The Golden Bachelor season 1’s Theresa Nist has been going through a very public divorce from Gerry Turner, but her recent announcement makes her whole world better. Theresa, the 70-year-old widowed financier, was one of 22 eligible older bachelorettes who competed for the heart of The Golden Bachelor. Theresa had been married to the love of her life, William Nist, for 42 years, until he passed away in 2014.
