Angie Turner, the daughter of Golden Bachelor star Gary Turner, is sharing her thoughts about his recent split from Theresa Nist.
In a post on Instagram, Angie acknowledged the split between Gary and Theresa sparked a “range of emotions and opinions.” The couple had only been married for three months before calling it quits. They hadn’t even lived together yet.
“I love how invested people were in the show,” Angie pointed out about the Golden Bachelor fans. “What an experience to have you along for the ride!”
However, Angie stated it has been disheartening for her to see the level of rage and cruelty that her family has been met with since the divorce was announced.
“My Dad and Theresa are kind, good people that made this decision for them, no one else,” Angie wrote. “I kindly urge everyone to remember that behind every story, there are real people with real feelings.”
Angie went on to praise those who showed Gary, Theresa, and her family love and compassion during this difficult time. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart,” she added.
The post featured an image that reads, “Everything always works out in the end.”
During an appearance on Good Morning America earlier this month, Turner and Nist officially announced their plans to divorce.
“Theresa and I have had a number of heart-to-heart conversations, and we’ve looked closely at our situation – our living situation,” Gary explained. “And we’ve kind of come to the conclusion mutually that it’s time for us to dissolve our marriage.”
Since the airing of their wedding, the Golden Bachelor star and his bride had been living separately. He was still at his home in Indiana while she was in New Jersey.
