The Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos, 61, was ‘inundated’ with d*** pics and ‘people with foot fetishes’ after The Golden Bachelor: ‘It was scary!’

The very first Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos discovered the dark side of fame when she was ‘inundated’ with ‘weird DMs’ last year after competing for The Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner’s heart.

“I have dick pics,” the 61-year-old widow revealed in her EW cover story on wednesday.

“And I started having people with foot fetishes. They wanted me to send them pictures of my feet and they would pay me for it. Someone offered to buy all the shoes I wore on Golden Bachelor. It was scary. My kids were like, ‘Give me your phone, Mom. We’re blocking all of this.’”

And she wasn’t alone, as The Golden Bachelor contestant April Kirkwood received a message from a “creepy, dirty man” and his wife asking her for a threesome. She previously told EW: “I was shocked. They wanted to go in with me.”

Golden Bachelor contestant Leslie Fhima recalled getting a DM from a man who “wanted to be my sugar daddy, and he listed everything he was willing to pay. I’ve been hit on by way more young men than I have ever been.” [men] “My age.”

Even 73-year-old Gerry told TMZ in June that numerous eligible women have approached him in public places, such as wineries, and online, via Instagram DMs, and given him their phone numbers. However, he remains “wary of women who contact him first.”

Luckily, ABC chose Joan in May to host the opening episode of The Golden Bachelorette, which premieres September 18 on ABC. She gets to choose from 24 guests.

Silver Fox worshipers are between the ages of 57 and 69 and hold professions such as chiropractor, teacher, insurance executive, contractor, rancher, ER doctor, caterer, salon owner, and FDNY chief.

“I am very particular about a man being a gentleman,” Vassos said in the July 29 promotion.

‘Someone with a big heart, someone who is generous, but also someone who is humble.’

Turner and his golden bride Theresa Nist separated after only three months of married bliss (and eight months of knowing each other), because she didn’t want to leave New Jersey and he didn’t want to leave Indiana.

Joan said beforehand that she doesn’t want to rush into marriage and that moving “isn’t going to happen” because she will never leave her home in Rockville, Maryland, because her four children and two grandchildren “are the most important thing.”

“I also don’t want a guy who feels like he has to move. If he can turn his life upside down, he’s probably not my type of guy,” the Metropolitan Interiors LLC designer told EW.
