The Golden Bachelorette’s Joan Vassos isn’t just a sweet mom, grandmother, and influencer; she’s also a caretaker to her fiancé, Chock Chapple, as he recovers from eye surgery. Joan and Chock were The Golden Bachelorette season 1 winners, and they’ve been together since winning, showcasing their lives and planning for their futures as Bachelor royalty. Chock and Joan still haven’t announced any wedding plans, nor have they figured out where they’re going to live together, so they’ve been in a long-distance relationship and spending lots of time together until they’re ready to commit to their plans.
The Golden Bachelorette’s Joan Vassos and Chock Chapple opened up about his recent surgery and whether she’s helping take care of him.
Chock and Joan shared an Instagram Reel in which they caught fans up on their lives by taking questions, which they often do. As they sat together on a couch, Chock shared that he was uncomfortable because he had eye surgery the same day. Joan flew in to Wichita to help nurse him back to health. Before going over their plans for upcoming vacations and Joan’s favorite Wichita spots, Chock said that he’s “a little cranky” following his surgery. “I can’t see out of my right eye,” he admitted.
What Joan & Chock Spending Time Together After Surgery Means
Joan Is Chock’s Nurse
According to Chock, Joan flew in to Wichita specifically to help nurse him back to health following his eye surgery. Since it’s Chock’s second time having the surgery, he’s likely used to what the recovery process entails. Joan, being his dutiful partner, is right there by his side, even though he’s acting “a little cranky.” She is supportive of him, even laughing as he talked about how he was irritable, and defending him by saying he’s a trooper.
Joan probably has some experience being a caretaker, seeing as how she has four kids and two grandkids. Plus, she was with her late husband, John, throughout his pancreatic cancer journey. John passed away in 2021 after a two-year battle.
