‘Golden Bachelor’s Theresa Nist Gives Update on Mystery Romance After Gerry Turner Divorce

Nearly two months after The Golden Bachelor winner Theresa Nist confirmed that she’s been seeing a new man, she gave an update on her love life.

In June, Gerry Turner‘s ex-wife said on the Almost Famous podcast that she’d been on “several” dates with someone she met on a dating app. But where does she stand with the mystery man now?

“Nothing is solidified yet. I’m keeping my options open,” Nist told Us Weekly, adding that she’s “still talking” to the guy from earlier this year. “I want to take my time. I don’t want to rush into anything.” She previously revealed that she and her new man weren’t calling each other “boyfriend/girlfriend” just yet, which still seems to be the case.

“I’m really so happy with my life. I have so much,” Nist gushed. “I’m really blessed with my family and my friends and my work and my gardening and the stock market. I have so many things going on, so it’s fun.”

Nist was previously married to her first husband for more than 40 years before he died in 2014. She then tied the knot with Turner in January 2024, just months after they got engaged on The Golden Bachelor. The exes announced that April that they were divorcing.

Prior to meeting the new man in her life, Nist was in consideration for Season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise. However, she ultimately wasn’t selected for the cast because she was “wishy-washy” about whether she wanted to be on the show.

During the Almost Famous interview, Nist explained that she “wanted to go on the show,” then changed her mind before ultimately realizing, “Maybe I’m being foolish.” However, by the time she decided that she was ready to go for it, producers had moved on.

“Ultimately, they didn’t select me,” she shared. “Because I said I didn’t want to do it. They said, ‘This girl is not committed.’ So I think that’s the reason I’m not on the show.”
