Ashley Iaconetti expressed skepticism about the reasons behind Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist’s divorce, suggesting their claim of long-distance issues didn’t align with their statements of still being in love. Despite their public announcement on “Good Morning America” about their mutual decision to divorce due to cross-country living situations, Iaconetti felt something was amiss, especially after attending their wedding and feeling nothing, questioning the genuineness of their relationship.
Ashley Iaconetti expresses skepticism about the reasons behind Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist’s divorce, suggesting their cited long-distance issues as implausible given their declarations of love and the feasibility of commuting.
Oh, Ashley Iaconetti, you’ve got opinions, and you’re not afraid to air them out, huh? She’s calling BS on the whole Gerry and Theresa saga. Imagine that. According to her, the “Golden Bachelor” couple’s excuse of long-distance causing their split just doesn’t cut it. “You don’t say, ‘We’re still in love with each other,’ and then get divorced,” she quips. Makes you think, doesn’t it?
Ashley, aged 36, spilled the beans via her Instagram Stories. It was a Friday, April 12, to be precise. She suggested if it was truly about distance, why not just commute? Live in Indiana, pop over to New Jersey now and then. “I don’t buy it,” she insists.
Then there’s the bit where she wasn’t shocked to hear about the split. After attending their wedding in Palm Springs, she felt… nothing. Nada. Zilch. Tells you something, right?
On the flip side, Gerry Turner, 72, and Theresa Nist, 70, seemed to have made their decision. They filed for divorce, citing an “irretrievable breakdown.” That’s a fancy way of saying, “We can’t make this work,” I guess.
They even went on “Good Morning America” to talk about it. Holding hands and all. Said the cross-country living was the culprit behind their breakup. But then, Turner drops this line about still loving Theresa and rooting for her. It’s all a bit of a rollercoaster, emotionally speaking.
And hey, did you know they had a prenup? Yep, those Neil Lane rings are going back. As per the agreement. It’s their second rodeo, marriage-wise, for both. Gerry was with his late wife, Toni, for 43 years, and Theresa had 42 years with her late husband, Billy. Both have kids and grandkids from those previous unions.
So, what’s the takeaway? Love’s complicated, folks. Especially when reality TV’s involved. But, you’ve got to admire their honesty, laying it all out there for us to see. Or, at least, what they want us to see.
