THE GOLDEN BACHELOR IS GETTING MORE THAN A DIVORCE

The Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner and his newlywed bride turned ex-wife Theresa Nist just finalized their divorce after a whirlwind courtship ending in a televised wedding. The ill-fated breakup took place in long distance (he lives in Indiana and she in New Jersey) and even though their divorce is complete, my source reveals that Theresa is now trying to ANNUL the marriage. It’s a lengthy and more complicated process, but long story short, Theresa just wants to put the entire fiasco behind her. There’s likely more to THIS split than meets the eye…

INTRODUCING THE GOLDEN BACHELORETTE

A very good source just whispered in my ear that The Golden Bachelorette will be… drumroll please… Joan Vassos. 61-year-old Joan was one of the sexy seniors who competed for Gerry’s heart on The Golden Bachelor. It’s just our opinion, but it seems like she dodged a major bullet there as Gerry’s final rose recipient, because the woman he chose, Theresa, ended their marriage after less than three months. Everyone connected to the reality show had to sign top secret contracts promising not to reveal that Joan was selected. The show is still casting eligible bachelors 60 and over to vie for Joan’s heart, and then filming is set to begin in early May.

BRACE YOURSELF FOR THE GOLDEN BACHELORETTE

ABC has been  in top secret negotiations with The Golden Bachelor, runner up Leslie Fhima, about becoming their first Golden Bachelorette. The Golden Bachelor was an unexpected ratings bonanza for the network and some fans were disappointed that Leslie didn’t get the final rose from Gerry Turner. ABC is airing Gerry and his fiancé Theresa Nist’s wedding on January 4, and their hope is to announce Leslie as Golden Bachelorette. Some important details need to be resolved first, but if all goes according to the plan, expect to see Leslie pop up at Gerry and Theresa‘s wedding and make her big announcement at the end of the two hour special.
