RENO, NEVADA: In 'The Golden Bachelorette's first season, Guy Gansert is one of 24 men who will compete for Joan Vassos's heart. Guy, an emergency department physician from Reno, Nevada, is 66 years old.

He has devoted over 40 years of his life to serving others, and he is now prepared to find love on 'The Golden Bachelorette'.

Guy, a loving grandpa and father, is keen to give Joan special treatment since he values gallantry. This appears to work out, as revealed by Reality Steve, as he is purportedly the final man standing on 'The Golden Bachelorette'.

The insider claims that they are now dating, although it's unclear if they are formally engaged. Given that the first couple from 'The Golden Bachelor', Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, divorced on June 13, 2024—just five months after their broadcast wedding—they might want to take their time.

What is Guy Gansert looking for in 'The Golden Bachelorette'?

Joan's time on 'The Golden Bachelor' was brief, as she had to quit the show in week three due to a family issue. Joan is searching for a partner who shares her beliefs, since she cherishes her family, especially her four children.
