Golden Bachelor Spoilers – Grandchildren ‘Gross’?

Gerry Turner, 72, made more enemies than fans in a new teaser video for The Golden Bachelor. And many viewers slammed both producers and Turner for what they saw as “gross” mistreatment of contestants’ grandchildren.

The video spoilers via the Sun also sparked a backlash over limiting hometown visits to three. But first, fans complained about what happened after Gerry faced his last three women on The Golden Bachelor.

And spoilers reveal Turner paying visits to the hometowns of contestants Faith, 61, Leslie, 64, and Theresa, 70. However, the sneak peek for The Golden Bachelor featured some of the women’s grandchildren. And fans felt upset at the inclusion of the kids.

For instance, one little boy warned, “You better not hurt my grandma.” And Gerry just laughed. And another little girl glared at the camera crew. However, one youngster declared, “I just think that you should be the new Paw-Paw.” And one child even questioned, “Are you gonna marry my grandma?”

And spoilers also revealed families becoming emotional, pleading with Turner over the contestants’ hearts. But Gerry also cries at the rose ceremony over his challenging decision.

However, fans complained about The Golden Bachelor spoilers for several reasons. For example, one shared, “This gave me the ick when I saw it.” And another noted, “From the next week’s preview: ‘You should be my paw paw.’ What? Because if those kids knew the Grandpa before he died I can’t help but feel kinda bad they were dragged on TV for this and said that!! Yikes.”

And some fans compared showing adults’ reactions to those of the children. For instance, one noted, “It’s one thing to meet the adult family members. Yet to involve kids in a whirlwind of a time-frame dating scenario where it’s not even certain, is really inappropriate, I think and feel.” And another pointed out, “There’s a way to meet family without asking if you’re ‘gonna marry my grandma.’ Talk about a pressure cooker. It’s inappropriate and too much.”

However, viewers also felt upset about the hometown dates. And they headed to social media to sound off as Gerry cut the contestants from six to three. One fan commented, “I can’t believe they’re only doing three hometowns.” And another shared, “Only three hometowns and they’re [next] week already? Excuse me, what?”

And one viewer called the cut to just three hometowns “brutal.” But another asked, “Why are we getting robbed with only three hometowns? This was the one season I was genuinely invested in seeing everyone’s families.”
