The Golden Bachelor star Theresa Nist could be finding happiness in a whole new way with a new job, and at the same time, she’s rubbing her happiness in ex Gerry Turner’s face after their split. Theresa, featured on The Golden Bachelor season 1 as a front-runner for Gerry from early on, has been doing her best to rebuild her life after her split from the lead. While Theresa and Gerry’s relationship wasn’t something she took lightly, the serious nature of their romance was quick to form and quick to break, with the pair divorcing after three months of marriage.
While Gerry and Theresa had a sweet connection on The Golden Bachelor, their time together was short-lived. After Gerry’s reputation took a turn and the couple tried to clean things up by participating in a live TV wedding at the request of The Bachelor franchise, their connection seemed to fizzle out a bit quicker than either realized it would. Gerry and Theresa announced their divorce just three months after their wedding, and while both seemed to find it emotional and difficult, the pair weren’t looking to dwell on the drama. Theresa, specifically, has moved on to greener pastures quite quickly.
Theresa Is Clearly Happier Without Gerry
She’s Focused On Herself & Her Family
After her split from Gerry, Theresa has found herself healthier, happier, and looking forward to the future in a whole new way. A widow from her previous marriage, Theresa likely found it difficult to face divorce, especially from a whirlwind romance that seemed like it would last forever. Though her relationship with Gerry was short-lived, Theresa has made it clear she’s been able to find her purpose without The Golden Bachelor star. Instead of dwelling on her failed marriage, Theresa has been focusing on herself, her family, and rebuilding her relationships with them to be stronger than they’ve been before.
With her social media posts focusing on her family and her own identity, Theresa knows herself better than she ever has. Though facing so much heartbreak in the public eye was tough, Theresa likely has an appreciation for what she went through after her time on The Golden Bachelor. By going through a hardship, the happier moments are so much more for her.

Finding herself able to participate in things she hadn’t been part of in the past, Theresa has been moving on specifically by helping her daughter, Jen Woolsten, out with her business venture. In her new “job”, Theresa has been able to work with Jen as the assistant with her photobooth business at weddings and other events. Bringing joy to happy occasions, Theresa’s finding herself happily busy.
