“Most people see me on the outside as this stunning, tall model, and, sadly, they always judge a book by its cover,” she told the outlet. “I am truly such a people person and always try to do better for this world, whatever it might be. I always say to myself I need to do one nice thing a day for a person!”

Elise Found a Connection With Rob on ‘90 Day: Hunt for Love’
During the May 2025 premiere of 90 Day: Hunt for Love, Elise quickly scored the first kiss of the season with Rob, who was known for his marriage to estranged wife Sophie Sierra.
“A lot of people know me as the wild fun party girl. If I want something, I’m gonna go get it and I’m not scared to get it,” she introduced herself to viewers in a confessional. “So, when Rob took off his mask, and I was in complete and utter disbelief how beautiful his eyes were and how much kind of swag he actually had under the mask. He’s kind of toxic, manipulative, swaggy.”

After the steamy moment aired, Elise spilled tea to In Touch exclusively about the kiss and said Rob didn’t tell her he was “technically still married” at the time of the makeout.
“So initially I did not know, I’ve never seen 90 Day Fiancé before,” Elise explained on May 28, 2025. “I did not know he was even on a show.”
Although Rob eventually confessed to Elise that he was married to Sophie, she said he didn’t share many details beyond that.
“He had told me he was with Sophie. I don’t know if he specifically said her name. He had told me he was with her,” she recounted. “I didn’t really know that much. I heard it was not a good split and that’s kind of all I had known.”

Elise also defended herself against backlash over her bold move of tempting Rob with the size of her backside. She called the “diarrhea of her mouth” being sparked due to her being “super nervous” the first night. The newcomer also revealed she would love to find her perfect match, insisting she genuinely came on the show “looking for love.”
“I have a ton of girlfriends and guy friends that have been on reality shows and they had great experiences and some actually found love and I was like, ‘You know what, why not give this a shot?’” she explained. “Like the Miami dating pool’s horrible. I genuinely want to get married. I want kids like I thrive in a relationship. So I was going on there for love.”
