The Golden Bachelorettestars Joan Vassos and Chock Chapple are having a tough time making their New York City dreams into a reality judging by their updates about the move amid breakup rumors and family drama. Joan, the star of The Golden Bachelorette season 1, was able to put heartbreak behind her as the lead of her own journey to find love. Meeting Chock wasn’t something Joan necessarily expected, but she was able to work through the difficulties of finding the second love of her life on screen and accepted his proposal at the end of the season, despite backlash.

In a new Instagram post, Joanshared that her recent trip to New York City with Chock and some other Bachelor Nation visitors was a fun time, but may not have brought them any closer to living in the Big Apple. Joan and Chock’s dream of moving to NYC may be slow, but they’re holding out hope. According to Joan, she’s “so grateful for all these beautiful new memories made with my fiancé and thank you to all our NYC friends for being the best!” Even so, she and Chock are looking for quicker progress on finding a home.

As Joan and Chock have moved through their time both during and after The Golden Bachelorette, rumors have flown about their relationship and what they’re both looking for as they move into the next chapter of their lives. The pair shared during the live finale of the season that they wanted to move to New York City, and have been looking for real estate ever since finally going public with their relationship. Joan and Chock’s continued search for a new space sounds tough but is proving to be the one thing keeping people invested in their relationship.

Joan and Chock may have faced backlash throughout The Golden Bachelorette season and in its aftermath, but their commitment to their move has proven the nay-sayers wrong about their love. Investing in a NYC property together is the one thing that’s saving them from all the breakup rumors, making it clear that the pair are interested in staying together for the long haul. Joan and Chock’s future New York City real estate may be something Bachelor Nation’s struggling to wait on, but it appears to be helping their relationship in the process of the wait and quieting the outside noise.

It’s Going To Be A Long Process

As Joan and Chock move through the difficult real estate search to find something that works for them and they agree on, Bachelor Nation is going to be kept waiting to hear about the progress. While both Joan and Chock have been open on social media about the search, it’s been clear that the pair are taking things slow and being cautious about their future. The couple have invested in each other, and their investment in NYC real estate will be just as important. The Golden Bachelorette pair are being impressively thorough about their future home.
