During The Golden Bachelorette season 1 premiere, Joan and Keith later played cornhole, while bonding about their love for their families, as well as the beach. She explained in her confessional that Keith made her feel safe, which was something that she hadn't felt since her husband of 32 years, John, passed away due to pancreatic cancer in 2021. Joan later gave Keith her first impression rose, and her first and only kiss of the night. Does Keith win Joan's heart in the end?

The Circumstances Of Joan & Keith's Breakup Aren't Known Yet
Although Joan and Keith shared a very strong initial connection during The Golden Bachelorette, she doesn't choose him in the end. However, there are not yet any spoilers about why they end up parting ways. Joan did say that she didn't ever want to leave her family, and Keith is very close to family as well, so it's possible that living across the country from each other on opposite coasts could've been a factor in their breakup. However, this is just speculation.
Who Does The Golden Bachelorette's Joan Vassos Choose?
Joan's Final Four Men Have Been Revealed
In an Instagram post, Reality Steve revealed Joan's final four men, including her winner, who's Chock Chapple. Joan's final four men are Chock, Guy Gansert, Pascal Ibgui, and Jordan Heller. All four of the men received hometown dates, and Joan eliminated Jordan after them.
Joan's three Fantasy Suite dates with Chock, Guy, and Pascal took place in Tahiti. Reality Steve reported that Pascal eliminated himself because he wasn't in love with Joan. However, he was unsure if this took place at the final two or the final three. In the end, Joan chose Chock, but Reality Steve doesn't know if they're engaged.
Joan and Keith built the strongest connection during The Golden Bachelorette season 1 premiere, and it's disappointing to hear that it's not going to last. However, it's wonderful that Joan found love with Chock. Hopefully, Keith will also find the love that he's searching for in the near future. With his big personality and kind demeanor, Keith would be perfect as the star of The Golden Bachelor season 2.
