Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist opened up about deciding to say their vows this coming January during a new interview with People that was released on Friday.
The 72-year-old reality television personality and his 70-year-old fiancee became engaged during the finale of Golden Bachelor, which aired this past Thursday.
The media figure, who proposed with a ring worth $40,000, and his soon-to-be wife subsequently announced that they would tie the knot during a live and televised wedding ceremony on January 4.
Turner began the interview by explaining why he wanted to hold a wedding ceremony just a few weeks after becoming engaged.
‘When you’re in your 20s and you put something off for a year, it’s a very small percentage of your life. In your 70s, the clock ticks faster,’ he said.
