ABC’s “The Golden Bachelor” Star Gerry recently was asked about new Golden Bachelor Mel’s controversial age comment.
TMZ was able to get Gerry’s opinion on the whole situation.
View below:
Gerry makes it clear to TMZ that Mel’s own 45-to-60 age-limit window — and his intention to immediately axe anyone older — is a bad look … and he’s urging the 66-year-old to be more open-minded about age and all the possibilities that can come out of it.
Gerry reflects on his own ‘Golden Bachelor’ days — saying producers told him to stay receptive when he asked for women 65 and up. They promised gems on both ends of the age spectrum … and turns out, they were right.
He adds that looking back at his season, having an age cutoff would’ve been a huge mistake — he would’ve missed out on amazing connections and friendships with incredible women.
Gerry also claps back at the former NFL star’s comments on the MGoBlue Podcast — where Mel said he’s not into fake hips and wigs. Gerry’s not having it, saying that stuff shouldn’t matter — he plays pickleball with someone rocking a fake hip, and they still smoke him on the court.
