‘The Golden Bachelorette’ premiered on Wednesday, September 18, and star Joan Vassos broke down the biggest moments with Us
“I feel like I can breathe a little bit,” the 61-year-old lead exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the Wednesday, September 18, premiere. “There's been a lot of lead-up. I taped the whole season and had a little break, but there's been a lot of hype now, so I am happy it's finally here. I am dying for this to not just be about me for it to be about the journey and the men too.
Among the limo entrances was Captain Kim showing up in uniform, Jack singing “My Way,” David bringing a horse and Bachelor season 28 winner Kelsey Anderson showing up to introduce dad Mark. The man who stood out most to Joan, however, was Keith. While she told Us that she had “a lot of runner-ups” for the first impression rose, the 62-year-old girl dad with the station wagon got the coveted flower.'I could have given out 10 . I am not lying.
'You go into this not knowing if you're gonna have a connection with anybody. And there were several guys that I felt like when they stepped out of the limo and I had a little conversation with them and they walked away, I thought, 'OK, this could work, I'm feeling good,'' she recalled. Post-arrivals is also when things can start to get physical between the lead and the suitors — which is something Joan was prepared for.
