One contestant shared an emotional story during her first meeting with Gerry.
On Sept. 28, Gerry Turner made history as the Bachelor franchises first golden lead.
No ones ever going to replace Toni, he said tearfully to cameras.
But I yearn for the second chance in life to fall in love again.
Thats what I want.
To that end, Gerryarrived at Bachelor Mansionand followed in the footsteps of themen whove come before him.
That isnt to say he had a roadmap.
The loss of some of the personal privileges is actually a good thing.
Dont fight it, and embrace it right from the beginning.
It makes life a lot easier.
But it stood out enough for several viewers to voice their admiration for the franchises newest title.
