Theresa Nist's New Dating Scene: Younger Men and Instagram Messages

Theresa Nist, a 71-year-old from "Golden Bachelor, " is getting a lot of attention from much younger men since her split from Gerry Turner. She's been receiving direct messages on Instagram from guys who are younger than her son. Nist finds this surprising and says these young men keep trying, even when she's not interested. She says she'd consider dating someone about ten years younger, but not too much younger because they might not have shared the same life experiences. Nist hasn't been on any dates since her divorce in June, but she's clear about what she wants. She thinks finding love is harder as you get older. Nist and Turner, who are 71 and 73, respectively, met on "The Golden Bachelor" in 2023 and got married after three months. Their divorce was announced in December 2024, and Turner revealed he has an incurable bone marrow cancer, but Nist says his diagnosis didn't affect their decision to end the relationship.
