle.
Michelle’s Job
Michelle is a jack of all trades. She has worked as an executive assistant at Hunt Club since January 2022. Michelle was also an executive assistant at X, formerly known as Twitter, according to her LinkedIn profile. Previously, Michelle worked as a paralegal at Swanson, Martin & Bell. The MAFS season 18 star started her career as a foster care caseworker at Lutheran Social Services, where she worked between March 2009 and October 2010. Michelle also has a Bachelor of Science in Sociology and Criminal Justice and received her paralegal certificate from Roosevelt University in 2011.
Michelle’s Relationship History
Michelle joined Married At First Sight, ready to find her soulmate after being single for six years. She is also open to having children or adopting if she can’t have her own children. Although Michelle and David’s relationship has had some rough moments, they still seem like one of those couples who might stay together on Decision Day.
David was excited for Michalle to join their family and was captured getting emotional by MAFS cameras (via MAFS Lifetime). He appears committed to making their relationship work. However, Michelle will have to work on herself and find a way of letting go instead of staying guarded since it initially sabotaged her relationship with David.

The Married At First Sight reality star has 845 followers, 202 posts, and follows 890 accounts.
