After the first night of The Golden Bachelorette fans got a taste of the new characters in play for this season. While Keith Gordon has already made a big impression with Joan Vassos, there is plenty of time for the suitors to make their mark. Some fans spot red flags with Gil Ramirez, Pascal Ibgui, and Jack Lencioni. But in just one episode, fans are already demanding that Charles L. be the next Golden Bachelor.
Fans See Golden Bachelor Material At Its Best
Although The Golden Bachelorette has just begun, Joan Vassos has some big decisions ahead. But her first night of eliminations is over. Even though there was only a short period for the men to introduce themselves and secure their spot at the mansion, four guys were sent home. Among them were Bill, David (aka, the rancher whose horse ran away), Ken, and Pablo. Among the men remaining for next week’s excitement is Charles L. It didn’t take long for fans to fall in love with Charles L. and visualize him on his own journey to love as The Golden Bachelor.
Sweetly, Charles introduced himself to Joan as “Charles Not In Charge.” Jokingly, he tells her he is 66 but looks like he is 36. In the confessional, he shares that he has been without his wife for the past six years and was very lonely. They were married for 36 years before her passing. She was his one and only love at least up to that point. Furthermore, he says he wants Joan to know he is “honest, nice, humorous.” Additionally, he says, “If I can brag to say, ‘Pretty handsome.'” Undeniably, he is hoping to find happiness on this journey with Joan. Both share the deep grief of losing their first spouse. But after just one night, fans are demanding that Charles L. get the next Golden Bachelor slot.
