Montgomery County Woman to Star as Contestant on ABC’s “Golden Bachelor”

ABC’s new Bachelor spinoff, “Golden Bachelor”, stars 72-year-old Gerry Turner– a retired restauranteur and widower from Indiana, who is looking for love on the new series that premieres on September 28, 2023. The show’s tagline is “it’s never too late to fall in love…again”, which refers to the contestants’ ages of 60 years young and up. One contestant vying for Gerry’s attention is Joan– a “private school administrator” from Rockville, Maryland. More on Joan, per “Golden Bachelor” below:

“Joan is really something special. She has four kids and two grandkids and is looking for love again after losing her husband of 32 years to pancreatic cancer. Joan is proud of herself for starting a new career in this chapter of life and for how resilient she’s been through many unexpected life changes. When she’s not working, Joan loves listening to Elton John, hanging with her dog, and cooking a delicious meal. Joan describes herself as a loving mother and a hard worker who would love to find someone with whom to enjoy life. She’s happiest when she’s at the beach with her family and is looking for a family man with whom to blend her life. Joan is a total catch, and we think Gerry will have no problem seeing it too. Fun Facts:
● Joan loves dancing after a couple glasses of wine.
● Joan enjoys historical museums.
● Joan’s favorite food is a big, juicy burger!”
