Joan Vassos Leaves America With This Golden Bachelor Star Amid Time Apart From Chock

Since the engagement, Joan and Chock’s interest in moving toward marriage appears to have faded. While many Bachelor Nation couples never wed, this pair once seemed like a possible exception. Joan and Chock met on night one while filming The Golden Bachelorette, and Joan showed interest in Chock immediately. However, it’s been a year since their engagement, and Joan and Chock are still not married.

Joan recently shared an Instagram update to tell her fans she was on a vacation with Nancy Hulkower from The Golden Bachelor. Joan wrote, “Day in Palermo Italy!" as her caption. She told her followers that she started the morning by having coffee on a ship’s deck and then went on a “selfie tour” of the city. “We are having the most beautiful time,” Joan added.

In the comments section, someone asked Joan where Chock was, and she replied, "Chock is on a graduation trip with his son and I'm on a girls trip. Can't wait to see him when I'm back so we can tell each other all about our trips!"

What Joan & Chock Continuing To Spend Time Apart Means

Growing Distance Raises Doubts About Joan & Chock’s Engagement

While neither has confirmed a breakup, the absence of shared plans or milestones points to growing distance. The once-promising romance now feels uncertain, with many questioning their true commitment. Joan and Chock haven’t posted together in weeks, while Joan’s social media documents her solo adventures, including a recent trip with Nancy.

Joan remains active and consistent on her Instagram Stories, yet her and Chock's last joint update was three weeks ago. The slow pace of their relationship and limited interaction have led many to suspect their bond may be more of a showmance than a genuine connection. With no response to the rumors and Joan’s posts showing no sign of Chock, speculation only intensifies.
