Joan Vassos says she’s ‘taking a break’ from Golden Bachelorette for ‘family matters’

Joan Vassos shared that she took a brief break from being the Golden Bachelorette so she could go back to being her “favorite version of herself.”

The Golden Bachelorette’s leading lady, Joan Vassos, took a break from finding love to be “Jo Jo” for the weekend.

On Saturday, the 61-year-old ABC reality took to Instagram to share some adorable snaps alongside her grandson, Boomer, with her 78,300 followers.

In the first snap, a glamorous Joan – dressed in a black and white patterned blouse and skirt – cuddled up to her little one as they both beamed huge smiles for the camera.

Boomer, four, looked ever so trendy in blue denim jeans paired with a black sweater and white sneakers.

The next picture in the carousel post showed the duo enjoying a trip to a library.

Joan and her grandson looked in high spirits as they pulled funny faces for the third and final pic.

The Golden Bachelor spin-off female lead captioned the sweet set of pictures: “Took a break from being the Golden Bachelorette to be my favorite version of myself: Grandma aka Jo Jo.”

Fans were quick to compliment the reality star in the comment section, like user @theschumanteam_realestate, who gushed, ” JoJo is the cutest name!! I love the pics.”

As fan @debbie.tippit.clark shared: “What a cutie!! I’m hoping to be a grandma by next year!!!! ( I have 2 grown sons — one is married.)”

A third person, @bethlanda_, wrote: “He’s so adorable Joan!!” as fan @katina9455 echoed: “Booms is the BEST…beautiful picture.”

Fear not, Golden Bachelorette fans, as Joan’s quest to find love will indeed continue this week.

As hometown visits loom in the near future, Joan and her remaining men head into an exciting and crucial week of dates, including a helicopter ride, a fun-filled day of bowling, and a lavish yacht trip.
