Guy Joan the golden bachelorette

ABC’s “The Golden Bachelorette” Star Joan just gave fans a little bit more information on how she made her decision.

Speaking with US Weekly, she shared the moment she knew Chock was the one and Guy was more of a friend.

View below:

You decided to end things with Guy Gansert before your final date. How did you come to that decision? And when did you realize Chock was The One?
JV I went into [my date before fantasy suites] with Guy knowing that it was Chock. But I felt like I needed to be really true to this process that often works. So I wanted to have one more date with him to see if my feelings
were any different. And I came out [certain that] my feelings had moved into friendship. My heart was already with somebody else, [and] I wanted him to be able to leave this whole thing with dignity.”

So nice of Joan.

After her time was cut short on the inaugural season of “The Golden Bachelor,” Joan Vassos, the 61-year-old grandmother and school administrator from Rockland, Maryland, will begin her own journey for new love this fall when she steps into the historic role as the first Golden Bachelorette. The fan favorite will bring her signature grace and charm as she embarks on a search for her next person, showcasing that everyone is worthy of more than just a second chance at love, when “The Golden Bachelorette” premieres Wednesdays this fall on ABC and streams next day on Hulu. 

Vassos is a remarkable woman whose life has been defined by her resilience, zest for adventure and strong family values. It was those family values that led to her heartbreaking decision to leave “The Golden Bachelor,” self-eliminating after a medical concern with her daughter arose. Despite that and other challenges she’s faced along the way – including the heartbreaking loss of her husband after 32 years of marriage – Vassos remains an embodiment of strength and grace as a devoted mother of four, grandmother of two, and school administrator, while finding solace in the music of Elton John, spending time with her dog, and cooking. Now, as she steps into the golden spotlight and begins her journey to seek love once more, Vassos envisions a future filled with shared moments by the beach and cherished time with family.
