Stars of The Golden Bachelorette, Joan Vassos and Chock Chapple, have found love through the competitive dating show. During their first introductions, Chock impressed the leading lady with his patented Chock-A-Noodle soup. This decidedly “delicious” soup, and his charismatic personality, landed him the season’s first one-on-one date. On this magical Disneyland trip, the pair established a formidable connection.
The winner became clear by the finale of The Golden Bachelorette season 1. Joan ultimately chose Chock as the recipient of the final rose and he proposed to the Maryland native. Since the televised finale, Joan and Chock have been frequently updating fans about their relationship online. While these posts allow insight into their lives, the updates have been surprisingly persistent. Some fans are wondering if these incessant posts may be concealing some turmoil.
Joan And Chock May Have Contractual Obligations
They Are Profiting From Upbeat Content
Joan and Chock, known for their iconic Disneyland date, were invited back personally by Iheartradio. In two days, the couple posted two updated videos inside the park and one carousel of the Bachelor friend group enjoying the trip. Although fans enjoy their transparent and thorough updates, many believe that the posts have been overly frequent.
It may be possible that Joan and Chock are contractually obligated to post this often. The Disneyland updates heavily indicate a mutually beneficial contract between the company and the couple. Additionally, Joan and Chock’s sponsors were mentioned verbally and in the caption. Ironclad, a contract management software platform, describes influencer agreements, writing:
The influencer marketing agreement may detail that the influencer is to provide three Instagram posts and five stories by a certain date. In exchange, the company will provide monetary compensation or product(s) of a certain value to the social media influencer. The agreement will also include the call to action required of the influencer such as linking to the brand’s product in their bio and/or tagging the brand in their posts and stories.
While nobody can blame the pair for capitalizing on their fame, the frequent posts and monetization of their relationship raise red flags. If Joan and Chock are consistently offered compensation in exchange for upbeat relationship posts, they may conceal turmoil. Joan and Chock’s online personas may not be as transparent as they seem.
Joan And Chock Could Be Hiding Turmoil
They May Be Overcompensating
The pair have little incentive to post more “realistic” updates regarding their relationship. It’s become clear that the Bachelor alum is profiting from their seemingly perfect relationship. With companies offering contracts, and fans hopping on their pages to follow their journey, Joan and Chock may prolong their relationship, whether or not they are truly content.
Their incessant updates, outside of the legally binding contracts, may be overcompensation for some trouble in paradise. In a since-deleted post on Joan’s Instagram, the pair discuss the Thanksgiving events. While they seem to be enjoying each other’s company, some cracks are shown. They may be getting under each other’s skin.
