Katie posted beforehand to ask what questions she should ask. I and a lot of other women asked her to ask him about the Hollywood Reporter article. (I need to use synonyms for ask!) Anyway, does anyone have a link to that interview? I can’t find it.

It's a pretty long interview, nearly 30 mins:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RY2NDYbYAPU

He essentially said the HR article ex wasn't a long relationship like she said, then changed the subject. This is the second time he hasn't denied any of her specific assertions. Katie should have pressed him on that. He'd better be careful because my guess is his ex has the receipts. Theresa nods and smiles at everything he says. She's a little too agreeable imo, clearly accepts his side on all things and is just so happy to have been chosen. At times, Katie had to address Theresa directly to give her a chance to speak. Otherwise, Gerry would have talked the whole time.

I'm struck from the very beginning how unsettled Theresa is. Her chin is quivering a bit, and she's breathing fast. Not being a jerk -- I really hope she is okay. She never looked camera shy or nervous about that before, and I wonder what she's dealing with behind the scenes.

Even if she accepts whatever Gerry is saying about all of this, the negative blowback has to be hard for her. She's a regular working suburban mom dealing with fame for the first time. She's not as comfortable in front of the cameras as Showman Gerry, and was not prepared for there to be any scandal or negative drama surrounding what she envisioned as a dream engagement and marriage. I feel bad for her.

He is so polished and so smooth, and so prepared in his answers. It's a stark difference.

According to Hollywood Reporter, they verified mail she received at his address, phone texts, interviewed people who knew either or both of them at the time in question, etc. They did their due dilgence.

Proof that she lived there is not proof of all the other things.

There was something about his texts turning hot and heavy early on. I'm sure they saw those, which establishes timeline.

She seems fine, just posted something lovey-dovey. He hasn't posted since before the finale.

Yeah, I know a lot of guys that sext women they don't even know, talk about sex and things at home, and allow these strangers to get mailed delivered to their houses. Happens all the time!

Regular, normal people don't sign up to be on a Reality Show.

Questions:

Is Theresa wealthy? Where did she get her money?

Did she have plastic surgery? Her face looks like a caricature.

You only have proof she lived there.

You don't have proof for most of the other things the article uses to imply he's a bad person.

There is proof she lives there.

There is proof he texts her about having sex with her.

And ... you're holding out that she's, what? His grandmother?

so maybe they have realistically maybe eight to ten/twelve years to do that if all goes well. Statistically, traveling after he's 85 is unlikely. And then the odds are she will become his caregiver at some point. So, I just don't see the romance here and I'm not a cynic. There are also adult children to "blend" (all daughters which have been very involved with their widowed parent...so also likely to be complicated). And there's likely a lot of money involved (see Theresa's house in Shrewsbury which I'm sure is only one part of an extensive baby boomer portfolio!). I hope she's smart enough to protect herself.

Do you have details about her home?

Her house in Shrewsbury IS TINY and only woth 568k. What are you talking about. My house is worth 6 times that and I'm a nobody.

Creepy cyber stalking!
Let’s all stop following GB drama and go watch some corny Hallmark Christmas movies.

Maybe she and her DH downsized once the kids were out of the house. He had kidney disease and may have been on disability for a while. He asked her to start working so that they wouldn't continue paying out of pocket for health insurance, which suggests he didn't have a corporate job. His obituary was beautiful, sounds like a very special man. No mention of his profession. Apparently Theresa got her love of gardening from him.

My favorite Gerry spin is when he said his post-retirement gigs were not due to financial need but rather were "service to the community." Lol, maintenance man.

He's dishonest. I was trying to keep a mind, but nope.
