The Golden Bachelor's Theresa Nist has an exciting new job, and it could help her move on after her divorce from Gerry Turner. 70-year-old Theresa was one of the 22 women chosen to date 72-year-old Gerry during the inaugural season of The Bachelor spin-off. The show's announcement was met with enormous excitement, and the show was immediately a big hit with audiences. Even those who never watched The Bachelor showed up to watch The Golden Bachelor.
Though she had stiff competition, Theresa won Gerry's heart, and his final rose at the end of The Golden Bachelor season 1, and the two were married soon after. Hopes were high for the septuagenarian couple, but they called it quits after only three months of matrimony. Since the Golden split, Theresa has been doing everything in her power to move on from Gerry and the whole sordid affair.
