Golden Bachelor star Theresa Nist has already poked fun at the paparazzi photos of herself taking out the trash.
Golden Bachelor’s Theresa Nist might’ve wanted to do much more than poke fun at her recent paparazzi photos.
Last week, the mother-of-two was photographed looking downcast as she took the trash out in her pjs at her home in New Jersey weeks after she and husband Gerry Turner announced their decision to divorce.
Shortly after the media shared the photos, Theresa took to Instagram to poke fun at and recreated them.
Wearing a pretty floral mini dress as she posed holding a trash can, Theresa pulled a faux sad face.
She captioned the post with: “The Golden Bachelor star Theresa Nist was seen taking out her trash inside her office.
“Theresa wore a short dress from Zara and a hint of berry lipstick to do the chore but left her cell phone on her desk. This was the second time Theresa was spotted since she and Gerry announced their divorce.”
Theresa was obviously making fun of the headlines that featured the original paparazzi photos.
However, according to a source, Theresa meant for the snaps to throw shade at Gerry.
An insider told Life & Style: “Theresa never wanted a divorce. That wasn’t part of the plan. She says Gerry put on a facade for the cameras.”
“He can be very sensitive and pour on the charm, but he’s also missing a chip when it comes to reality and reality TV.”
“That’s why she posted the photo of her taking out the trash – she’s done with him,” the insider added. “It was shady, but honest. Theresa has moved on from Gerry and the lies he told her.”
Fans were quick to flood the comment section of Theresa’s post and agreed with the source that the photos were meant to throw shade at Gerry.
One user asked: “I love Theresa… but why the shade? I thought her and Gary were still friends? :/” (sic)
As a second wrote: “This is sad. First an immediate marriage followed by immediate divorce followed by calling a man you said you loved trash. And, everyone is loving it. Nothing about this says happy dance to me.”
Another fan saw the funny side of Theresa’s post: “This is exactly how you handle the media.”
Yet another clarified: “I knew exactly what she was doing with this post! Amazing humor poking fun at the ridiculous updates the media is reporting on. Well done. #this is not about undermining Gerry or the marriage. Hilarious!”
A third echoed: “For everyone getting on her it wasn’t shade toward Gerry, it was towards the media who took pictures of her taking out her trash at home and writing an article about it.”
During their appearance on Good Morning America weeks ago, Gerry said: “Theresa and I have had a number of heart-to-heart conversations.”
“We’ve looked closely at our living situations and we’ve kind of come to the conclusion mutually that it’s time for us to dissolve our marriage,” he added.
“The things that strike me the most in our conversations it’s been how dedicated both of us are to our families. So, we look at these situations and I think we just feel like it’s best for the happiness of each of us to live apart,” he explained.
“I still love this person, there’s no doubt in my mind. I root for her every day.”
