Susan Lucci claims she was in the running to be the first Golden Bachelorette before Joan Vassos was offered the role
Susan Lucci is a proud member of Bachelor Nation, even claiming that she was in talks about a chance to lead The Golden Bachelorette.
Lucci further claimed that ABC had called her publicist “to see if would be interested,” but the soap star “didn’t pursue” the alleged offer.ABC has not publicly addressed if they intended to cast Lucci as the inaugural Golden Bachelorette. People also reported on Friday that the network never formally offered Lucci the role.“My mother used to watch The Bachelor and I made fun of her,” Lucci exclusively told Us Weekly in March.
“Helmut’s passing is a tremendous loss for all who knew and loved him. He was an extraordinary husband, father, grandfather and friend,” a representative for their family told Us in a statement in a March 2022 statement. “The family kindly asks for privacy during this incredibly difficult time.”Nearly one year later, ABC mounted a “golden” spinoff of The Bachelor in 2023, giving 72-year-old widower Gerry Turner a second chance to find love.
“If it ends up in engagement, I’m open to that,” Vassos told CNN on May 14. “I do believe this process works. I’ve seen it work for so many couples on The Bachelor, so I believe in the process. If it ends up in engagement, that’s great.”
