- “The Golden Bachelor” received a lot of attention this TV season. Gerry Turner was painted as a grieving retired restaurateur who has not dated anyone since his wife of 43 years passed away from cancer six years ago. Now, a bombshell report in the Hollywood Reporter claims his ex-girlfriend revealed Turner wasn't always the "nice guy" portrayed on TV. He allegedly did not want her to attend his high school reunion after she gained 10 pounds.
I had a feeling he wasn’t as good as he was pretending to be. I still don’t believe you can fall in love with 3 people at the same time. And telling all 3 you love them is tacky.
Exactly!!!
Reality television is tacky. All of it.
Exactly the way I felt on seeing the way he acted, there was just something that wasn’t right. Too perfect, usually isn’t perfect. Sadly , interesting hearing this just confirms my suspicion . Jerk
Falling in love with 1 person on a TV show, in a few weeks is fake.
@@ziwer1 I agree.
I’m sorry but I died when you said he haven’t owned a restaurant since the 80s 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You mean....reality TV isn't real? Shocking!
My thoughts exactly. If people don't know that by now, then it's on them.
😂
Lol
Once a liar.... always.
I have just tuned in to this for 3 minutes and all I can say is, this is embarrassing. The whole bachelor/bachelorette concept is a ridiculous, narcissistic, ritual of humiliation. Gross!
The worst thing about betrayal is that it doesn't come from your enemies - Marlon Brando
Says Marlon Brando who was never faithful 😂
@soskika419 Brando never portrayed himself as Mr. Goody Two Shoes, Gerry did.
Well yea, an enemy can't betray you. Goodness.
@@soskika419 Which is why he knows first hand. 🤚
Betrayal doesn't apply here
Listen. Truth here. Once Theresa told him she was a stock trader and had some $$$$$ and then he screwed her that was it. He chose Theresa not because she was most attractive but because she has MONEY.
An angry ex contestant at work😂!!!
yep
Agree!
Didn't he even say that he was thinking of Leslie while with Theresa but his eyes lit up and he did a 180 degree turn when Theresa told him what she did for a living? I have to watch that back.
That's exactly what I thought!!!!! Money talks! I hope Theresa's family wakes her up! and do some research on this guy!@@Sunshinensea
I think he’s creepy. He’s a liar. He also told the final few women he loved them. He threw around the “L” word way too much.
Going into the hometowns he said "I only want to say I love you to who I feel will be my next wife" (Or something along those lines.) Then proceeds to tell all 3 women, he loved them.
Beyond ridiculous that these seniors can go on a few dates and be so in love. I'm 75 and a widow of almost 10 years. You don't fall in love after a few dates with anyone.
I’m only 34 (married) and can’t even imagine wanting to get married again after; one love for me :p
I agree it's called oxytocin. The chemical in your brain that gives you that love feeling. After several months it fades off.. That's why many people have break ups after that time. True love Requires more than the chemicals
I agree
I think he went with Theresa because she was perceived by him as being more financially viable than Leslie.
You might be right about that...
I was just thinking that!
His face changed when Theresa explained to him what she did for work! money talks!!! Theresa should do some research before she quits and moves!
We don't know his side of the story. Besides, Theresa has more in common with him and understands because she is also widowed. I know all too well because I was widowed at 52, and my boyfriend lost his wife (also my friend) 29 days after my husband. We were all friends for years and have been going to the same church. It's been 3 years since our spouses went to Heaven. We understand and will love our late spouses forever while still loving each other and planning a wedding.
Haven't heard his side so I'll reserve judgment.
If its true, that sucks.
Well now we will see what comes out of the woodwork...his daughters knew he had dated. I guess Theresa will be asking A Lot of questions
@@lisalee2885 yes! The family KNEW his “glorious past” was greatly inflated … too bad the first Golden Bachelor wasn’t authentically a man with integrity and class - but those men don’t need to go on the Bachelor to find a great woman!
Yes, reserve judgement until you've heard both sides. Sounds like she wants to hurt him, and she is vindictive.
I wouldn’t judge him for not kissing anyone after losing his wife to cancer. But lying about employment and finances is a huge red flag.
You know he lied about kissing no one after his wife died... right??
This is entertainment for TV, Folks. You haters seem to forget that point. He was chosen and had to play it up for the suspense and ratings.
He lacks morals. I bet he loves money still that's why he chose Theresa over a fitness instructor
He didn’t lie. He’s been retired.
You realize he was living with another woman in the house he built with Toni one month after Toni passed. He was with this other woman for three years. He's a sham.
I felt from the very beginning he was a fraud. Something about him was so off.
Gerry can expertly cry on cue, but he will always be a calculating fake. Leslie dodged a bullet. Theresa, get a prenup - stat. Please don't overlook the misinformation about his past relationships that DID occur starting one month after Toni passed. Sheesh, what a shamster. 👎🏻
I bet he cheated on his wife all the time. He just seems like a womanizer to me.
I’d have thought these people get thoroughly vetted by the network.
Vetted by the FBI...the network just kept quiet
The network doesn't care if you lie abt your finances, makes fir better tv
@@nomanejane5766 it wasn't about the finances ..read the article
@K3r0411. I think he WAS vetted thoroughly - he may have been the best of the bunch of interested men to apply , so they did what they always do …. Embellish this guy to br “too good to be true”. I say shame on his daughters for going along with the sham.
Knew he was too good to be true
Yep. I had a hard time believing his pristine past.
Facts 💯
😂Theresa better make him sign a prenup before he takes all her money
Anybody who would sign up to do this is not going to have a clean background.
Jealous, bitter woman
Well Theresa better have old Jerry to sign a prenup. Sounds like he can clean her up ! To wanna split the bill at a restaurant with your lady ? And Theresa did tell him she’s got money in the fantasy suite. 🤔 Theresa ! Run ! And Leslie, you dodged a bullet girl !!!
He’s an ex-burger shack owner. Gold digger.
I know nothing except if you sell a profitable franchise you make a bundle. And he has a good investment in his house. He has plenty.
Didn't his deceased wife Toni work in Corporate? I wasn't for sure what she did for a living, but an article stated Gerry was looking to donate her corporate clothing to Dress for Success. Corporate business usually pays well, I thought.
@@realmathinaminute you really think that house is paid for its mortgage to the hilt far from an investment
@@cassiebrown9786 I also believe she was involved in the financial industry
That was 40 years ago when he sold his franchise business. I don’t think the money he profited would be enough to retire forever and pick up part time work only. As Gerry stated in some form he was merely working to help out places that need it for the good of society. Not exact quote.
I don't think he will get married because he just wanted the fame and glory and whatever amount of cash the show gave him. Theresa's family will not let her be fooled. She'll take her cash from the show and invest it wisely. Six weeks of filming should be a fair amount of cash.
Yeah, they should take their thousand dollars and be thankful 😂
Sounds like he fits in perfectly in Hollywood.
Just 10 pounds? Oh man, I hope this story isn’t true
He kicked her out of his home. She fell down the stairs while getting ready to leave as she was so distraught and he said something about her probably wanting to sue him
We don't know the full story. It's easy to talk when you can remain anonymous.
The show failed ! They had the opportunity to break new ground and they chose this weak man to be their choice ? Pathetic !
He used the word love, a little too loosely.
I think anyone with an ounce of common sense can look at this guy and how he was on television and be able to tell that all he is is an actor
I have only seen a few clips of the series and to me he comes across as incredibly fake. These revelations fits his vibe.
It’s insane people think he’s real😭
I knew it! I knew it! I felt it in my gut.
Same
Did anyone think any of these bachelor's or bachelorette's, we're what the show made them pretend to be? It's entertainment, not perfected reality of people. 💸
Now that we hear that Gerry is a liar, and he did not like the woman he had dated gaining 10 pounds (allegedly), is anyone going to look into the mysterious infection that his wife passed away from. At one point he said that it was a bacterial infection, not cancer. I'm just asking.
Wtf?!? What an idiotic statement! He didn’t like the girlfriend had gained 10lbs ergo he killed his wife! 😆 Sepsis is not ‘mysterious’ at all!
Looks like someone on the show forgot to do a background check on Gary!!
People will always have something to say.
Let me begin by saying that I am no fan of reality shows. After watching several episodes of different programs over the years, I can only conclude that the various formats offer no reality whatsoever.
A friend asked me to watch a GB episode last week. Being a 72 yr old life long heterosexual single woman , I was appalled by the desperation of these women in spite of their forced bravura, age inappropriate clothing and (in some cases) obvious cosmetic surgery. Your neck doesn’t lie, sweetie.
In any case, I was not surprised to learn this week that Mr GB is ,like many men I have known over the years, a liar and a deceiver-employment, dating, finances. Goodbye and good luck to all these pathetic losers. In the future, I’ll be tuning in to predators hunting wildebeests on the African Savannah.
Right, the clothing was inappropriate. I've never seen so many bony legs 😂
@@LuceliaBerger 👍👍
Thank you Hollywood Reporter and the brave woman who told her truth!! It opened my eyes, that's for sure!! Looks like $$ is VERY important when choosing a partner IMO. It's all becoming clear to me now.
She’s so brave that she can’t come forward herself and goes by a fake name? Give me a break.
She probably chose anonymity because he may not be mentally stable? I don't know, but several comments written about him on this channel, could lead people to believe that. I'm not a mental health provider, so I choose to remain neutral.
@@LuceliaBerger AMEN!
@@user-qm9uo9mb8f I take it with a grain of salt. For now it’s just “a story” from some phantom lady.
@@cassiebrown9786 or maybe she’s the unstable one. Maybe she’s a woman scorned.
😵💫😵💫😵💫
Who knows? Assumptions about this can be made all day.
I’m not just going to believe some phantom woman. I’m not saying it’s not possible that this didn’t happen but we simply do not know.
I’ll judge when I get the full story. Too many false accusations flying around today
Okay, and theirs 25 more days left until Christmas. Happy Holidays everyone!
And Happy Holiday’s to you as well !
He is such a liar
Why would you think he’s a good guy. Never trust anyone on tv, idk when people will get it.
This is a warning for anyone wanting to go on these reality shows. Tell the truth because it will bite you in the butt sooner or later...!!
The entire premise of the show is manufactured. It has nothing to do with love. Just a sloppy soap opera without actors.
I don’t believe the weight thing. His family and previous wife aren’t small.
It all comes out in the wash. Lies will always follow you.
He gave me the "too good to be true" vibe from the first night. There was something inauthentic/slick about. Too well-packaged.
Oh my Lord, I’m shocked by this video to be honest! I was not expecting to hear that about Gerry!
Gary
I dont thonk teresa cares. She gets to dress him up real pretty and drag him around with her.
This is all gossip from an ex girlfriend…
"hell know fury than a woman scorned" but who knows
Exactly .. she had something to say when the show about to end lol 😂
Problem is, he said he had never had any girlfriends or a relationship since his wife died. WTF.
@@territurner8972 Maube he didn’t consider her a girlfriend or relationship
@@territurner8972 there’s a bar called the shady nook on the lake. He brought many women in there. He and the ex were together for a year and a half. He wanted her to move in. The ex was 14 years younger. Her mother was against it, but he promised her mother he was going to marry her. He’s a liar. He’s a cheat and he’s an opportunist believe what you want.
If it’s true that sucks, I thought he was a good guy
Sour grapes, move on.
Wow I am shocked by all of this.
This must have been released by a rival network 😂
What a trash report. Anyone who won't come forward and make her identity public shouldn't be trusted.
Well in the hood we call those kind of guys trifling players and the bad part is women would prefer that type of man before they find a nice guy LMAO😂🤣😂🤣🤣
Men like that deserve to just stay alone the rest of their miserable lives tbh
@@brooklyn3299 you know what a perfectly agree with you🤔
A gentleman never tells about conquests, private matters, or dealings with a women publicly! ....
She got her 15 minutes of fame.
Everybody has a history 😂
He's a George Santos! I knew he was too good to be true.
Looks like a sneaky cry baby bastard to me 😂
I hope if she decides to marry him, she has a prenup. I'm guessing he chose her it was because she has money and is still working.
Glad I stay away from reality television.
This whole show is 🤮
LGrescues 💯💯 Most definitely agree with you Lil homie this show Retarted 🤣
Lied ab everything. He's no catch.
Here come the creepers. Also you DO realize how old he is. Of course he hasn’t run a restaurant in many years. This is a joke. All the 15 minutes of famers coming out. 😮
38 yrs since he ran the burger shop my dear ! So he retired at 42 ?
How could 72 y.o. Gerry in all honesty truthfully fall in in love with 3 women within a few weeks? Defies logic.
I can’t believe people still watch these shows! You have to have something better to do?! This is such a joke!!!
Anyone here after the divorced was announced? Lmao
They probably told him not to mention dating after his wife Toni died ,and his not so great job.The show wanted the very best look or story for Gerry on TV.😇
What a liar! Leslie is the winner here. I knew there was something off with him. Also what he did to the ex girlfriend by fat shaming? That’s sad as he’s a father of children and has grandchildren who have some extra weight. His wife did too. Where does he get off?
He thinks he’s a pretty boy--NOT
I’ve been watching, but he hasn’t said he didn’t date or kiss since his wife died.
Yes, he definitely did imply he hadn’t dated. Rewatch his last date with Leslie in Costa Rica.
What? Reality tv isn’t real?!
Shocker
😂😂😂
I am trying to figure out how this is news. It's a reality show. He's dating so what...he didn't talk badly about anyone so there wasn't any defamation
I hope he & Theresa will be happy. So glad it won't be Leslie! She was too strong for him anyway.
totally agree with your opinion. She is better off without him.
She is too wounded, not strong
Lying to get to the top. The tale as old as time. Everyone does it.
Hope this isn’t true .. love this show.
This is why reality TV is toxic. It's mostly scripted
Me too. She could be sour grapes, and doesn’t even want to stand by it with her name 🤷🏻♀️
A guy that knows him from the lake verified his reputation and spoke very highly of the girlfriend. He’s not well liked at all.
This reporting is just like all the other reporting going on today. Nobody’s perfect. And the major stance on this story is an “ex” …… we all know how that goes. Leave the dude alone unless he’s proven to have actual skeletons in his closet. Btw I e never watched this show, not know anyone affiliated,I just know terrible reporting when I see it. Just to make rumors
Agree with everything you said.
Why did they not vet him to begin with? Now all this comes out to make him look like a douch.
Well, she tried to warn them!
He broke up with a past girlfriend because she gained 10 pounds, well he shouldn't be judging cause he should look at his own daughters and granddaughters, i am not fat shaming but a black kettle shouldn't call a pot black
His wife didn’t die from cancer. A lot of the media seems to misrepresent facts and every time I hear this girlfriend story it’s different.
The wife died from sepsis.
Whaaat ... she didn't die from Cancer?? How do you know this? 😮
What a scam
I hope after the wedding hoopla is over, I NEVER see that man again. I hope with his money made from the show and televised wedding, he gets help for his seemingly anxiety. I've never a man cry so much.
I hope there is no wedding. It’s going to be a big sham if they do go through with it.
He cried so much, it made me think he would have made a match made in heaven with Sobyn Robyn of Sister Wives! Hahahaha😂
Those were fake tears. He was acting
Shame on him! Not surprised! If it looks too good to be true, it usually is! He went with the Safe person, instead of the person who made him Happy! Good luck living happily ever after! Who am I to judge, I am single and unhappy!🤣😂🤣😂
Omg yall really gonna believe a anonymous person lmaooo 😂😂😂😂😂 if it’s true show your face!!!
As usual he is like all men, full of himself. He picked the lady with the most cash and the one who damn near begged him to pick her. He was very selfish in his dating rituals.
Still waiting for those alleged Grindr hook-ups to come forward.
I am reading this in the bath on the International Space Station, and the one thing we don’t tolerate up here is a liar!
How could you be mourning your wife, and having all these affairs. Maybe Gerry Turner, didn't love his wife in the end. He seems to like petite women.
Why did she come forward? To publicly humiliate him?
I KNEW this guy was a creep!!! I got womanizer vibes the whole time!! He seemed so fake!
Reality tv lied? Wow I can’t believe it 😂😂
He never said she died of cancer. She didn't. He never said he hadn't kissed anyone. Such a stupid story.
Never liked these shows anyways so I really don’t care.
Would love to see Gary in person
People come out of the woodwork for their 15 minutes,I know there's his side, her's & the truth,so I'll go with a grain of salt
He’s 72?! I thought he was in his 50s
ATTA BOY!! LMAO!
Such a con. They edit out their wrinkles too.
Don't people have anything better to do with their lives than dig up stories on a 72 year old reality tv show star? Isn't it implied he's acting and its entertainment? You mean all his crying wasn't real? Give me a break.
I'm not caught up on all the gossip with him but I have never liked Leslie. There's something off about her, maybe she's depressed or something. I thought she was that way long before the finale. She's too dependent on other people to make her happy. I think she's not happy with herself. The polar opposite Theresa is very happy and confident. I think that's what wins.
I agree 💯 with you and I'm 🤔 the Daughters didn't care for her.
She'll probably be the Golden Bachelorette.
Theresa is a pushover and she isn’t capable of understanding sarcasm
Theresa should get a pre nup and shame on Gary's adult daughters who knew their dad had been serious dating and living with that person. Those daughters went along for the ride😮
Anyone who repeats the phrase, "To be honest" as many times as Leslie did is NOT an honest person.
I see a bunch of insincere narcissistic people.
He didn’t say his wife died from cancer
They have filed for a divorce!!!
