They may not have ended up with Joan Vassos on The Golden Bachelorette season 1, but many of her suitors are not ruling out a second chance at finding love on TV — this time on the beach.
Following Gerry Turner’s season 1 of The Golden Bachelor, fans have been calling for a Golden spinoff of Bachelor in Paradise, the ABC series where several past contestants gather on the beaches of Mexico in an attempt to find The One. With this iteration, suitors from Gerry’s season could mingle with Joan’s men.
Joan, who’s been on both seasons of the Golden franchise, thinks the idea of having the contestants combine would be “so much fun.”
“First of all, I volunteer to be the bartender,” she quipped during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly at the Men Tell All taping. “I can see some love connections in those two groups that I think need to happen.”
So which of Joan’s suitors are on board with a Golden version of Bachelor in Paradise? Scroll down to read their reactions:
Gary Levingston
For Gary, the idea of traveling to a beach to pursue love seemed appealing. “I like walking on other beaches outside of Southern California with my feet in the sand globally,” he told Us. “So after taking off maybe about 30 pounds or so, that would be a lot of fun. That’d be a lot of fun.”
Keith Gordon
While Keith said he would join the spinoff series, he pitched a different location for the show to take place. “I don’t think you want to see a bunch of old men just hanging out,” he quipped to Us. “But no, I was thinking of doing it at a resort or something like that. Pool, golf, pickleball, tennis, whatever. But it’d totally be a blast.”
Keith joked that he was hopeful Wells Adams, who’s the Bachelor in Paradise bartender, would retire from the gig soon so that he could step in. “I want to become bartender and go on the regular Bachelor and just hang out and just bartend for everybody, and see if I can’t hook couples up together,” Keith quipped.
Mark Anderson
When asked whether he would consider joining a Golden version of Bachelor in Paradise, Mark told Us, “Sure. Yeah, I think I would.”
The Golden Bachelorette finale airs on ABC Wednesday, November 13, at 8 p.m. ET.
