Golden Bachelor star’s secret heartache after death of ex-husband one year before show
Golden Bachelor contestant Faith Martin’s ex-husband tragically died unexpectedly in an accident last year.
Meet Gerry – The Golden Bachelor
The Golden Bachelor star Faith Martin is one of the 22 women trying to win the heart the first ever senior bachelor, Gerry Turner.
However, she dealt with a heartbreaking family tragedy only last year.
The 61-year-old high school teacher from Benton City, Washington, was married to her husband Brett Martin for 20 years before their split.
Brett worked as a nuclear chemical operator and died accidentally at aged 61 at his home in Benton City in August 2022.
His family were talking to him on FaceTime minutes before his death.
They called 9-1-1 and police arrived on the scene at around 10pm.
The coroners report, obtained by The Mirror explains that Brett “had been talking to some family members using Facetime when the fall occurred.”
He had fallen into a “deep outdoor window well.
Initially, he “declined to have help called for him,” but after several minutes, he started having difficulty breathing.
Then, Brett told his family on the phone to call for help.”
While still on FaceTime with him, Brett’s family “described him to be snoring and was no longer communicating a short time later.”
The report says that Faith was at the scene but it’s unclear when she arrived.
She was there with one of the former couple’s two sons Nick.
The investigator notes revealed that Brett’s family said he was “a heavy drinker and was a smoker; he also had hypertension” and that “this death appears to be accidental in nature, due to positional asphyxia.”
The report also noted “there were several black widow spiders in the window well.”
After losing Brett, Faith applied to be one of the 22 contestants on The Golden Bachelor, which premiered last week, and will compete for Gerry Turner’s heart.
Turner is a retired restaurateur who lives in his “dream house” on a lake in Indiana.
He a widower; his wife and childhood sweetheart, Toni Turner, passed away six years ago.
The pair had two daughters – Angie and Jenny – and two granddaughters – Charlee and Payton.
So, Turner and Faith will likely bond over their loss.
