Susan has a relationship with the network. She made her start on the daytime soap All My Children. Casting Susan as the lead would make sense with her daytime past. Read on to learn more.
Golden Bachelorette Spoilers – Susan Lucci Would Be “Perfect” Fit
According to the Golden Bachelorette spoilers, it would be a no-brainer to cast Susan Lucci as the first-ever female senior lead. However, the show has never cast a celebrity to find love.
Still, producers think the daytime soap star would be the “perfect” fit. ABC hasn’t made an official announcement about the female lead of the Golden Bachelorette.
The only news that came out was the premiere date. Casting for the men started late last year. The premiere season will start filming in summer 2024, which means a September 2024 date.

Susan is at the top of the list for the female lead. She’s known for her role as Erica Kane on All My Children, who had many lovers, boyfriends, and husbands.
The network believes that Susan Lucci would be perfect for the new spin-off series. Gerry Turner had a successful run as the first male senior lead. His season debuted in the fall of 2023. He ended up marrying Theresa Nist in a live televised event on January 4, 2024.

ABC producers also believe that Susan has a story similar to Gerry’s. She ended up as a widow after the loss of her husband.
“ABC sees Lucci as the perfect candidate because of her age appropriateness, and the widely known narrative about losing her longtime spouse,” an insider told the National Enquirer, according to Radar Online. “Her personal journey is a compelling storyline that will resonate with audiences, making the widow’s quest for love heart-warming to watch. Who doesn’t want to see Susan find love again?”
Susan Lucci lost her husband Helmut Huber in March 2022. The couple was married for 53 years. They share two children, Liz and Andreas Huber.

I would be interested in Susan Lucia being on a “Celebrity Bachelorette” but not the Golden Bachelorette. It doesn’t seem fair to the non-celebrity girls and although I would probably enjoy watching it, I would make it a point not to in a protest against it. I like Susan Lucci and would watch her on a celebrity version.
