  Speaker 2: Hey guys, welcome to the Almost Famous Podcast. Today we
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: have somebody who've never had here before, which is wild,
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: but we were so grateful to have her. It is
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Teresa Nice.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Hello Teresa, Hello Ashlam so happy to be here.
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: Hello Teresa, Well, then, so happy to be here, Theresa.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I got to start out by saying that, like, I
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: feel guilty, guilty for being at your wedding is because like,
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: how did it feel to have so many people there,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the vast majority of people there that you had never
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: met before.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know that was strange.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: You know, I was expecting it, but I had no
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: idea who was going to be there. It made it
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: more exciting because I knew you from watching The Bachelor,
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: and so I was awestruck that so many wonderful people
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: were there, and people that I had, like I actually
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: had watched The Bachelor with my husband who passed away,
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: and so it was exciting.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: But you know, you're right, so very different.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: But Nice, I didn't even get to meet you that
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: day because I said high and we met Gary and
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: then I was like, this man doesn't even want why
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: does he want why would you want to waste his
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: time with people that he's never met before meeting them
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: on their wedding day. So I saw you covered with people. Oh,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: you know, like, no, we get a chance. We'll get
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: a chance. I don't want to like, yeah, he'sel my
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: way and take time away from people. She actually knows.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: I watched it back and I saw you and it
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: was so much fun to watch it back because it
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: was a really, really good party. It was so nice,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: So thank you for being there.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: I would actually say it was probably within Bachelor Nation,
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: the biggest event since I would actually I mean Jadan
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Tanner's wedding. Yeah, it would be since Jadent Tanner's wedding.
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, it's been many years since we did
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: something like that, that they agreed to do something like that.
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: That's where I want to start this conversation.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Sure that sounds good.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: We're going to dive into all the details and all
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: the ups and downs and all the good and the
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: badge of this experience. But in general, if you could
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: give us kind of a summary of your experience on
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: The Golden Bachelor, should you look back on it now?
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Okay? Sure, So you know, in the beginning it's just
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: a fluke.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: You fill out an application, you don't think anything's ever
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: going to come of it, and when you get that
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: first call, you don't even believe it, and you know
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: that it's a very long process.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: So when I first found out.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: That it was Gary, my first reaction, and my daughter
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: was there, I said, oh, I don't know if I
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: could move. I don't know that I could do that,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: and she said, give it a chance. She said, just
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: try go. It was an open mind, and I said, yeah,
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I do have an open mind. So I went there,
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: and I'll tell you that when I was introdu when
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: I was interviewing with the producers, they said that it
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: was going to start on August third, and I said, oh,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: my birthday's August fourth, and they said, and so he
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: said you could come in with a birthday cake, and
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: in my head I said, or I could come.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: In in my birthday, which was just a joke. And I said,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: dare I say that out loud?
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: And I said it out loud and he goes, you're hired,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: which wasn't true at the time, and then they loved
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: that idea so much.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I couldn't get out of it. And I said, I
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: couldn't get out of it. They don't know you're sticking
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: with it.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: And when I saw Gary, I thought, oh my god,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: he has the same story as me. He was married
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: to his childhood sweetheart. She passed away unexpectedly. They were
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: married about the same number of years. I said, I
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: don't want to do this anymore. I don't want to
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: do it.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: I want to just.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Talk to him heart to heart and show him who
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I am. And they said no, and I said okay,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: and we did it. And I was so nervous, I mean,
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: coming out of the limo, so excited to meet these
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: other women, couldn't wait to meet the women. And when
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I walked out and I went next to Gary, I
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: was immediately attracted. And I was in my head saying,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: oh my god, I'm really attracted to him.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: How is this, you know?
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: And I just looked at him and I spontaneously kissed him,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: like is so to say, oh, welcome home, darling. At
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: the end of the day, it was it just I
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: felt very comfortable with him immediately. And so that night
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I would say that the two times that I was
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: really myself because after a certain incident, I wasn't able
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: to be myself was that night when I sat on
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: the bench and she said, if I eat this.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Cupcake, will you lick the icing off my lips? And
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: I said, yeah, do it, do it? And that was me,
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: like that was real.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: I was really I went into this really trying to
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: be myself. And my daughter had written me this beautiful
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: letter and it makes me cry every time I read it,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: and I tried to read it to him, but it
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: was like four o'clock in the morning, my contact lenses
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: were glued to my eyes and I could only see
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: like a part of it. So I kind of made
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: up the rest. But one thing that she said was
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: just think the whole world was going to get to
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: know you, and I just, you know, gonna cry. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: so I wanted that to be my experience. And then
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: and then I get the first date, and I honestly
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: didn't want the first date. I just felt like there
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: were all eyes on me then and maybe a target
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: on my back, and I'm going, there's sixteen women here,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: like how many dates are there? Because the filming was
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: only in four weeks, I think there might have been
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: nine episodes, but it was only four weeks, so it
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: was accelerated because they didn't know if this was going
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: to be good or not, if it was going to
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: be popular. So the next morning, and this is on
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: the show. So it's nothing I'm telling you that I
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: haven't said, but you may have missed it because I
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: said it really quickly.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Kathy came up to me and.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: Said, you're the one's It's not me, it's you. And
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: I said, why are you saying that, Kathy? You know
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: there's sixteen women here. It could be anyone. I never
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: thought I was the one. And she said, you're his type.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: I'm not his type. And then she became pretty much
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: my best friend. And so when you're in an environment
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: like that and you're used to having so many women
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: in your life to talk to. I have my daughter,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I've got two sisters, I have a daughter in law.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I've got so many friends. And the next morning I
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: come back from the date.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Gary had said on the date, I'm sick of the lake.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I'm sick of getting that boat in and out of
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: the water. I want to move to Charleston, North Carolina.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I said, no, Charleston's in South Carolina, And in my head,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I'm going, oh, my God, like, what are the chances
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: my son lives in South Carolina? You really, I'm going, okay, now,
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: I'm really open to the possibility.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Let me pause you there, though, real quick, did he
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: know your son lived there?
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: No, you have no idea he didn't know.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: And so I, you know, I'm excited the next morning,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: and so I think I can confide in Kathy. And
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: that was naive and my party shouldn't have done it.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: And I'm excited. I'm want to tell someone. And I
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: just said the date was really great, and I forget
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: exactly what I said, but he said even moved, do
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: you want to move to South Carolina? And I guess
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: it was misinterpreted as Teresa things she's got this, And
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: I never though I had it. I never thought that.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: I just thought, Okay, now I can really think about
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: maybe this could work.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: So this is the incident that you're saying, that was
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: the fact you weren't able to ever feel yourself myself.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: I just couldn't.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: I was mortified, Like I was telling me producers, I
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: want to talk to Kathy. She's my good friend and
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: God bless her. I love Kathy. You know this was
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: just the mechanics of the show. I forgot I was
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: in a competitive environment, and so I said I was
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: forcing it, saying I want to talk to Kathy.
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: I really want to talk to Kathy.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: And then when I sat on those steps and she
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: accused me of being dismissive, I was absolutely mortified.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: I wanted to melt into the floor. I wanted to
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: just leave right then. And I said, oh my.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: God, it's too late, this is filmed. People are going
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: to see this. My face turns completely red. This is
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: complete anguish I was going through. And I ran up
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: to the bedroom and Faith comforted me, and my intention
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: was to leave.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: I really, I just really couldn't.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: I didn't think I wanted to stay there, and they
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: convinced me to stay. But from that point on, I
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: censored everything I said. I just you know, I couldn't
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: really be myself.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: So you'll see me.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: I was really genuinely happy for everybody who got a
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: chance to be with Gary.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: I mean, Leslie and I were just such great friends.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: On the show.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Gook dinner for her, She taught me dances. I was
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: great friends with Faith and with Ellen and Edith and everyone,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: and except that the people that were in Kathy's room,
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: I felt a coldness. So I felt I was being
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: judged and that's just me, so you know, I take
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: that as my responsibility. But Trista had come on the
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: show and someone had asked her, were you okay with
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: Ryan going out with other women? And she said, oh no,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: I wanted to see him be with other women. And
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I said to her, oh my god, justin that's exactly
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: how I feel. I wanted Gary to explore it with
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: every single person, so he was sure he was with
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: the right person. And then when we had the second
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: confrontation on the tennis court and Kathy said, what you said,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: I said, that's fine, Like, if you were meant to
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: be with him, just you should be with him. So
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: I never ever thought that I was the one that
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: wasn't the case.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: There's a few things there that stand out to me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: One is, I think you pointed to it at the beginning,
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: was you had the first date, so there's a target
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: on your back, and so this was you were kind
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: of the one that the eyes were going to be
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: glued to, going what is her next move? That makes sense.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: It happens all the time. You knew it was going
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: to happen. We knew it was going to happen. I
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: want to talk a little bit about what you're when
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: you said you censored yourself, because it obviously worked like
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: your censorship led you to end up with Gary, So
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: you kind of holding back of who you were. Oh,
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: and so I want to get clarity on how you
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: like how you censored it with Gary or if you
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: still felt like you didn't have to with him. But
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: only when you existed in the mansion.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really good question. It was only when
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: I existed in the mansion. And how I censored myself
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: was I'm usually talkative and outgoing and and joyful, and
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I would have said so much more, but I just
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: I held back. I didn't say anything. I just kind
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: of like, if you look through the whole season, I'm
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: probably just nodding and.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Smiling and I'm not saying much.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I was just so terrified that I was going to
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: say the wrong thing again and do the wrong thing.
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: And so, yeah, it changed my entire experience.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: But Okay, I could have just said to myself, Okay,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter, and I thought I could do that,
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: but I couldn't, which, you know, it's on me.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: It's totally on me that that happened.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Are you sensitive about this because of the way that
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: perhaps people just saw your character throughout the show, or
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: your friendships with the ladies because you won, Like normally
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: we would be concentrating on that, and yeah, you had
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: with Gary, but for you, this seems to be the
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: thing that stands out the most.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I'm it did.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: I was able to be myself when I was with Gary,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: you know, but during that time I was on one
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: one on one date and then two group dates, so
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: not that much time with him.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: And I'm going to tell you my grandson said it best.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: I was in my room with my daughter and my grandson, Henry,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: and we were waiting for me to go out to
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: get married.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: And Henry Pipes. Do you know Henry.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you've seen him, but he speaks
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: his mind. He's the one on the show that said,
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: I know you could be the new pop up.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: And he said, yeah, he goes just st of this.
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: You had one date and you're getting married.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I said, imagine if they like they
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: let put that on a big screen.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: I'm waiting to go out there and get married.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: So yeah, so I would say that people wouldn't have
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: known that I censored myself. But when I was on
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: the tennis court with I don't know if you remember
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: that scene with Kathy and she said, oh, guess what
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: like last night I was with Gary and you're out,
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: no man, And I truly felt like, okay, if that's
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: the truth thing, yes, he should be with you. And
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: I don't think that that got across that. I'm an
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: extremely open minded person. I would never want to force
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: anybody to be with me. I wouldn't want that. And
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: when we were together, yeah, we had conversations. You know,
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: you've been on the show that didn't you didn't see.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: We had some conversations you didn't see. So yes, I
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: felt that. I thought before I went on the show
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: that I could just truly be myself and I was
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: going to pretend the cameras weren't there, and then I
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: became very self conscious.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: Those relationships obviously were around a lot of the golden
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: you know, contestants. Those relationships have been healed. I think
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: there is a clarity and understanding now and that all
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: kind of yes comes through, and a lot of them
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: came to your wedding. This leads up to a question.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of fans are one. Obviously, you know,
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: your experience on the show had its ups and downs.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: You know, you did have the runs in with Kathy
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: and you did have, you know, these these high and
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: low moments, and then you end up with Gary at
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: the end, and you had been on one date with him,
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: and you had kind of been opened to the idea
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: of him dating other people, and if he chose you, awesome,
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: and you guys could celebrate that. But then you decide
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: to say yes to this wedding that was, as we
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: said at the beginning, one of the biggest things to
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: happen in Bachelor Nations since you know, Jaden Tanner's wedding.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: But you said yes to it with confidence. I'm assuming yeah,
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: or maybe not. But what made you at that point
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: feel like, yes, this is something I want to do
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: now like this, I am so good moving forward in
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: this relationship to the point of marriage after you know,
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: even your grandson said, you've only been on one date.
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So you know, so I went into the really
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: looking to fall in love and I did. And we said, Okay,
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: they're offering this to us now. They weren't offering it later,
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: it was now, and we said, if we really are
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: going to get married. We should do it because we're
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: going to get the wedding of our dreams and we
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: are older, and why waste any time do it now.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: So if there was a time constraint on the offer,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: it wasn't like, Okay, you could do it this month,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: or you could do it next year, or you could
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: do it in six months. That wasn't the offer. And
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: so we did it because with the faith and hope
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: that we were eventually really going to get married, and
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: so let's do it now they're offering this to us.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: We'll have our friends and family there, it will be
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: whatever you.
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: Know, and we did.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you, Mindy Weiss did a spectacular job, like
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: the flowers of the dance floor, the band, everything was
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: just absolutely gorgeous.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: The interesting part for the viewers and you, in all clarity,
• 15:03
  Speaker 5: you got upset with me because on a podcast I
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: had said, I don't know if you ever listened to
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: the whole episode, because we've always been very supportive. Yes,
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: So that was my comment to you is you have
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: to listen to the whole thing because we've always been
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: very supportive of you. Here. We're big fans of you.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: We thought you and Gary match very well together. But
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: on the podcast, we had heard or I had heard,
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: I guess I should, you know, take the blame here
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: that one of the big factors to your to the
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: two of you then deciding to get a divorce was
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: a couple things. And I think if we spoke about
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: it outside of the Bachelor world, we would say that
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: the two of you didn't see eye to eye on
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: geographic location. The two of you didn't see eye to
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: eye on the two spots that you two were living.
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: The rumors were that there was a big argument about Indiana,
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: the place that I'm from, that there's a lot of
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: farmland in Indiana, there is a lot of places of
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: open space in India. There ain't a lot going on in Indiana.
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: I and we all know that you've been there. I'm
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: sure you've visited for you know, the lake a few times.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm a Jersey girl, and I understand that Jersey's
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: got everything right around the corner.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: I'm going to tell you exactly what happened.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: So I wanted to be clear and say that you
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: got upset with me, and that the intention was to
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: never try to throw you under the bus. The intention
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: was never to do that, because that's not what we
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: would want to do to you here. However, the idea
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: was that both I guess at the time when we
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: talked about this on the show, was I have I
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: see it from one lens where I'm like, I grew
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: up there. I get it. There's a lot of open space.
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: Ashley sees it from another lens, which would be, how
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: in the world do you exist in a place that
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: has so much open space. There's two types of people
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: in the world. Both exist, both are you know, there's
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: no right or wrong necessarily. So that's what we said,
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: and I want to get clarity from you now on
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: what exactly happened. Okay, good to lead to this moment
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: where you said, we can't do this any longer.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, So I'm going to clarify that moment when I
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: tell you exactly what I said. So we're driving from
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: the airport and it was like three hours and we're
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: getting closer to Gary's house.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: She's not wrong, by the way, it is, I know
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: where he lived. It's three hours close to any airport.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: It sucks. Yeah.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: So I see this open land. I don't see crops.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: I just think it's flat land and I go, oh, wow,
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: you could build town homes there, That's all I said.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: And Gary said, oh, so you want to take the
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: farmer's land away from him. I go, note to sell,
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: don't say that again. I said, oh no, I didn't
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: know that was farmland. He said, there's a thing in
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: the Midwest. I'd rather give you one acre of my
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I'd rather give you one of my daughters and give
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: you one of my acre of land.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: And I said, don't ever say it again. But the
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: quote was, Oh, look at this land. You can build.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: You can build villages and streams and resorts and shopping centers.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: And it went on and on, and not one word
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: in that whole paragraph of like ten sentences came out
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: of my mouth. All I said was, oh, look at
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: this you could build townhomes. And then I shut up immediately.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: That was it.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: And then what happened was the plan was to move
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: to the area of Charleston, South Carolina, and we were
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: looking at homes like virtually we're looking at home.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: So I wasn't ready to you know, I'm still working.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: Full time, I have a home. I wasn't ready to
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: sell my home until we found a home. And we
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: never got to the point where we found a home.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: And by the time we didn't find a home, Gary
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: came up with the idea of doing six weeks there
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: and six weeks here. And I truly wanted to have
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: our home together. I was willing to move. I wanted
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: to have our big home where our family could come
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: visit us.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: You know, I didn't want to go back and forth
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: to our homes.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: I wanted to have an established base with a beautiful
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: home together with Gary and then go visit our children,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: and go visit his children, go visit my children, invite
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: them there. And that was my idea because that's what
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: we agreed upon. And then I guess he you know,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: he loves his house, and I don't blame him. He
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: loves where he lives, and he and if that's what
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: he decided to do, then then do it.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: And I want you to.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: I want to be happy. So it did change, and
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: it wasn't what we had discussed. We had never discussed
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: six weeks here, six weeks there.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: We've talked to so many Bachelor Nation couples who have
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: broken up, a lot of them because of distance, most
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: notably like Joe and Kendall. You know, it was all that.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: That was the big blame on the breakup was distance
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: because he wanted to live in Chicago, and ironically he's
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: now married and he lives in New York. And then
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: she wanted to stay in California, but now she's married
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: and she lived in Germany and now she's moving back
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: to California.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: You know. Wow.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: So I we've always been like, is that really the
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: crux of a breakup?
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: Or is there more?
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: And that's like a good not alibi, but just like
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: the public reason for why did it end up?
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Both First, I want to say kudos to Joan for
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: addressing that issue immediately, and she said she wasn't going
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: to move. But you can't get you really can't know
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: somebody in four weeks. I'll just say that. That's all
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: I can say. I'm not I don't want to say
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: any more than that four.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: TV weeks or four weeks because you guys literally were
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: like only a couple in the month of December, oh,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: you know, like an outward couple.
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: True. True. So what I'm saying is the right. You're
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: absolutely right.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: You know thing, you get to know each other better,
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: and it's not something I want.
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: To discuss at this night.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, so it's not just the location thing.
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's awesome.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: That's all we I think. I think that's very fair
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: of you to say, you know, I've been through something
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: not you know, different, but similar in some ways publicly,
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: and you know, if the public was needing every single
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: thing that happened to lead up to this final decision,
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: it would make both parties probably look or feel be
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: up right. You've both had failures within this relationship to
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: lead up to this moment. You're like, you're not the
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: right person. Location is a very easy issue. But I
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: think what happened and I'm curious, So what happened when
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: you and Gary came out and said location is one
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: of the big issues or the biggest issue to why
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: we broke up. People went, that makes sense. A lot
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: of people said that makes sense. Now, for the right person,
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: they would have been willing to move. So we let's
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: assume that they weren't right for each other. Also location
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: was an issue. They're done. So now we see Jones
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: season happening, and I think the fans, with the knowledge
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: of what they are gaining from the relationship you had
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: on this show and the marriage that you had on
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: this show. Are now saying, here's an idea. How about
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: they start casting the Golden Show regionally. How about they
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: start doing the casting so that if you live in
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: New Jersey, the men that you will be dating at
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: least live within a driving distance of New Jersey. Is
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: this an idea that you would back and say, that's
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: a good idea. And do you think if that was
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: the case, if you did live a little closer, that
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: your relationship with Geary could have worked.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: I think that that's an outstanding idea. I think that's
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: what they should do. I mean, it's for all ages,
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: but especially for people who are older, who have grandchildren
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: and are established in their communities and their homes. It's
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: really a very difficult to ask. And yeah, they probably
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: would have been a better chance. And that's why I
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: say I really applaud Joan for addressing that issue immediately.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: I wasn't the Golden Bachelorette. I didn't really have the
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: right to say anything like that. And you just think
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: the world wants a loves to and they want you
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: to move, and it's you know, you don't know how
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: you're going to feel until you were really faced.
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: With that decision.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: It's very difficult, and you know, it's you do. I
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: do want to be in love. I do want to
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: be with someone. I think that that's I think love
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: is for me the most important thing, and it's love
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: of family, and it's you know, to have a partner
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: in life.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: Is that I want?
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: So I wanted that so badly. It's not something I
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: gave up very easily.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: I hate to keep bringing up, you know, yeah, the split.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: But I think lots of people are curious about the
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: fact that you did had to. I won't say had that.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: You did it on Good Morning America. You announced it
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: on Good Morning America. And it was so soon after
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: the wedding, about three months. So why why announce it
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: that soon after? Why didn't you just like milk it
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: for a little while.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: I know, why didn't we do that? Oh you could
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: ask Gary, why.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: Did I want to I don't know, to milk it
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: a little while. I know I got out of this
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: so quickly, I I, you know, to be in that
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: world and then all of a sudden, you just drop
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: everything because we were offered things that we couldn't then
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: pursue some really great things, really big things. But I
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: think I think that's I don't know. I do know
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: the answer to it, I don't know. Yeah, I can
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: dedulte it.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: It's more I don't know.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: I would have never milt something that wasn't honest. I
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: would not have done that, but I probably would have
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: waited longer because of the Golden Bachelorette. I was willing
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: to wait longer to and because I didn't want to
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: put a damper on her season. I wanted her. I
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: wanted to wait until kind of that was.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: Over, because like the audience kind of has this perception
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: now like could this work?
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't want to disappoint people.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: I felt so badly about people who were so disappointed
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: because I was disappointed, and I, you know, I didn't
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: want to hurt people because it was it was such,
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: you know, a fairy tale. It was beautiful and it
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: really was real and we really believed it. And I
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: also feel bad, like I really want him to be
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: with his person. I want him to be with the
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: person he should be with, and you know that wasn't me,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: And if there was someone else on the show that
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: he really wanted to be with, I wish, you know
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: that that could happen. If there was any possibility that
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: that could happen, because I want him to be happy.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Theresa, I also like want to get cocktails with you
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: and like fill your guts to me and.
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: Give me really drunk.
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think what we're hearing is a lot of
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: the real reason. I think what we're actually hearing is
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: a lot of the real reason. With you being respectful
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: to Gary into the environment that existed, a few rapid
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: fire questions here kind of to get maybe some clarity
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: without divulging too much to make it an issue. How
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: much of that period of life with kind of going
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: on Good Morning America and maybe even the wedding that
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: you look back now and it could be it could
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: be blamed on the excitement of the time, the celebrity,
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: the euphoria. I feel it. I've been there, I get
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: it and I feel it. Yeah, we both have been there.
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: To where we go. This is exciting. I'm doing more
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: new things than I've ever done before. I have opportunities
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: that never existed before. How much of that time could
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: be blamed on just the new and the excitement?
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, you're right.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: Well, first of all, starts in the mansion, where you
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: present with someone in their best possible life, and then
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: afterwards you're always in an exciting situation, so you're both
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: at your best. You're both excited by the experience that
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: you're in, so that's exciting, and you're not in your regular,
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: mundane life. So yes, that not too prolong that that
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: wasn't the reason, But say, being in Times Square, Yeah,
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: and the excitement. I've never done that before and that
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: was absolutely wonderful. And then yeah, to be on the
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Kelly and Mark Show and all of that.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: Yes, we were enjoying that ride.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: Together and very happy then and very excited about it.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: So if you look back on it, yes, part of
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: the excitement and the happiness probably had to do with
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: those external factors that you're in this whirlwind.
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: I think the question that so many fans though, also
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: want to know from your perspective now, because the Golden
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: Show did a lot for a lot of people. You're
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: right when you said people were cheering for the two
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: of you. We're living vicariously through the two of you.
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: We're finding hope in the two of you. Could this
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: show work now that you've been through it and that, Yes,
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: your experience is kind of one that people look back
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: on be like, gosh, dang, it didn't do what I
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: thought it was going to do. It ended poorly, and
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: it ended in a way that now makes me question,
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: is this Golden Show can end up just like the
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: other Bachelor shows where you know five percent of the
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: people end up getting together. Teresa? Do you think this
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: Golden Show has legs where it will help people like
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: you find love?
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: Yes? Absolutely.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: I think that everyone with every season, they're going to
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: learn different things. Just like Joan did to say, stipulate
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: right up front. I'm not moving, So they'll learn and
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: it will morph into something that really really works. And
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: you know, if you've first of all, if you had
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: two people who were older and didn't have grandchildren, that's
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: one factor where you really feel like you could leave.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: But just imagine yourselves. You've got your families, your family,
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: You've got your.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: Children, You're going to have your children, your child Ben,
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: and then you have grandchildren, and you're so ingrained in
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: your life. It gets the more the years pass, the
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: further ingrained you get into that life. So I think
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: that it's the family that stops you, that prevents you
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: from fully embracing it. I don't know, I was just
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: so happy to be a mom, to be a young mom.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: I'm all about that. I'm all about family. So it's
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: very hard for me to think about moving away unless
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: it was to move to South Carolina and be near
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: my son.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: So that's it. Like that would have worked for me.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: And like a light bulb went off and I said, oh, okay,
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: but he really wants to do this, this is great.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: And I didn't and I did say we were in
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: the car stopped and we weren't being filmed.
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: I don't, Yeah, we weren't.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: That was on was not on camera, and I said, oh,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: my son lives there, and I don't think I don't
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: know if he heard it, but maybe he heard it,
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: but it's that was a huge factor. So I think
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: the show absolutely could work. I look forward to many,
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: many iterations of this show. I'm glued, absolutely glued to
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Joe's season. I'm so I'm going to be so upset
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: when it's over. I'm just sit there with my popcorn
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: and you know, you moved to the set.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it. I love it so much.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: She's doing such a great job and I love and
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: just to digress a little, I love what all the
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: women have been doing and that they've the opportunities that
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: they've embraced.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: And I honestly have not accepted anything.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: I haven't done any sponsorship yet because it's I didn't
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: know this about myself, but I I feel I can't
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: do it unless it's something that I either use or
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: I truly believe in.
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: So just sell your soul and it happens.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: I know people are just saying, that's crazy. What are
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: you doing? Why did you turn that down?
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: What?
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: I'm not good at it. I'm not good at either.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: You gotta find products that you love to do it regularly.
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: We'll have to figure that out for you.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: But yeah, before you leave, we do want to ask,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: like what are you doing, Like what what's your current
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: day to day look like?
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: And like yeah, and what excites you, like what's pumping
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: you up for the future here?
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: No, so my day to day is I oh, I
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: used to day trade stocks. I want me day to
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: day as being with my family. My daughter just had
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: a baby August Edward gradually, thank.
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: You very much, seventh grandchild.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: Right, yeah, it's very good. I couldn't. I can't believe that.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's if you had told me, you know,
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: I was eighteen years old, was going to have seven grandsons.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: It's crazy seven grandsons. You don't have one granddaughter, no.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: Long and there's no home now, there's no hope, no daughter.
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: I have two children and they produce seven children.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: So that gets me going. And I still do work.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: But it's in the back of my mind to do
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: something different. I really, I really, I'm so curious about people,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: and maybe I'd like to interview people.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: I am sort of like a writer.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I am. I've been into health and longevity my entire life.
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: I've been into eating well, the Mediterranean diet, and maybe
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: I know books don't really pay much, but maybe I'll
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: do something like that. I mean, people do ask me,
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: and I haven't had surgery yet, but I do do
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: things like facial massage, a microcurrent, and I don't know.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: If I should get a facelot. I don't know if
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: I should do it.
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: There's not much to live there. Yeah, well some of
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: your friends are doing it.
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I know, I know, and kudos to them.
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: That's awesome. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe one day.
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: I'm not doing it yet, but so there's there's so much.
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: Maybe I'm just going to key in on all the
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: things that I'm interested in, Like, I have so many interests,
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: gardening and the stock market. And I went from being
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: a day trader to being a Bussian trader. So the
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: stock market really gets me excited. I mean, the stock
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: market to me is like this giant puzzle that you
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: have to figure out. There's so many different bits of
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: information you need to put together to make a decision,
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: and you have to it's almost I'm also like a
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: game of chess where you have to be like ten
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: steps ahead of your opponent.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: So that gets me going. And I don't trade during
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: the day.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Because I have a job, but i'll you know, put
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: in limit buys and limit cells and you know, and
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: go And I'm a techno fundamentalist.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: That's what I do.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: So I can't believe that I got interested in that's
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: so late in life. My husband was a market maker,
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: but we never talked about it.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: You should write a book called like the Golden Girls
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Guide to the stock Market.
• 33:40
  Speaker 5: Ooh right, that make people as Let's give you a
• 33:45
