Chock Chapple got Joan's first solo date, and the pair became smitten with each other. Joan ended up giving Chock her final rose. They left the show engaged, and have been doing the rounds of interviews and designing how they want to step into the public eye. Joan, who lives in Maryland, and Chock, who lives in Kansas, currently have a long-distance relationship, but have plans to buy a place in New York City together. Since Joan has become a reality TV celebrity, her aspirations have blown up, and her status is going to her head via her ambition.
Joan Is Now A Content Creator
Joan Is Capitalizing On Her New Celebrity
Joan is taking advantage of her stardom and fanbase by becoming a Content Creator after The Golden Bachelorette season 1. Before entering Bachelor Nation, Joan focused on her family and her job as a School Administrator. Post-show, Joan has pivoted to relishing the spotlight. By becoming a Content Creator, Joan has kept fans interested in her everyday life. She posts "Get Ready With Me" makeup videos, and also shares selfie videos related to food and fashion.
Joan currently has an Instagram following of 183,000, and she is using her new-found celebrity to launch an influencer career. Joan is also active on TikTok, where she has 136,400 followers. On that platform, she gives fans glimpses into her thoughts on being in her 60s, her relationship with her fellow Golden Bachelor cast mates, and shares viral TikTok trend videos.
It Keeps Her In The Spotlight
Another tactic Joan is employing to take advantage of her celebrity, is that she is over-hyping her relationship with Chock. On Joan's social media, Chock is featured in almost every post along with insights into their connection and prospects for the future. Joan is not keeping much private about her engagement to Chock, which is an overcompensation to keep Goldenfans interested.
By keeping it coming with her and Chock content, Joan is knowingly keeping Bachelor Nation on the hook. She is over-exemplifying that she and Chock are a solid couple, and in doing so, she is taking away from any privacy a less-reality TV ambitious person would want. Joan is clearly enjoying the spotlight, and all the notoriety and public interest that comes with it.
Does Joan Have Other Television Prospects?
Yes, She Does
Joan's decision to jump into a celebrity life as a Content Creator means that she believes she has the charisma and fanbase to stay relevant. Joan is focusing more on the optics of her Golden Bachelorette life rather than enjoying her new relationship privately and without a microscope.
Joan's celebrity has gone to her head because she has completely changed her lifestyle, and now her ambition to stay in the reality TV world and in front of the cameras in general going forward.
Joan came off on both shows as a down-to-earth-person, but her post-Golden behavior demonstrates that she is chasing clout.
