Chock Chapple is exploring "late in life" love on The Golden Bachelorette, and Joan Vassos looks a lot like his late mother. Chock charmed Joan on the show, staying close to her during the group bowling date. Chock, whom his love rival Pascal Ibgui considered controlling, acted like her fiancé before he had that title. Used to winning people over in the insurance business, Chock knows how to sell himself.
Since he is a slick insurance salesman, who's seemingly affluent because he's able to convince people to buy, there may be questions about The Golden Bachelorette's Chock Chapple's motives. However, the fact that he chose a woman so similar in looks to his beloved mom, whom he misses every day, tells a more romantic story. It shows his softer side.
Chock May Love Joan's Blonde Look
It Could Remind Him Of His Mother
Some people do look for partners who have traits they saw in their parents. For example, a woman might grow up with a father who's a real career man, and look for that type of male to marry. A man might want a nurturing type who loves to cook and clean because his mother did that. There are those who go in the opposite direction, but if a relationship between a mom and child is healthy and happy, it makes sense that that person would want a partner that has things in common with a mom or dad.
Chock Will Always Miss His Mother
She Was The Best Mom
Chock's mother was a real beauty. Tall and lithe, with gorgeous blond hair, she looked very much like Joan. In the sweet photo above, Chock honors the woman he lost... the one who watched him take his first steps, smiled at him, and loved him. His mother appeared to be elegant, caring and charming. These are traits that Joan, who's looking for an NYC love shack with Chock, shares.
It's striking how similar the two women are. Since Chock adored his mom, it's endearing that he found a woman with such an uncanny resemblance to her.
Like his mother, Joan's beautiful inside and out. She's kind, mature and emotionally whole. On Thanksgiving, she was able to juggle time with Chock and his kids while grieving her late husband, John. On Nov. 27th, it was John's birthday. Joan looked emotional in her car while recording a TikTok. She talked about everything that she was feeling on that day. She was so honest, and very graceful about her grief and how she still feels it four years after John's tragic passing.
Chock and Joan seem like an excellent match, so the fact that he chose a woman who's a doppelgänger for his late mother seems romantic, rather than odd. He grew up with a blond woman who meant the world to him. Now, he is lucky enough to have another golden-haired female in his life who also adores him.
Real love is hard to find, and those who have it should treasure it. No one knows this better than Chock and Joan, as both lost beloved partners.
The Golden Bachelorette stars are embarking on a long-distance relationship. They're not throwing caution to the wind because they're waiting to marry, but they're still taking a chance. It'll be interesting to see whether this match works out. It seems like it really could, but then again, so much can happen to change a couple's dynamic. Hopefully, they'll have a happier ending than The Golden Bachelor's Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist.
Fans of The Golden Bachelorette can stream the series on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and YouTube.
