This Fall, Disney’s ABC is bringing us a new spin-off of its successful reality series, “The Bachelor”, called ‘”The Golden Bachelor”, which after 20 years of fostering young love, this new series showcases a whole new kind of love story – one for the golden years.

In this all-new unscripted series, one hopeless romantic is given a second chance at love in the search for a partner with whom to share the sunset years of life. The women arriving at the mansion have a lifetime of experience, living through love, loss and laughter, hoping for a spark that ignites a future full of endless possibilities. In the end, will our Golden man turn the page to start a new chapter with the woman of his dreams?

Following an appearance on Good Morning America, we get to meet the Golden Bachelor, Gerry.  ABC has released Gerry’s bio:

A retired restaurateur and doting father and grandfather, Gerry [GAIR-ee] Turner lives in his dream house on a beautiful lake in Indiana. He’s often busy hosting barbecues, playing pickleball, cheering on his favorite Chicago sports teams, four-wheeling, and spending time with friends and family at restaurants and local haunts.

Always a romantic, Turner married his high school sweetheart, Toni, in 1974. Together, they lived a full and happy life with their two daughters, Angie and Jenny, and later two granddaughters, Charlee and Payton. Sadly, after their 43 years together, Toni suddenly fell ill and passed away in 2017.

Six years after Toni’s passing and with the support of his family, Turner is ready to put himself out there and find a love that will stand the test of time in his golden years.”

“The Golden Bachelor” is produced by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Warner Horizon for ABC.  The show will be released on ABC and on Hulu in the United States.
