The Golden Bachelor star Theresa Nist has been posting in-depth content about her life on social media, and I believe she’s looking to get under her ex-husband Gerry Turner’s skin. While Theresa and Gerry’s relationship wasn’t meant to last, her time on The Golden Bachelor season 1 was sweet for Bachelor Nation. Theresa met Gerry during the opening night of the competition, celebrating her 70th birthday with the Golden Bachelor lead and stirring up butterflies during their first moments together on screen. Theresa and Gerry’s journey after the first night was fascinating to watch unfold, as their chemistry built quickly.
The pair seemed to find each other interesting, and their connection was easy to build as they moved through the weeks of The Golden Bachelor’s filming schedule. When it came down to the end of the competition, Gerry had to choose between Theresa and his runner-up, Leslie Fhima. Shocking Bachelor Nation, Gerry proposed to Theresa, and the pair announced they’d be getting married a month later in a live TV wedding special. The Golden wedding was a spectacle of Bachelor Nation proportions, which left viewers even more shocked when the couple announced that they’d be getting divorced three months later.
Theresa Nist Is Posting About Her Lifestyle
She Shares Content About Herself
Although she took some time away from social media after The Golden Bachelor scandal that led to her divorce from Gerry, Theresa has gotten back to posting regularly, especially on Instagram. While her content isn’t always serious, Theresa often shares detailed stories about her life, explaining the things she likes, loves, and learns on her social media platforms. Talking about her family as though her followers are familiar with them, sharing trips with friends as frequently as she takes them, and letting her followers in on her day-to-day life, Theresa has formed a great rapport with those who follow her.
While she doesn’t often get overly personal about her feelings, Theresa shares content that allows her followers to feel an authentic connection with her. During her time on The Golden Bachelor, Theresa made it clear that she was happy to be sharing herself with both Gerry and the viewers of the show. She was upfront about the things that had happened to her in her life, and made it clear that she wouldn’t shy away from talking about her hardships. While Theresa may be a bit more positive than she appeared on The Golden Bachelor, her brand is deeply authentic.
Theresa’s Rebranded After The Breakup
She Doesn’t Talk About The Show In Detail
After her time on The Golden Bachelor, Theresa was often posting about her relationship with Gerry. During their brief engagement and short marriage, the couple would keep their Instagram followers up to date about their lives, whether it was about planning their wedding or sharing time together in their homes. After the divorce was announced, Theresa took time away from social media, and when she returned, her content had changed a bit. Rebranding and showing off her family, friends, and the familiar places where she spends her time, Theresa was happy to be open about how she spent her time.
Theresa Has A Better Relationship With Her Followers Than Gerry
Her Followers Trust Her Implicitly
Although Theresa’s posts are inherently different from Gerry’s, the authentic relationship she’s built with her followers is admirable. Theresa has been able to share enough of herself with her followers that they feel like they know her, and even feel comfortable commenting personally on her posts. Theresa often responds to comments and gets in-depth about her feelings, which allows her followers to feel more attached to her as a creator. Building relationships with her followers that allows her to post in a more personal way, Theresa has built a community with her online supporters in a way that Gerry can’t.
Theresa Is Looking For Gerry’s Attention
She Wants To Get Under His Skin
While Theresa’s content is authentic, it can be strange in some moments to see her branch out into concepts like her workout routine or a family day in the city. Bachelor Nation is interested in what’s happening in Theresa’s life, but I sometimes find myself wondering if she’s posting content specifically so her ex-husband will see it and pay attention. One of Theresa’s most recent posts, which details her workout routine and shows her doing vigorous calisthenics in her living room, caught me off-guard when I first saw it on my feed.
Though I believe Theresa posted to share her routine, I also found myself wondering if she was trying to share something she felt would get under Gerry’s skin. I wouldn’t blame Theresa for wanting to get Gerry’s attention and show him what he was missing out on after their quick marriage. Though Theresa surely had a hand in ending things with Gerry, she seemed blindsided by the entire marriage and divorce fiasco after The Golden Bachelor came to an end. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that Theresa was hoping to come out on top of the breakup.
