Joan Vassos’ journey to find love on The Golden Bachelorette concludes with the season finale and After the Final Rose special airing on Wednesday (Nov. 13) on ABC at 8 p.m. ET.
Starting with 24 men at the beginning of her season, it’s now down to two men competing for her heart: Chuck, a 60-year-old insurance executive from Wichita, Kan., and Guy, a 66-year-old ER doctor from Reno, Nev.
Vassos quickly became a fan favorite on the first season of The Golden Bachelor. Despite her strong connection with Golden Bachelor star Gerry Turner, she made the difficult decision to leave the show to address a medical issue involving her daughter. Now, Vassos is one step closer to finding the love of her life.
On Monday (Nov. 11), The Golden Bachelorette shared a video of Vassos reconnecting with her friends and family. The Instagram post was captioned, “Emotions are running high as we’re getting close to the finale 💛🌹 See you Wednesday at 8/7c.”
