Golden Bachelor Couple Files for Divorce
TV Romance Ends in Legal Split
Turner and Nist to Seek Dissolution of Marriage
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The whirlwind romance that played out on national television has come to an abrupt end, as "Golden Bachelor" couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist have filed for divorce.
The couple, who met last fall on the ABC dating show and tied the knot in a televised ceremony in January, announced their separation in a joint statement on Tuesday.
"We have decided to end our marriage," the statement read. "This was a difficult decision, but we believe it is the best one for both of us."
Turner and Nist did not provide a specific reason for their divorce, but they did deny that any infidelity or financial problems played a role.
"We are not sorry that Gerry and Theresa will be spared this lasting rubble," said a source close to the couple.
The news of the couple's divorce comes as a shock to many fans who followed their love story from the beginning. Turner and Nist were all smiles and even ended their wedding interview by saying they were "meant to be."
However, sources say that the couple's relationship has been strained in recent weeks. Turner has reportedly been traveling frequently for work, while Nist has been spending more time at home. The couple has also been rumored to have had disagreements over money and other financial matters.
It is unclear at this time how the couple's assets will be divided or whether either party will seek spousal support. Turner and Nist have requested privacy during this difficult time.
