Michelle was born on August 12, 1992 to Zoraida Feliciano and Felix Rodriguez. She is reported to be a native of Ponce in Puerto Rico but was raised in San Antonio, Texas.

Over the years, Michelle has proven to be Ryan's biggest supporter.

The couple's wedding came only about eighteen months after Ryan suffered a devastating back injury which left doctors skeptical about whether he would be able to walk again or not.

However, much to everyone's surprise, Ryan was soon back on his feet and even danced to "This Is How We Do It" by Montell Jordan on his wedding day.

Over the years, Michelle has proven to be Ryan's biggest supporter and with love between them, there is no doubt that they can overcome any challenge together.
