Michelle first hinted that she was in a relationship on April 20 after holding a Q&A session for her fans on her Instagram. At the time, she noted that she was dating “someone amazing.”
Since then, Michelle and Aaron have made their love connection public, and they couldn't be happier. So, who exactly is the mystery guy that Michelle decided to try love again with? Here's everything we know about Aaron, including all the details about his career and how he met The Valley cast member.
During a May 16 Instagram Live, Michelle revealed that she met Aaron at a local coffee shop after she and Jesse’s daughter, Isabella Bunny Lally, began to wave at her now boyfriend.
“And so they had a little interaction from far away and I didn’t see it,” Michelle recalled at the time. “And then I got my coffee and then left, and Aaron and I actually didn’t speak. And then it must’ve been maybe a couple of days or a week later, he saw us again and then it was kind of the same thing. So, Isabella was actually the introduction and it was just very natural.”
Aaron who also joined Michelle on her Live, deemed the sweet moment “the cutest love story of all time.”
They went on their first date a couple of months after Michelle’s split from her estranged but didn’t confirm their relationship until April 2024. On June 17, Michelle made things Instagram official with Aaron by posting a photo of them two hitting the red carpet for the premiere of the new movie, The Bikeriders.
As Michelle describes it, her bond with Aaron has been "amazing ever since."

Michelle Lally and Aaron Nosler’s relationship is getting “serious”
Though Michelle and Aaron have only been dating for a few months, the mom of one assured things are already heating up between them. “It is serious,” she confirmed in a May interview with The Daily Dish.
"I think [given] his age, he's kind of ready to find a serious relationship, and he knows that I am going through what I am going through, and I didn't know what was going to happen," she said. "I was happy being alone and single. I'm not really dating a bunch of people; I'm not that type of person."
Who is Michelle Lally’s estranged husband, Jesse Lally?
Before meeting Aaron, Michelle was married to The Valley's Jesse Lally. They were together for nearly six years before officially separating in October 2023.
While appearing on the May 22 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Jesse shared his opinion on Michelle’s new boyfriend after meeting him at their daughter’s birthday party.
"I have [met him], and I like him. He's nice," Jesse said of Aaron on WWHL. "I invited him and Michelle over for Isabella's fourth birthday party like two or three weeks ago, and they were actually the last to leave. It was nice."
