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.
ABC is switching up The Bachelor this season. They are going with an older gentleman. Not as in, he is in his 40s, but Gerry Turner is 71.
If you are going to have a Golden Bachelor, then you can’t have 20-somethings vying for his love. So today, the network announced the 22 women whose ages range from 60-75 that are going to try to win Gerry’s heart.
The lucky ladies are:
Anna, 61, a retired nutritionist from Summit, N.J.
April, 65, a therapist from Port St. Lucie, Fla.
Christina, 73, a retired purchasing manager from Sierra Madre, Calif.
Edith, 60, a retired realtor from Downey, Calif.
Ellen, 71, a retired teacher from Delray Beach, Fla.
Faith, 60, a high school teacher from Benton City, Wash.
Jeanie, 65, a retired project manager from Estill Springs, Tenn.
Joan, 60, a private school administrator from Rockland, Md.
Kathy, 70, a retired educational consultant from Austin, Texas
Leslie, 64, a fitness instructor from Minneapolis, Minn.
Maria, 60, a health and wellness director from Teaneck, N.J.
Marina, 60, an educator from Los Angeles, Calif.

Susan, 66, a wedding officiant from Aston, Penn.
Sylvia, 64, a public affairs consultant from Los Angeles, Calif.
Theresa, 69, a financial services professional from Shrewsbury, N.J.
I have to admit, I am sold! I can’t wait to watch. Because the older you get, the less fucks you give. Therefore, their arguments are going to be so much hotter! Yeah, like hockey, I tune in for the fights. What is wrong with that?
Yesterday, The Bachelor world was shocked when they heard of the sudden passing of Josh Seiter, who competed on the 11th season of The Bachelorette. His death was announced on his verified Instagram page. And the press ran with it.
There is one problem with the story. He is NOT DEAD.
Today, he took to his page to declare he is alive and explained what happened. “Hey guys, as you can see, I am alive and well,” he said. “My account was hacked. For the last 24 hours, I’ve been trying desperately to get into it. Somebody was playing a cruel joke and mocking my mental illness and the struggles I’ve gone through with depression and suicide attempts, and I’m sorry for all the pain they’ve caused when they made that post. I just got back into my account. I am going to do all I can with my team to identify who was behind this. But again, I apologize for the confusion. And I will update you guys as more facts come in. Thank you, guys.”
This is the second fake death announcement made on Instagram. Almost three weeks ago, someone hacked Little Tay’s account and said that the viral star and her brother were dead. Thankfully, both of them are alive and well.
This, whatever it is, needs to stop because this is sick.
When ABC announced that they are doing a version of The Bachelor with seniors, I thought they were going to cast people in their 40s and 50s.
Today, on Good Morning American, they announced who will be the lucky man looking for love, and it is 71-year-old Gerry Turner.
Why does the retired restauranter from Indiana want to find a new wife? Because in 2017, he suddenly lost his wife after a short illness, who was also his high school sweetheart. He knows that she wants him to be happy. So he is finally ready to try his hand at happiness again.
Are his two daughters and two granddaughters happy for him? Very! However, they might be singing a different tune when they watch the dating show in the fall and see how much sex he is getting. I know I was traumatized when my dad told me about the first time he had sex with a woman after my mom passed away.
When it comes to Gerry, I think the Bachelorettes are all going to fight for him because he seems like a catch! But then again, has there ever been a season of The Bachelor where there isn’t a fight?
