For the first time ever, The Bachelor franchise is giving someone a second chance at love in the later part of their life with the release of The Golden Bachelor. As widows ourselves, my friends Debbie, Jaynee, and I were interested in tuning in to get a glimpse of what it looks like for other people in our situation to find love again. This week on We Can Be Real, my guests and I discuss The Golden Bachelor from a widow’s perspective! 

In this episode, Debbie, Jaynee, and I discuss:

  • Our positive and negative takeaways from the first couple of episodes of The Golden Bachelor.
  • The impact the contestants on the Golden Bachelor have on the women watching.
  • Our speculations on the intentions of the contestants.
  • The major differences between what contestants on The Bachelor look for and what the contestants on The Golden Bachelor look for. 
  • Our thoughts on uprooting your life at our age, PDA, and sex on the first date.
