When the news broke that Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, the beloved Golden Bachelor couple, were calling it quits, it was as if someone had canceled a season finale. To say fans were stunned is an understatement — it was the kind of plot twist that left even the most die-hard believers questioning if Turner’s intentions were as “for the right reason” as audiences all hoped. But were there hints along the way? Indeed, some eagle-eyed observers within Bachelor Nation couldn’t ignore certain forewarnings, despite their wishes for a fairy-tale ending.

In the midst of all this drama, Susan Noles, a familiar face to those who faithfully followed Turner’s season, brought a dose of unexpected humor and insight. At 67, she’s not just one of Turner’s memorable contestants; she also played a pivotal role in their love story by officiating the Golden wedding. Fast forward to now, at the QVC Women’s Summit in Las Vegas, she spilled some tea to Us Weekly. “They ruined my marriage thing. I mean, I had no divorces,” she joked, reminiscing about her previously untainted record of love matchmaking.

But Noles didn’t stop at light-hearted comments. She shared a more heartening update, saying, “Theresa and Gerry are doing good” post-divorce. It’s the kind of news that reassures fans that despite the end of their romantic storyline, the two Golden Bachelor contestants are finding their way forward, separately but positively.

Curiosity is only natural in Bachelor Nation, so when asked if she had any inkling about the impending split, Noles channeled her inner Kathy Swarts, another face from the Golden Bachelor saga, miming the universal “Zip it!” and sealing her lips.

This little nugget of an update from Noles is a bittersweet reminder that even in the world of hometowns and rose ceremonies, reality has its way of catching up. Yet, as Gerry and Theresa chart their new courses, the support from their circle — and indeed, the entire Bachelor Nation — remains unwavering. Because if there’s one thing this franchise has taught us, it’s that every ending is just the beginning of a new chapter.
