Michael Sullivan was known as Mountain Brook’s most eligible bachelor (according to Bravo TV) before meeting the love of his life Jaime Primak, star of new reality show Jersey Belle. Let’s get to know all about Michael, how he met Jaime, why he won’t move to New Jersey, his job, and what he and Jaime fight over on and off the show.
1. Michael’s Job Prevents Him From Moving to Jersey
Though Michael is not a big fan of New Jersey, it’s mainly his job that keeps him from being able to move to New Jersey, though his wife tries to persuade him to move as much as she can. Starcasm writes:
Jaime Primak Sullivan’s husband Michael Sullivan, 51, is a state lobbyist who heads up The Lobbyist Group, with high-powered clients ranging from the National Rifle Association to the Title Pawn Council of Alabama … Some of Michael’s other former clients were gaming machine manufacturers Bally Gaming and Nova Gaming, who came under scrutiny in 2010 as part of “an FBI investigation of possible vote buying on legislation to expand electronic bingo,” according to TimesFreePress.com.
Jaime says she never stops asking Michael to move up North, but his job keeps him in Alabama. Plus, he’s not a big Jersey fan. Jaime tells NJ.com:
He’s, like, horrified by our people, Sullivan says. On visits to Jersey, she says, he’s a wallflower, says nothing for four days.
In the above video, Michael is questioned by the media outside a courthouse after a hearing in regards to Bally Gaming and Nova Gaming.
2. Jaime Thought Michael Was Too Old For Her When They Met

The way Jaime and Michael met is very cute. NJ.com tells the story as this:
Her romance began when she stopped in a cafe while in Birmingham for a client’s magazine job. A man bought her a drink. “I thought he was handsome,” she says, but maybe too old. When he asked for her phone number, she said no. Exactly a year later, they found each other at the same cafe. “Do you remember me?” he asked. She did, and they went to dinner. “I called my mom after,” Sullivan says. “I think I just had dinner with the man I’m gonna marry,” she told her.

3. Having More Children Is Up For Debate With Michael And Jaime

Michael and Jaime have three children – one boy and two girls, but Jaime wants to have another. On this season of Jersey Belle, Jaime expresses to Michael that she wants another, but he is standing firm that he’s too old to start all over again. Do you think they’ll end up having another kid?
In addition to arguing about having a baby, they have little quarrels about Jaime’s behavior. Clearly, Michael fell in love with the whole package that is Jaime, but there are a few times that her mouth can get her in trouble. Michael reluctantly asks Jaime about an encounter with a pregnant woman on the street, where she asked the woman “if she was keeping it.” When Jaime confirms the story, an upset Michael replies, “Only you.” This is just one of the many little things that entertain us about this couple.

Michael dated Jaime for two years in a long-distance relationship before asking her to marry her. While Jaime was worried that a move to Alabama would wreck her career in the entertainment industry, she kept her Beverly Hills number and travels a lot. Starcasm reports:
Jaime and Michael have been married for seven years and have three young children: 6-year-old daughter Olivia, 5-year-old son Max, and 3-year-old daughter Charlie.

According to Jaime Primak, Mountain Brook is stuck in the 1950’s, but Michael is a Mountain Brook native and calls it home. Mountain Brook is an affluent city within the Birmingham Metropolitan area and is also one of America’s wealthiest communities. Wikipedia writes:
Mountain Brook is often referred to as “The Tiny Kingdom” due to its reputation as an enclave for the area’s elite and the disparity of wealth between it and City of Birmingham where nearly a quarter of the population lives below the poverty line, according to Census data. Mountain Brook is the hometown of actors Wayne Rogers, Kate Jackson, and Courteney Cox, and former Green Bay Packers quarterback Bart Starr.
