The Golden Bachelorette star Joan Vassos admitted that she develops anxiety when she posts things online and reads the comments. During The Golden Bachelorette season 1, Joan got engaged to Chock Chapple, and they’ve been happy together ever since, even though they’re in a long-distance relationship. Before Joan even began her season, she made it clear that she’d never leave her home in Rockville, Maryland, while Chock has responsibilities in his hometown of Wichita, Kansas, and has also chosen not to relocate. Because of this, Joan and Chock have decided to get a third place together in New York City.
Joan revealed that she gets anxiety when she reads the comments sections of her posts.
In an Instagram reel, Joan revealed that she gets anxiety when she reads the comments sections of her posts. Joan posted a video of herself lip-syncing to lyrics from Doechii’s “Anxiety,” which included, “Somebody’s watching me. It’s my anxiety.” In the clip, Joan rubbed her head in an anxious way and sighed. She captioned the clip, “Reading comments after I post on social media…” In the comments section of the post, many of her followers sent her messages of encouragement, including The Bachelor season 29 star Grant Ellis, who wrote, “Keep being you!”
What Joan Vassos Admitting She Has Anxiety Means For New Public Life
Joan Cares A Lot About What People Think
Joan’s admission that she has anxiety after posting on social media proves that she cares about what people think about her. She’s only been in the public eye for a relatively short amount of time, beginning with her debut as a contestant in Gerry Turner’s Bachelor season in fall 2023, and then starring in her own Golden Bachelorette season in fall 2024. Joan is probably still not used to receiving backlash and negativity for her posts.
Joan enjoys posting on social media about her life, but it’s clear that the harsh comments from people get to her at times. This has been a problem for many Bachelor Nation stars, as franchise fans sometimes seem to forget that they’re real people with real feelings. It’s very brave of Joan to admit that the comments on her posts give her anxiety, and it’s also very relatable.
Our Take On Joan Vassos Opening Up About Having Anxiety
Joan Is A Down-To-Earth Person
I think it’s very important that Joan has opened up about having anxiety due to her social media posts. Something that I’ve always liked about Joan is how vulnerable she is. She’s down-to-earth and unafraid to admit that she struggles at times. At 62 years old, she’s a wonderful role model because, as beautiful, successful, and intelligent as she is, she still admits that she has insecurities. However, as Grant said in her comments section, she should keep being herself because she’s perfect as she is.
While some people might argue that Joan could alleviate her anxiety by cutting back on her social media posts or even ceasing to share things online, I think that a better solution would be for the negative people to keep their comments to themselves. I’m always appalled to read harsh comments online. They’re unnecessary and cruel, and they put a damper on using social media. Joan should focus on her many positive followers and tune out the rest. Joan is a vibrant and vivacious woman, and I can’t wait to see what The Golden Bachelorette star posts next.
