Meet Brandon Young, Selling Sunset Star Nicole Young Husband
Brandon Young started dating Nicole Young at least in 2014. It was also the year the two documented their ski trip in Tahoe.

The next year, the lovebirds got married on April 22 in Thailand. “4.22.17 was the best day of my life, not because our epic wedding was the best party we’ve ever thrown, but because it was the day I became your wife and the day we became a family,” the Selling Sunset star wrote on her IG.
Also, she revealed that life “certainly tested our marriage through a horrifically painful tragedy,” but she’s happy to have “survived stronger and more bonded” than ever. “I would have crumbled without you. I love you even more than the day I married you…best decision of my life,” she added.
Now, the two are already six years into marriage and are happier than ever.
Infact, Nicole’s the happiest as she’s landed herself a spot on Selling Sunset — after working with the Oppenheim Group for over a decade. “It’s felt like something that has been coming for so long that it almost feels a bit surreal that it’s just a couple of days away,” Nicole said, ahead of the Season 6 premiere. “So I’m really excited to see what viewers think and how everyone takes it.”
Furthermore, the star confessed that she was excited and nervous at the same time as her life might change after the premiere. “That’s something I can’t even fathom right now,” she said. “I’ll be honest, that scares me a little bit.”
