Love, Lies & BETRAYAL

WILL THE WEDDING STILL HAPPEN NOW THAT THERESA KNOWS THE TRUTH ABOUT GERRY?

- Rick Egusquiza

Some things are too good to be true! When The Golden Bachelor debuted this fall, it presented Gerry Turner as a successful retired widower who hadn’t had a date since the death of his wife, Toni, in 2017. “You’re not just a gentleman, you’re a gentleman,” said Sandra, one of the women he wooed on the reality series.

While Gerry appeared more mature, sensitive and emotionally in tune than The Bachelor franchise’s usual young studs, a whirlwind of lies he told about his background made headlines a day before Theresa Nist, 70, accepted his proposal of marriage. He has not only dated since Toni’s death, he actually lived with a woman. And although he presented himself as retired, he’s actually been working as a maintenance man. “Gerry has money, but he’s not as financially well off as he claimed,” says an insider.
