Everything We Know About 'The Golden Bachelorette' Joan Vassos
Joan Vassos is taking the reins from "Golden Bachelor" Gerry Turner to become ABC's first-ever "Golden Bachelorette."
Vassos, who was announced as "The Golden Bachelorette" during Disney's upfront presentation, was first introduced on "The Golden Bachelor" before she exited from the reality dating show to help take care of her family. Since then, Vassos has won over the hearts of Bachelor Nation and beyond through her heartwarming friendships with the other women on the show.
Now, Vassos is turning her attention to finding a partner for the next chapter of her life and she'll soon date a pool of eligible senior men when "The Golden Bachelorette" premieres this fall on ABC.

"I was going to come back, maybe four or five days after I left," Vassos said. "And then my daughter wasn't good again. We just hadn't made it far enough -- I hadn't gotten her a doctor yet; I had calls in but it just couldn't unfold quick enough … It wasn't in the cards."
