So, a new series has arrived for Bachelor Nation fans. For the first time, a 70-year-old woman wants to fall in love on a reality show on national television. We are talking about Gerry Turner. He is the protagonist of the golden bachelor, the latest addition to the Bachelor franchise. Unlike Bachelor and single in paradise which focuses on men and women between the ages of 20 and 30, the golden bachelorPremiering on ABC this fall, it follows Gerry as he meets women looking for love later in life.
And now, since the identities of those vying for Gerry’s heart have yet to be revealed, let’s talk about the late wife of leading man Toni Turner.
Meet Toni Turner, the late wife of Gerry Turner’s Golden Bachelor
Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner was previously married to his high school sweetheart, Toni Turner, who passed away in 2017.
The two are said to have married on February 13, 1972. They were probably together for 45 years until one of them passed away.
On exactly July 17, 2023, he thought about what he thought Toni would think of his bachelor affair. “She’s there cheering, saying, ‘Yeah, Gerry, do it,'” he said of his late wife. Also, he talked about the picture of her on the dresser in the closet. He said she nods to him every morning: “What do you think of this?” She said that for a while it was hard for him to know if she was going to be okay. But since they always said to each other ‘when one leaves, we want the other to be happy’, he knew what he had to do.
Toni is remembered as someone who would light up any room with her infectious laugh and huge smile. She enjoyed creative expression, whether it was crafts or flower arranging, and she loved sharing it with people. Also, she was an amazing cook and had many favorite dishes of hers.
They say it was nice meeting Toni. She always wanted everyone to be treated with kindness, to volunteer whenever possible, and to enjoy time with her family.
