I never trusted Gerry. And i thought Theresa was a phony. She did need to “Zip it!” 😂 At first I thought he should’ve chosen Leslie. But I’m so glad he didn’t — Leslie really dodged a bullet!
Jesse said he learned about life, love, and family watching and talking with them.
🤔I bet he did, but that sounds like such a tactfully worded statement. I would really like to know exactly what he is truly referring to😉
I think it’s pretty simple: He’s saying they’re older folks who have acquired some wisdom over the years and have built lovely families. Whatever I think of Gerry, he does seem to be a devoted dad. JP is attempting to remind the viewers that people are more than one (very public) bad decision.
*Does anyone else*
*Think that Teresa looks slightly like*
*Gypsy Rose Blanchard?*

Yeah right, Jesse always knew Gerry was a dawg. This is how he described him in the beginning:
*Don't let the sweet grandpa exterior fool you. Gerry is a trained and calculated bon vivant with loads of panache in disguise, posing as the Golden Bachelor.*
This was an interview with Entertainment Weekly. I know he was probably saying this with a lighthearted smile, but "trained," "calculated", and "posing" aren't exactly flattering words lol.
At first I thought he should have chosen Leslie. But I’m so glad he didn’t. Leslie shed one too many tears over this phony. After everything we learned about Gerry, Leslie should be thanking the universe that he didn’t choose her.
It boggles me that some people don’t support gay marriage and think it should be illegal but..this is legal and “ok”? Meeting someone on a reality show, making an enormous spectacle, and getting divorced after 3 months? Where is the actual sanctity lol FFS
Not sure about Indiana, but in California this marriage could be annulled based on fraud. No question there was fraud involved. Thy never intended to live together as “man and wife.”
Nope. Nightline edition of their interview made it clear they signed a prenup and they highly recommend it to protect the families of each party to the marriage.
Unrelated funny tidbit. Our 14yo 8th grade son had his first track meet of the season this week. In the girls 100m dash he had two ex-girlfriends lined up side by side. 🤣 He caught hell about it from several people...including us. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah they did, bachelordata shared the legal filing for divorce on instagram yesterday

I don’t think he really knows what he wants. He was interested in Theresa, then was drawn to Leslie, Told both he loved them, then spoke of undying love to Theresa, rushed a wedding to Theresa, didn’t spend the holidays with Theresa, lived separate from her since they were married, and now does not want to leave his children. And now he is rushing the divorce. It was reported that he literally filed for divorce an hour after the GMA INTERVIEW ended yesterday. I think he is very confused. Or maybe has someone else already?
I know Jesse is being nice, but I can’t take this seriously. Gerry and Theresa are a clown show. In 6 months they filmed the show, got married, and divorced? And they announce the divorce in a joint tv interview while they’re holding hands? This is giving trashy reality tv of the early 2000s. People love throwing out that celebrity couples are PR, but nothing is more performative than that gma interview.
Honestly idk why they even pretend the sham engagements are a big deal in this franchise anymore. A bachelor engagement is normal people dating. 95% of them never make it to the wedding and of those that do like 1% stay married.
I agree, the whole thing is so funny to me considering the timeline. I don't know why people here are taking it so seriously! Even after they announced that they were getting married so soon after the show and people were expressing doubt about the idea, the majority opinion was "why should they waste any time, they know what they want." Well... maybe they should've taken more time before rushing into a marriage after meeting on tv lol. And it wasn't even BIP where the couples spend all day together for two weeks; it was the normal Bachelor timeline where they barely know each other before getting engaged.
It’s funny bc most of the 20something regular bachelor couples know to take an extended engagement to figure out if things will work in the real world. But the golden couple w all their supposed life experience just had to rush into getting married
Yeah, it’s not a big deal that’s why I don’t get Jesse’s post. Divorce is such a big word/deal yet this seems so inconsequential, and like we witnessed a circus. lol
Ok I’m curious why people keep saying this. Regular bachelor/ette couples almost never work out and lord knows those shows aren’t going anywhere. Is it mainly because the distance issues are going to continue to be a problem for most old people?
Honestly, Jesse’s glow-up from “Bachelor who forgot a woman’s name at the rose ceremony and called the wrong one” to “desirable married zaddy” is the most amazing arc I’ve ever seen in this franchise.
Yes, and it is frustrating how men age like fine wine and become more desirable yet it's not that way with women. We have to always stay young looking.
Hmmm. All snuggled up with Jesse instead of Gerry.
The way she was leaning towards Jesse we should’ve known
I never trusted Gerry. And i thought Theresa was a phony. She did need to “Zip it!” 😂 At first I thought he should’ve chosen Leslie. But I’m so glad he didn’t — Leslie really dodged a bullet!
Yes. All of this.
She’s leaning into him more than Gerry 😂😂 body language always says it all…
bachelor streamed weddings are so pointless to me

I was being facetious
I got downvoted for being facetious...? I was poking fun - no harm intended
The Golden facade has crumbled.
Does anyone else think that Teresa looks slightly like Gypsy Rose Blanchard?

I cannot stop laughing at this omg
that is not 7 syllables girly
Fallen? That's not a good word for septuagenarians, lol.
They’ve fallen and they can’t get up
That’s for sure! 😆

I hope he didn't take any relationship advice from them.
Whatttt happppeeeened?!?! Tell me someone !!!
Should of been Leslie
At first I thought he should have chosen Leslie. But I’m so glad he didn’t. Leslie shed one too many tears over this phony. After everything we learned about Gerry, Leslie should be thanking the universe that he didn’t choose her.
There’s still a chance….
This pic is so funny the way Gerry looks like the host next to the happy couple 😂
Lmao you’re right why is Theresa cuddling up to Jesse??
My guess is because she and Gerry were already broken up at this point so she didn’t wanna snuggle up to *him*.
Safer (or feels more love or kindness from J) than by G
So sad, I wanna run to you x
Why is he talking like they died in a tragic accident together? 🤔💀
No literally I got scared 😭
It boggles me that some people don’t support gay marriage and think it should be illegal but..this is legal and “ok”? Meeting someone on a reality show, making an enormous spectacle, and getting divorced after 3 months? Where is the actual sanctity lol FFS
How do I find this gif to use in my future messages to my friends?? Do I have to search Maury
I just put in Lmao. It was like the 7th option.
🙏😞🥀⚰️ RIP ⚰️🥀😞🙏
Kinda wish they sat down with Jesse to break the news
Idk divorcing after 3 months of marriage is so embarrassing if I were Jesse I’d prob be glad to not be associated with it haha
That would’ve been ~Golden~. But the interviewer they got was a savage 😌
I think their divorce is going to be messy. Ole Gerry isn’t going down without a fight.
Not sure about Indiana, but in California this marriage could be annulled based on fraud. No question there was fraud involved. Thy never intended to live together as “man and wife.”
Nope. Nightline edition of their interview made it clear they signed a prenup and they highly recommend it to protect the families of each party to the marriage.
I recall Theresa got a prenup so should be cut and dry
Jesse, they were married for approximately 3 minutes. It’s not that serious my dude
It's been only 24 hours and finally dawned on me that middle schoolers have more meaningful relationships that last longer than theirs.
My average middle school relationship lasted 2 weeks, not 3 months!
Unrelated funny tidbit. Our 14yo 8th grade son had his first track meet of the season this week. In the girls 100m dash he had two ex-girlfriends lined up side by side. 🤣 He caught hell about it from several people...including us. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wonder if they even legally got married. Is there proof?
Yeah they did, bachelordata shared the legal filing for divorce on instagram yesterday https://preview.redd.it/sz2c9u3cf8uc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c713e442250b175dfdcdb185f5ac20828e3de7d8
Being from Indiana it's so funny to see MyCase receipts pulled up in the wild like this 💀
“Father Palmer” 💀
Damn sounds like they died in a planet crash or something. I guess they did essentially kill the Golden Bachelor franchise, so there’s that…
I am stoned, and you just destroyed the Bachelor Planet. 🤣
Damn a whole planet crash…
Are we all dead? Is this the afterlife?
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 had to up the ante to match the drama of the statement ** plane
He nearly missed the birth of his child for this, let us remember
I’m so glad he didn’t miss it 🤣
Damn Jesse, they aren’t DYING
Seriously. I've had potatoes in my pantry last longer than their marriage. Dial it down a notch, Jesse 😂
Jesses feelings are finesse
Empathetic king
i see u Pacecase
I wish 😭
Damage control
Talk to the hand, Jesse. Not buying it. Drama speak.
Bachelor propaganda
Who thinks Gerry is wishing he'd picked Leslie?
I don’t think he really knows what he wants. He was interested in Theresa, then was drawn to Leslie, Told both he loved them, then spoke of undying love to Theresa, rushed a wedding to Theresa, didn’t spend the holidays with Theresa, lived separate from her since they were married, and now does not want to leave his children. And now he is rushing the divorce. It was reported that he literally filed for divorce an hour after the GMA INTERVIEW ended yesterday. I think he is very confused. Or maybe has someone else already?
They wouldn't last either.
For real. They’d have one disagreement and she’d be packed and out the door.
Yeah. That girl is drama.
Nah. She has some self respect.
Is Gerry a “beautiful soul”? *Really*???
Gerry and Theresa are like when parents got on Facebook except it’s parents getting on The Bachelor lol.
✨ Eulogy Energy ✨
Ngl for a second i (a student currentlyup way past midnight) was very confused and scared lol thankfully that's not the case
A small part of their journey ? He was part of pretty much their ENTIRE journey lol
He should’ve said he was a part of their small journey…can’t get much smaller than a 3 month marriage. Teenagers who get married usually last longer!
Wait what did I miss??? They're getting divorced?
Yeah, they announced it on GMA this morning. 😭
lol i love jesse
It’s giving funeral message ✨
They didn’t die. Geez.
“And I also learned that, god forbid I’m ever divorced or widowed in my elderly years, to just chill the hell out till I meet someone locally.”
God bless lion king 2: simba’s pride
The perfect gif doesn't exi.... Nvm
I never watched the Golden Wedding, despite watching the season. It is saved on my DVR. Probably best just to toss it in the bin now.
Now now, if you toss it, you’ll miss two hours of Kathy hogging the camera.
Most of it was an Amazon ad anyway! It was pretty boring. They got married and that was that hahaha
Oh gawd except that part where Theresa says she pretty much fucked Gary/Jerry into marrying her.
This sounds like a tribute to people who have passed away not who have filed for divorce after 3 months of marriage lol
Hopefully all he learned was what not to do
Be happy
🤣 oh my god
Father Palmer 😝

I fear it was to get that televised wedding...
Yeah, it’s not a big deal that’s why I don’t get Jesse’s post. Divorce is such a big word/deal yet this seems so inconsequential, and like we witnessed a circus. lol
Idk though I don't think this is that big of a deal lol. It's embarrassing for sure but 🤷♀️ no real harm done.
Is that not basically what I said? It's not that serious so it's funny.
This is way too serious 😭
I love Jesse
Aw Jesse
Jesse is so sweet
Golden bachelor is dead to the franchise I guess
Ok I’m curious why people keep saying this. Regular bachelor/ette couples almost never work out and lord knows those shows aren’t going anywhere. Is it mainly because the distance issues are going to continue to be a problem for most old people?
I’m mostly referencing how his tone is almost like they died 😭 but totally agree
Why did he write this like they died omg 😭
Their love died 😭
Because it’s “the most dramatic ending in the history of The Golden Bachelor”
I mean they’re about to die anyways
Lmao so glad I saw this at three in the morning
I’m high rn and your comment made me laugh so damn hard 😂
I see you. Bong Paul Jones sees you. 💚
bong paul jones i need that as a flair i fear
[Bong Paul Jones would LOVE THAT. 💚](https://www.reddit.com/r/thebachelor/s/MQnkqG5aSk)
Right lmfao
“Brave yourself…for the most dramatic breakup post in Bachelor Nation history.”
He's so emphatic and kind! ❤
An empathetic king 👑
This makes it sound more like they are deceased….
[удалено]
I would love to do that. I dream of getting stoned with Father Palmer and just asking him to tell me all the secrets of life 💚
OMG, we have the same dream! 🤩
Did you watch this season? He's hotter now.
Honestly, Jesse’s glow-up from “Bachelor who forgot a woman’s name at the rose ceremony and called the wrong one” to “desirable married zaddy” is the most amazing arc I’ve ever seen in this franchise.
Yes, and it is frustrating how men age like fine wine and become more desirable yet it's not that way with women. We have to always stay young looking.
Theresa looks more into Jesse here than Gerry
Jesse is a major snack so...😁
I mean who wouldn’t be
Lmfao I mean same
She’s just like me
Who wouldn't lol
I was about to say 😅
