The Golden Bachelorette’s Joan Vassos Reveals What She Really Thinks Of Guy Gansert’s New Relationship Amid Golden Bachelor Rumors & General Hospital Job

The Golden Bachelorette star Joan Vassos commented on her runner-up Guy Gansert's relationship as he announced that he has a new girlfriend. Guy placed second during The Golden Bachelorette season 1, when Joan decided that she wanted to get engaged to Chock Chapple instead of him. Since then, the 66-year-old retired from his job as an ER doctor in Reno, Nevada after 35 years, and even guest starred on General Hospital. Guy was favored to be the star of The Golden Bachelor season 2, but that's unlikely to happen now that he has a new girlfriend.

In an Instagram post, Guy revealed that he's in a new relationship. He shared a photograph of himself and a blonde woman in front of a red heart sculpture at the Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach Resort & Spa in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The background music was "Upside Down" by Jack Johnson. Guy captioned the post, "I HAVE FOUND MY PERSON. #johannabostonny #bachelornationabc #goldenbacheloretteabc #nevergiveuponlove"

In the comments section of Guy's post, Joan praised her runner-up, and she expressed how happy she was for him. She wrote, "I’m so happy for you and I hope she knows how lucky she is. You’re golden my friend!"

I’m so happy for you and I hope she knows how lucky she is. You’re golden my friend!

What Joan Vassos’ Happy Reaction Means For Guy’s New Relationship

Joan Has Nothing But Love For Guy

Joan and Guy had a beautiful relationship during The Golden Bachelorette, but he became a controversial figure when it was revealed that his ex-wife had filed a restraining order against him. Although it was eventually dropped, it tarnished Guy's reputation. However, Joan has always been one of his biggest cheerleaders. Her happy reaction to him being in a relationship means that she believes that he's a good guy, which has to be reassuring for his new girlfriend.

Our Take On Joan Vassos Expressing Her Happiness Over Guy’s Relationship

Joan & Guy Have Stayed Friends After The Golden Bachelorette

Although Guy's Golden Bachelorette journey with Joan ended in heartbreak for him, it's wonderful to see that they've stayed friends. Her kind words in the comments section of his post made me realize that, while he's made mistakes in the past, he's not that man anymore, and he deserves to be loved. Joan clearly respects him and loves him as a friend, and she only wants what's best for him. She also hopes that his new girlfriend knows how lucky she is to have him.

Joan could've stayed silent and not commented on Guy's post, but it's obvious that she wanted him to know that she's happy for him. More importantly, she's letting the world know what kind of man he is. I think that this kind of support is exactly what Guy needs from Joan after The Golden Bachelorette. Although many expected that Guy would be the next Golden Bachelor, it seems that it's not going to happen now. I hope that Guy's new relationship leads to him finding his happily ever after.
