ABC is set to premiere an exciting new chapter in the world of reality dating shows with “The Golden Bachelor,” where love takes center stage in the golden years of life. Gerry Turner, a retired restaurateur, loving father, and doting grandfather (learn more about granddaughter Charlee), is ready to embark on a journey to find lasting love at the age of 71. Set against the backdrop of his dream house on a picturesque lake in Indiana, Gerry’s life is a blend of barbeques, pickleball, sports fandom, and cherished moments with friends and family at local haunts.
Gerry’s story is one of romance and resilience. He married his high school sweetheart, Toni, in 1974, and together, they built a life filled with love and happiness. Their family expanded with the arrival of two daughters, Angie and Jenny, and later, two granddaughters, Charlee and Payton. Tragically, after 43 years of marriage, Toni fell ill and passed away in 2017, leaving Gerry with cherished memories and an unquenchable yearning for companionship.
Now, six years after Toni’s passing, Gerry is ready to open his heart once more with the unwavering support of his family. “The Golden Bachelor” promises to be a unique and heartwarming addition to the dating show genre. It is a celebration of love that transcends age, capturing the essence of finding love anew in the golden years.
