As The Golden Bachelor’s Gerry Turner Moves Forward With New Romance, He Weighs In On Possibly Getting Married Again

by

Following Gerry Turner’s encounter with Theresa Nist on “The Golden Bachelor”, they rushed into marriage, allowing viewers to witness their chaotic wedding ceremony live on ABC only five months after their initial meeting. Three months afterwards, the duo known as ‘The Golden couple’ declared their separation. Now that Turner has found a new companion, speculations arise if they will also hasten towards matrimony. It seems that the topic of remarriage has been discussed.

Gerry Turner recently made his relationship with Lana Sutton known in April. Their romance appears to have blossomed rather swiftly, leaving many surprised. At 73 years old, Turner is smitten beyond measure and claims Sutton has rekindled his faith in love at first sight. Nevertheless, they’ve only been together for about a month, so any serious conversations regarding their intentions of formalizing their union through the eyes of God and the law are still some time away. The former star of Golden shared with People that these discussions are on the horizon but not imminent.

Indeed, it seems we’ve reached a mutual understanding that we’re aiming for a lasting, devoted partnership—a relationship that is permanent. At the moment, I believe we’re both experiencing this phase, though it’s important to note that while they might be distinct concepts, they are closely interconnected.

It seems that the couple is inclined to stay faithful without getting married, yet Gerry Turner mentioned that all possibilities, including other options, haven’t been definitively ruled out. In his words, “They appear to be favoring a monogamous relationship, but they haven’t closed the door on any choices.

It’s uncertain if either of us has a strong desire to marry at this moment, but we have both expressed that it’s not completely ruled out as an option.

People who have seen “The Golden Bachelor” are aware that Gerry Turner had been married to his first wife Toni for an impressive 43 years until her passing in 2017. Given that Lana Sutton, a former educator now in her 50s, has been married twice before, it’s understandable why they might not be rushing into planning another wedding so soon.

Since Lana Sutton sent a message on social media to Gerry Turner back in March, things have moved forward quite a bit between them. Now they’ve even met each other’s children, and Lana has taken the step of introducing her television personality partner to her own family.

In the schedule for Grant Ellis’s 2025 Bachelor finale, Gerry Turner reportedly received guidance from his fellow contestant Leslie Fhima and The Golden Bachelorette’s Joan Vassos, suggesting he disclose his burgeoning romance with Theresa Nist to the public before it was made known.

It appears that the newly formed pair have been exploring potential dream homes, possibly in their native Indiana, while also venturing out for travel. Interestingly, they are currently making arrangements to journey overseas this coming summer, specifically to London and Paris. Gerry Turner mentioned:

Since she’s retired, her schedule is flexible, allowing us to spend weekends together without any constraints. This means she can join me at a moment’s notice whether I’m here or elsewhere, as work isn’t an obstacle. With no professional obligations hindering us, there are numerous benefits that make our relationship thrive.

As a cinephile, I can’t help but notice the hints of professional friction swirling around Theresa Nist, the woman who seemed unwilling to leave her city life behind for the quiet cornfields of Indiana.

No matter if they exchange rings or not, it seems that Gerry Turner is taking his time in making a decision this time. Perhaps, he will use his past relationship with Theresa Nist as a learning experience to find in Lana Sutton the enduring love he’s sought all along.
