Among the cast is a fitness instructor a former Chicago Honey Bear NFL cheerleader a wedding officiant a few educators a therapist a dental hygienist and a woman who calls herself a “pro-aging coach and midlife speaker.” Fans of the franchise may recognize Patty, who is the mother of Matt James, who starred on “The Bachelor” Season 25. Many of the women are retired, divorced and have grown children and grandchildren. Love knows no limits, and “The Golden Bachelor” will showcase love stories for the golden years in life - something that is rarely seen in Hollywood, a notoriously ageist town.ĪBC has revealed the cast for its latest spinoff, and the women of “The Golden Bachelor” - who range from 60 to 75 years young - certainly are golden. Now, that question has been answered, and these ladies are indeed fabulously mature, showing that age is nothing but a number.
Or, would executives cast women of a different generation to date 72-year-old leading man, Gerry Turner? Ever since “ The Golden Bachelor” was announced, fans (and critics) have been wondering if the female contestants would be well, age appropriate, for the show’s senior citizen star.
