Gerry Turner<\/strong> <\/a>and Theresa Nist<\/strong><\/a> have separated after three months of marriage<\/a>. The Golden Bachelor<\/em><\/a>\u2018s first-ever couple to marry announced their divorce during a Friday, April 12, appearance on Good Morning America<\/em> together.<\/p>\n

\u201cTheresa and I have had a number of heart-to-heart conversations, and we\u2019ve looked closely at our situation, our living situation, so forth and we\u2019ve come to the conclusion mutually that it\u2019s probably time for us to dissolve our marriage,\u201d Gerry, 72, explained, before Theresa, 70, pointed out, \u201cWe have received so much love and support from so many people who watched The Golden Bachelor<\/em>, and I don\u2019t think we can tell you how many people told us that it gave them so much hope. We want none of that to change for anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

Theresa then added, \u201cDon\u2019t give up. Stay in it. Stay hopeful. \u2018Cause we are.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pair<\/a> explained the reason why they decided to split: distance. Theresa noted they had been planning on moving in together in either New Jersey or South Carolina. Theresa is from New Jersey, whereas Gerry lives in Indiana lake house.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe looked at home after home, but we never got to the point where we made that decision,\u201d Theresa pointed out. Gerry later shared that the \u201cthing that strikes me the most in our conversations, it\u2019s been how dedicated both of us are to our families. So ,we look at these conversation and we both think it\u2019s best for the happiness of each of us to live apart.\u201d<\/p>\n
