‘The Golden Bachelor’ alums Kathy Swarts and Susan Noles share their dating limits and open up about what they’re looking for in men.
Golden Bachelor alums Kathy Swarts and Susan Noles are having a bit of a lull in their dating lives at the moment, but that’s not because they don’t have a wealth of opportunities!
“Right now we’re a little busy,” Noles, 67, tells Jennifer Hudson during the pair’s appearance on Tuesday’s episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show.
“I’ve had some young guys, like 35, 40 [in my DMs],” Swarts admits. But the 70-year-old reality star says she’s already “raised one guy” and isn’t interested in another. “I have children older than that,” she quips.
When Hudson asks the Golden Hour podcast hosts what age range they’re looking for when it comes to romantic partners, Swarts and Noles rule out anyone as young as 35 years old. “I’ll go 10 years younger,” Swarts says, which Noles agrees with.
“Unless he’s really, really special, then I’ll go down to 55,” Noles concedes.
But the pair has more than age in mind when it comes to what they want in their next partners.
“I’m done raising kids and all that — I want a guy who I can travel with and have fun with,” Swarts says. “And really, I want a guy like Morris [Chestnut], that can cook for me.”
Noles says that “for the first time ever,” she wants to be “treated like a queen.”
“I see other women and their spouses, and they put them on a pedestal,” she shares. “I want to know what that’s like, so it’s time for me.”
Noles and Swarts starred on the inaugural season of The Golden Bachelor, where they competed for Gerry Turner’s hand.
Turner, 72, ultimately proposed to, and married, Theresa Nist, 70, in a televised wedding ceremony that Noles officiated.
Nist is a financial services professional from Shrewsbury, New Jersey, while Turner, a retired restaurateur, lives in Indiana. After the pair got engaged, they told ET that they planned to call a new place home.
“On the first date, he spoke to me about possibly moving to the Charleston area. I said, ‘Well, wow.’ I have a son who lives in South Carolina. I said, ‘That would work,'” Theresa told ET. “It wasn’t until the Fantasy Suite that the conversation came back to that and we realized South Carolina is probably where we’re going.”
However, things took a turn in April when Turner and Nist announced their split after three months. And hours after the pair announced their split, Turner filed for divorce in an Indiana court. According to court documents obtained by ET, Turner cited an “irretrievable breakdown” as the reason for the split and listed April 12 as the date of separation.
