The couple shared at the time how they were planning to marry in "the near future," maybe Summer 2022, but that apparently won't be happening.
When asked about tying the knot, Nayte told Us Weekly, "We said summer."
"We didn't put a timeline," he added.
However, Nayte said he and Michelle will probably wait to have their wedding once coronavirus restrictions are lifted.
"We were really talking about the [summer] season, but what I can say is we both have so many friends and family members and just people that we would want to be part of that day, so a pandemic wedding is not something that we're really looking at," Michelle revealed.
"It's gonna happen," she assured fans. "It's gonna be warm, but that's what we know so far."
Nayte, who is currently living in Austin, TX, also hasn't moved to Michelle's hometown of Minneapolis, MN, yet.
The 27-year-old sales executive said he and Michelle have been "looking at different options" and trying to be smart.
"We're definitely feeling it all out," Nayte said, before Michelle revealed they'll live together "eventually."

Before the couple settles down, they'd like to travel the world together and make new memories.
"That's a big thing," Nayte shared with the magazine, noting how he and Michelle would like to explore France soon together.
Just last month, Nayte brought Michelle home to the city where he was born and raised, Winnipeg, which is located in the Manitoba province in Canada.
After getting engaged last year, Nayte revealed on The Bachelorette: After the Final Rose that he planned to move to Minnesota in the next two or three months and the lovebirds had already begun house-hunting.
In fact, The Bachelor family gifted Michelle and Nayte a down payment on their first house together. (Michelle was caught whispering to Nayte on After the Final Rose that the check was for $200,000).
Michelle and Nayte proceeded to spend Christmas together in Minnesota.
Michelle gushed to People in December 2021 about how she and Nayte "have fun together" and can have deep conversations about controversial issues and more.
"We vent to each other, we check each other and make sure that we're positive," Michelle said. "We dance, sing, goof around, all of it."

Nayte echoed that sentiment and noted how their relationship just "flows" effortlessly.
"I've never met anybody even, like, remotely close to him because he just has so many layers," Michelle shared of her fiance. "And even now, like on a daily basis, I'm like, 'What did I do to deserve this? How did I get lucky?'"
"He tells me how he feels about me every day, multiple times," she added.
Michelle also told People, "I fall more in love every day."
"I was fortunate enough to grow up in a family with a healthy marriage and I thought, 'I'm not going to give up until I have that.' He's my person," she said. "And I didn't know I could love at this level."
And Nayte said he believes their relationship is going to last because they have the type of love everyone searches for.
"Every day, we'll just catch each other in just this, like, flow of emotion," Nayte said last year.
"It's just like, 'Holy crap, we are each other's. This is our life. This is actually forever.' We actually have a connection that is forever."
