‘Golden Bachelor’ couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist announce divorce

The Golden Bachelor couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist have announced their decision to get divorced, just three months after their televised wedding. The news was revealed on Friday’s episode of Good Morning America, where Turner shared that they had mutually agreed that it was time to dissolve their marriage.

Despite their dedication to their families, Turner and Nist felt that living apart would bring them more happiness. The couple, who met on the show and got engaged during the first season of The Golden Bachelor, had planned to move in together but never found a suitable home.

Both Turner, 72, and Nist, 70, emphasized that their decision to divorce was not due to falling out of love. They expressed their continued love and support for each other, even as they navigate this difficult time.

Having both been widowed before meeting, Turner and Nist remain hopeful that they will find love again in the future. They encouraged others to stay hopeful and not give up on finding love.

ABC has announced a spinoff of The Golden Bachelor called The Golden Bachelorette, featuring a female senior lead, set to premiere this summer. Despite their own relationship coming to an end, Turner and Nist are optimistic about the future and wish the best for each other as they move forward separately.
