Bachelor Nation, buckle up because our Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner, is trading in his final rose for a pen and he’s ready to write the next chapter of his life! Turner just announced (May 8) he’s dropping a tell-all memoir, and it sounds juicier than a Fantasy Suite date gone wrong. 

In an exclusive sit-down with People, Turner spilled the tea about his upcoming book, Golden Years: What I’ve Learned from Love, Loss, and Reality TV, hitting shelves November 4.

“I am more than what people saw on reality TV, and now everyone can get a glimpse of my life and finally see the unedited story of the Golden Bachelor,” he shared.

The memoir promises everything from his heartbreaking journey after losing his wife Toni, to the whirlwind of cameras, champagne toasts, and awkward limo exits we watched unfold on The Golden Bachelor. According to People, it’s “rich with behind-the-scenes insights into filming the show and hard-won rules he lived by when putting himself back into the dating world.”

For those of us who’ve been keeping up with Turner since night one (yes, we watched every minute, even the uncomfortable pickleball date), you know his journey has been a rollercoaster. From his engagement to Theresa Nist on the finale, to their dreamy televised wedding in January 2024, to the Good Morning America bombshell in April announcing their divorce – our Golden Bachelor has kept us on our toes!

And let’s not forget the heart-tugging reason behind their split: the long-distance love triangle between Indiana and New Jersey, plus Turner's own health battle with a rare bone marrow cancer. Still, Turner isn’t throwing in the towel when it comes to love.

“I am absolutely, 100% still looking for my person,” he told the outlet with that signature Golden smile.

According to Reality Tea, Turner's been spotted with Lana, a retired teacher from Indiana.


But the book isn’t just about romance – it’s about resilience. Turner hopes readers walk away uplifted.

“I hope reading this book is an uplifting experience for all of you,” he wrote on Instagram. 

Whether you watched for the love or the drama, Turner's story proves it’s never too late to dream big, date boldly, and spill your truth. Will you be reading this book? Let us know your Fan of View below or by sending us a message on social media @fandomdaily_
