Why does everyone get so hung up on her age? Probably because she’s so poised. She’s got that “I’ve been to a few board meetings” energy, mixed with “I also know how to do a perfect smoky eye.”
She was 28 when she filmed Season 2. Twenty-eight! That’s prime “I know myself, but I’m still flexible” territory. And yet, people swore she was a decade older based on her savoir-faire with Salvador.
Here’s the truth: Mallory never lied about her age on the show. The producers didn’t hide it. But somehow, fans convinced themselves she must be older. Why? Because she was too good at handling drama. Too emotionally stable.

The “Old Soul” Trap
We love slapping the “old soul” label on people. But let’s be real—Mallory just has her act together. She’s got a career in marketing, a dog named Mabel, and a solid skincare routine. That doesn’t make her ancient; it makes her intentional.
Remember her explosive fight with Salvador? She cried. She yelled. Then she apologized like an adult. That’s not a 40-year-old move. That’s a 31-year-old who’s been to therapy. Or who reads self-help books on the treadmill. We stan that energy.
