The Golden Bachelorette contestant, Jonathan Rone, has reached the end of the road in his quest to win the heart of Joan Vassos. For weeks, he has demonstrated a sexy sophistication but still a soft sensitivity that made a great impression on Vassos and viewers alike. He has also offered entertaining insights while representing himself and the series very positively. Alas, Joan walked him out of the latest rose ceremony, leaving him empty-handed but with a heart full of gratitude for the experience.
With his journey on The Golden Bachelorette season 1 prematurely concluding, it is the perfect time for him to begin preparation for another, as the next leading man looking for love. After the inaugural season of The Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner's relationship did not last but did generate controversy surrounding his attitude and decisions. He tarnished the legacy of the show's track record of successful marriages; however, Jonathan would be the best man to redeem the public's perception of the franchise.
Jonathan Embodies The Qualities Viewers Want To Watch
Jonathan is one of the more memorable contestants on The Golden Bachelorette. He's smart, handsome, and offers a comforting quality that allowed Joan to feel safe. Jonathan offered a glimpse into his past during the horseback riding date, which made viewers want to learn more about his backstory.
He is not afraid to push his limits while having some carefree fun, as evidenced by his alter ego, Sergeant Sexy. Jonathan came up with creative ideas to form a connection and even charmed Joan into giving him the group date rose at prom. He's the type of Bachelor the audience would tune in to see more of every week.
Jonathan Is The Best Choice, For The Audience And The Network
ABC network has committed to featuring more diverse and inclusive leads in its franchises. Jonathan is the perfect choice to offer much-needed representation due to his encouraging authenticity, which conveys accessibility to both first-time viewers and long-time fans. There have never been suspicions that he is a producer plant, but his calm and agreeable temperament would make for a smooth working relationship with the network.
Joathan's genuine vulnerability as a partner and caring nature as a father are attributes the network would be wise to highlight if Jonathan was picked as the new Golden Bachelor. Despite his gentle demeanor, he also has a subtle edge to him and looks great without a shirt on, all qualities that producers seem to look for when considering ratings. Additionally, he is not tainted with negative preconceptions or previous controversy, which would make him an excellent selection to receive the torch Gerry Turner will pass on next season.
While it is more common for these shows to use the runner-up as the next featured lead, Joan left her original season on week 3 before being cast as The Golden Bachelorette. Thus, Jonathan, despite leaving before hometown dates, still presents as a valid and promising candidate to get us to tune in next season. And with official casting yet to be announced, many are hoping Jonathan still has a chance because, if not him, viewers will likely be in for more of the same.
