‘Golden Bachelor’ Gerry Turner Declined ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Offer
Gerry Turner Shuts Down ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Rumors, Says He Declined Offer
Gerry Turner is putting an end to speculation—he won’t be swapping his suit for swim trunks on Bachelor in Paradise.
The Golden Bachelor star told TMZ he turned down an offer from producers three weeks ago to join the show, despite the franchise introducing its first-ever mix of Golden Bachelor contestants with the usual BIP crowd.
Gerry’s reasoning? He already knows the women heading to Paradise—and there’s no romantic spark. However, he’s open to reconsidering if new contestants are introduced.
While he won’t be searching for love on the beach, Gerry isn’t ruling out a fun cameo. He joked that he’d be happy to host a date or even bartend alongside Wells Adams when filming kicks off this summer.
Turner’s decision comes shortly after his shock split from Theresa Nist, just three months after their televised wedding. With Bachelor in Paradise off the table (for now), it seems he’s shifting his search for love to off-camera adventures.
