The Golden Bachelor was a massive ratings success, but Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist’s marriage is a failure.
The estranged couple announced this morning on Good Morning America they are dissolving their marriage after less than 100 days.
“Theresa and I have had a number of heart-to-heart conversations, and we’ve looked closely at our situation, our living situation, so forth. And we’ve kind of come to the conclusion mutually that it’s probably time for us to dissolve our marriage,” Turner told Juju Chang.
So what went wrong? Nist explained, “We looked at homes in South Carolina, we considered New Jersey, and we just looked at homes after homes, but we never got to the point where we made that decision.”
Even though they are getting a divorce, they say they still love each other. It was just that neither one of them wanted to pick up their lives for the other one.
Is anyone surprised that it didn’t work out? I was surprised they actually went through with the wedding. I knew it was never going to last.
I think he likes women he can control. She might give off submissive vibes, but she is from New Jersey, and there is only some much shit she will take. And he, being from mid-America, was not used to someone like that. At least, that is what I am assuming.
Jenn Tran might have placed fifth on season 29 of The Bachelor, but she will be the one on The Bachelorette’s 21st season.
ABC announced yesterday, on After the Final Rose, that the 26-year-old will be the next Bachelorette.
Tran, who is Vietnamese, is the franchise’s first Asian suitor. “It’s honestly incredible and I feel so, so grateful and so honored to be the first Asian Bachelorette in this franchise,” she said. “Growing up, I’ve always wanted to see Asian representation on TV. I feel like it was really sparse. Anytime Asians were in the media, it was to fill a supporting character role, to fulfill some sort of stereotype, and I always felt boxed in by that because I was like, I don’t see myself on screen. I don’t see myself as a main character.”
This summer, she will see herself as the main character, which she never saw as a child, when several men try to win her heart.
Hopefully, she will find her soulmate.
And hopefully, Daisy Kent, who turned down Joey Graziadei and being the Bachelorette will also find her true love!
Tonight on The Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner proposed to Theresa Nist, and she said yes.
Since they are in their Golden years, the betrothed couple is not going to wait too long to say I do. So, on January 4th, we can watch their wedding live on ABC.
And then sometime later in the year, we can watch them on Divorce Court because you know it is not going to last.
Is it wrong that I kind of hope that I hope they break up before their nuptials? That would be a bigger event than if they do make it to their big day!
Yesterday was the premiere of The Golden Bachelor on ABC, and Gerry Turner got to meet the women who will be vying for his love.
One of the women was Sandra from Atlanta, and she was nervous to meet him. Therefore, she wanted to do her Zen practice to relax her, and she asked Gerry to do it with her.
Sandra took a few deep breaths, crossed her hands in front of her, released them, brought them back together, and said a calming word. However, we couldn’t hear the word because ABC censored what she said. So we were left to guess what she was slowly chanting.
Thankfully, The Golden Bachelor social media team didn’t want us to suffer, so they released the uncensored version. And now we know what they said. What was the magic word? It was fuck!
And now, I am rooting for Sandra to win!
Aunt Chippy was my first choice, but she slept through the ceremony and didn’t get a rose. Poor Aunt Chippy.
The Golden Bachelor premieres on ABC tomorrow, but Gerry Turner appeared on Good Morning America today to talk about it.
Lara Spencer had a lot of questions for the 72-year-old, and one of those questions was, did he find love? Due to his contract, he cannot specifically answer that question. So he told her, “Well, if I didn’t, would I be sitting here smiling, like, from ear to ear?” Not only was he smiling, but he was acting like a little boy in love.
So I think we have our answer. Hopefully, they will be one of the rare couples from The Bachelor franchise who actually make it.
