The Golden Bachelorette’s Joan Vassos Reveals If Gerry Turner Wanted To Rekindle Relationship Amid Signs She & Chock Will Break Up
The Golden Bachelorette star Joan Vassos talked about whether The Golden Bachelor'sGerry Turner wanted to resume their relationship after his divorce from Theresa Nist. Joan left Gerry's season early to respond to a family emergency. A year later, she got engaged to Chock Chapple at the end of The Golden Bachelorette season 1. Although Joan and Chock's long-distance relationship has been seen as a sign that they might break up soon, they're searching for a place in New York City together. As for Gerry, he recently revealed that he's been diagnosed with an incurable form of bone marrow cancer.
When asked if Gerry wanted to get back together with her after his divorce from Theresa, Joan gave a very blunt response.
On the Two Jersey Js podcast, Joan shared that she "had a connection" with Gerry during The Golden Bachelor, but they now have a "really good friendship." She explained, "We are really good friends still. We stay in touch." When asked if Gerry wanted to get back together with her after his divorce from Theresa, Joan answered, "I'm not gonna comment."
What Joan Vassos Refusing To Talk About Gerry’s Intentions Means
Joan's Lack Of An Answer Is An Answer In Itself
Joan's refusal to answer whether Gerry wanted to rekindle their romance is a response in itself because if the answer was no, she most likely would've just said it. She probably wants to keep silent about it out of respect for everyone involved, especially her friends Gerry and Theresa, and her new fiancé, Chock. It's admirable that Joan isn't revealing any details about what Gerry might've said to her.
When Joan returned for Gerry's Golden Bachelor "Women Tell All" episode, she admitted that, after she left the show, she hoped that she'd come home to find that he'd followed her. She even tried to return to the show, but it didn't work out. However, Joan and Gerry stayed in touch and became great friends. Gerry later appeared on The Golden Bachelorette to give Joan advice about her journey. It seems that they got the closure they needed after their Golden Bachelor breakup in order to move forward with their friendship.
Our Take On Joan Vassos Forming "Really Good Friendship" With Gerry
Joan & Gerry Have A Special Connection
Although Joan and Gerry are now just friends, it's intriguing to think about Gerry's advice for Joan from when he appeared in her Golden Bachelorette season. He asked her if she'd considered the possibility that her guy wasn't there. Perhaps Gerry said this because he thought that maybe he could be the man for her. However, this is just speculation.
It's beautiful to know that Joan and Gerry are still friends, especially now that he's been diagnosed with cancer. He'll certainly need the support of his friends and family as he moves forward with this new reality in his life, and The Golden Bachelorette star can definitely be a part of his support system. While it's always intriguing to think about what might have been, Joan's future is with Chock, but she can always be good friends with Gerry.
