The Golden Bachelor contestant Susan Noles reveals that she's dating someone just as speculation has been heating up that she might be the first-ever lead of The Golden Bachelorette. Although Susan didn't fall in love with Gerry Turner on The Golden Bachelor season 1, she did steal Bachelor Nation's heart. With her kind demeanor and hilarious sense of humor, Susan has been one of the breakout stars of the show. In fact, she and her fellow Golden Bachelor contestant and now-best friend, Kathy Swarts, are now the co-hosts of the Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour podcast.
"He asked to take a selfie."
In an interview with People, Susan revealed that she's been out on a couple of dates with a man she met at Marshalls. She shared, "He bought a new home, and he was going to get some things he needed, and he asked to take a selfie." Susan explained, "I can't go grocery shopping without somebody recognizing [me]. And this is Philly, the City of Brotherly Love. We all know everybody here." Kathy gushed that Susan is the "perfect person," who loves to cook, clean and shop. She added, "all you guys out there, check her out!"
Susan Noles Wants To Give Advice On The Golden Bachelorette
Susan Appeared As An Advisor On Joey Graziadei's Bachelor Season
Susan expressed hope that she and Kathy will be able to appear on The Golden Bachelorette, but not as the leads. She said, "I hope we get called back and go give some advice." Kathy joked that she'll take whomever the yet-to-be-announced Golden Bachelorette leaves behind, saying "I want all the rejects. I'm willing to take sloppy seconds." However, one thing the women won't do is appear on a potential season of Golden Bachelor in Paradise. Susan explained that she and Kathy need "air conditioning and no bugs."
Susan and Kathy both appeared on Joey Graziadei's Bachelor season. First, they both served as judges and advisors to Joey during a talent show. Later, Susan met with Rachel Nance before her overnight Fantasy Suite date, encouraging her not to let her past get in the way of her finding true love. Susan also gave Rachel the great advice that people have to love themselves before they can love anyone else. Susan would be perfect as an advisor to the Golden Bachelorette. Kathy also has a lot of wisdom to share, and would be fantastic in that role as well.
It's heartwarming to hear that Susan has been dating someone whom she met in a natural and normal way. Although it would've been fun to see her as the Golden Bachelorette, the show is such a whirlwind. Susan is a wonderful person, and it might be better for her to date privately, rather than in the public eye. Susan can continue to give advice through her podcast with Kathy, and by making appearances on Bachelor Nation shows, but she can keep her dating life more quiet. Susan and Kathy continue to be an inspiration for people of all ages by showing the world that older women are vibrant and thriving.
