"The Golden Bachelor" is an Iowan.
The ABC franchise's spinoff for seniors is coming this fall and the lead Gerry Turner, who is 71, was announced Monday morning on "Good Morning America." Turner originally hails from Iowa and is looking for love later in life after losing Toni, his wife of 43 years, to an illness in 2017.
"I am from Iowa, but I currently live on a beautiful lake in Indiana. I love all lake activities! I enjoy taking my grandkids on pontoon boat rides and doing jet ski races with them. I have two daughters and two granddaughters," he told BachelorNation.com.
Turner, a retired restaurateur, now lives in Indiana.

Kelsey Weier, who was Miss Iowa USA in 2017, appeared on Peter Weber’s season of “The Bachelor” in 2020. Waverly native Derek Peth was a contestant during JoJo Fletcher’s season in 2016.
Koy Schneiter, a Season 19 hopeful from Waukee, was set to appear on Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey’s shared season of “The Bachelorette,” but did not make the final cut of contestants.
