And instead of wrapping the wedding gift given at the bachelorette party, they gave it in an Amazon box. I guess Amazon paid for the promotion.

The crass commercialism is such a turnoff when they are wanting us to buy into the true love and family angles!


Still can't bring yourself to focus on the positive?

Did they register at Amazon for gifts for them or is that some kind of Bachelor Nation thing where they pick products that others might want to buy for themselves? What could a couple of 70+ people need at this point in their life from a wedding registry??

The bachelorette party was an interesting mix of the ladies.

Kathy is redeeming herself. Being bitter or condescending doesn't look good. So she's taking the smart route...embracing Gerry and Theresa and leaning into her strength (bossing people aka running the show). It's working.

Quite the opposite! Stop measuring people who have lived 7 decades by the standard of a 25 yr old who hasn't lived long enough to have some bumps and bruises in their past. Guess what?! If you live long enough, you are going to have some "less desirable" episodes. Guess what else?! Theresa and her husband went through bankruptcy! The scandal! That's the thing -- -by the time you hit 60 or 70, you aren't looking for someone who is perfect. You are looking for someone who accepts you as you are and who is good company! If Gerry found that in Theresa, and Theresa found that in Gerry, then all the dirt and back story doesn't matter! What we have right now is two people who were both single, who found each other, and who are happy!

In addition to that, the people who know both of them (i.e. Faith, Susan, etc. etc.) are happy for them and don't hold any grudges. Not sure why any of us in greater USA have standing or reasons to hold grudges or criticize either one of them at this point. They are happy. Yay. If you don't like them ... don't watch!


Amen, sister!

All the women being part of this Is dimininhing
the elegance. Except for a couple they had no real relevance, and are pushing the envelope

Some of these ladies are trying WAY TOO HARD to make themselves seem interesting on Instagram or whatever.

We support you in your quest to be seen.... but don't try so hard to get "likes" at 66. It comes across as cringy and desperate to be famous. Just live your life. Your "picks" for this or that, or how you make soup or the fact you are on an airplane is just not as amusing as you seem to think. Take a lesson from those who are admired -- be a bit aloof and above it all. Live your life and let the fame fall where it may. It's a much better look than trying to curate your image as "fun!" and "interesting!" and "whacky!"

I think it’s a little weird she will attend, but good to smooth things over I suppose. And she’s probably well over him at this point.


He figured out that she wasn't right for him....and now surely Leslie has realized that Gerry wasn't right for her (as mych as she wanted SOMEONE to commit to her). So she's smart to go to the wedding, smile, dance and wish the happy couple the best. Be a class act rather than a Debbie Downer = best chance of getting the Bachelorette gig. Even if not GB, she keeps her name in the public eye and she lands DWTS.



Yup, it's a business decision at this point. A smart one.
