Predicting who’ll grace Gerry Turner’s guest list for his Golden Bachelor journey down the aisle is a true test of fan speculation muscle. While networks keep their lips firmly sealed until official invites are mailed out, we can take educated guesses based on reality TV history and Gerry’s own revealed experiences.
We can expect to see plenty of familiar faces. His family, naturally, will be front row centre with excited tears and well-wishes for Dad (a real-people “B” word that’ll undoubtedly garner a smile from every viewer). Given recent season trends on both “Bachelor in Paradise” and “Celebrity Bachelor”, former contestants, especially women who appeared alongside Gerry’s chosen bride finalists, get automatic invitations. Fan theories predict the top bachelorettes might attend as a united front – wouldn’t that add some juicy commentary to a live telecast? Then there’s the “bachelor friend group” he clearly established. These fellow contestants become tight after living in “Bachelor Universe,” so their presence is practically given, adding heartwarming (or sometimes comical) dynamics to the wedding day fun.
Adding an official Bachelor wedding vibe are alumni from previous seasons who’ve become staples at these glitzy events because, duh – why not? These include familiar “Aunt Suze” mentors from Seasons Past and past runner-ups desperate
to avoid their cringeworthy breakup dates becoming the sole plotline on the internet forever.
Now onto some wild cards. While not always guaranteed, there’s a chance of seeing past producers popping up on guest lists, maybe even Chris Harrison himself making a triumphant return? It’ll truly signal closing of certain doors and opening to new eras… Maybe even one with Gerry and his blushing bride at the helm!
And of course, nobody (well, except those legally obligated) knows who he’ll invite. But that’s just all part of making the Golden Bachelor dream-turned reality both relatable AND absolutely addictive.
