I’m convinced Joan Vassos will not find true love on The Golden Bachelorette

The Golden Bachelorette Season 1 recently premiered, and I’m already convinced that Joan Vassos won’t find love during her season of the Bachelor Spin-off. I didn’t want to feel that way. On the contrary, I wanted Joan to find true love, if only to cleanse my palate of what happened during Gary Turner’s The Golden Bachelor Time. I told myself that Joan was better at succeeding in this process because she was more emotionally available than Gary was, but now I can see clearly that I was lying to myself.

No one could blame me for harboring high hopes for Joan. She made her television debut during the golden guy, And although she hit it off with Gary, she had to leave the show early due to a family emergency. Her daughter had just given birth and needed her mother, but, in hindsight, There may have been more to Joan’s early exit than wanting to be with her daughter. Read on to find out why I’m convinced The Golden Bachelorette Season 1 will end just as badly as The Golden Bachelor.

Joan already adjusted expectations

It won’t be another golden wedding

I don’t think so The Golden Bachelorette Season 1 will deliver on the promise of happily ever after, and it’s not because Joan doesn’t have plenty of great men to choose from. The show premiered recently, and, as usual, the episode ended with scenes from future episodes. The clips, what Bachelor Folk Posted on YouTube, have a dazzling array of believe dates – there are some thrilling and romantic moments. Although Joan is so happy In all the promotional materials for the series, I remain unconvinced.

In May, Joanne said CNN That she would not rush into marriage. She said it’s not entirely because of Gary and Teresa – she just feels people need more time to get to know each other. She went on to say that she hopes ABC does The Golden Bachelor in Paradise. “Oh, my god. I want to be on it!“Joan stated. Then, catching up, she added, “Hopefully, I will have a husband and not (be) suitable.“John was Speaking of appearing on another unscripted dating show, Which is what I believe Fans can forget about another Golden Bachelor Wedding special.

Joan is not over her late husband

She is not ready for love

The main reason I do not believe that The Golden Bachelorette Season 1 will end with a successful marriage is that Joan doesn’t seem to be over her late husband yet. years before joining the cast of the golden guy, Joan was married to John Nicholas Vassos for 32 years. In 2021, he died due to pancreatic cancer. The season premiere episode opens with Joan talking about John, and I just get the feeling she’s not ready to move on.

John didn’t want John to spend the rest of her life with him, and Jason may not want to spend the rest of her life with him, but I don’t think she’s ready to move on yet. Joan talks a lot about how John made her feel safe During their entire relationship. Although many of the people Joan’s dating seem to be great catches, I can’t imagine Joan thinking that any of them could fill John’s shoes.

Is the Golden Bachelor brand cursed?

I hope Joan proves me wrong

The Golden Bachelor Season 1 ends with Gerry marrying Theresa Nist, But the marriage ended after only three months. Although the couple loved each other, they could not figure out how to reconcile their lives. They lived in separate states and did not want to leave behind the lives they’d spent decades building. Although Gary and Theresa tried to see each other regularly, they were not satisfied with a long-distance marriage, so they called it quits.

When people are in their 60s, they have established whole lives. Maybe I’m cynical, but it’s hard to imagine anyone Approaching their lives to be with someone they dated for a few weeks on a reality TV show. Consider Joan’s links The Golden Bachelor To be with her daughter when her grown child needed her, she made it clear that she put her family first. I strongly believe that any relationship Joan develops on The Golden Bachelorette Is probably doomed, but I really hope I’m wrong.

The Golden Bachelorette Season 1 airs Wednesday nights at 8 PM on ABC.
