“I guess the secret is out! I’m officiating THE GOLDEN WEDDING and I’m just beyond excited!” she wrote on Instagram. Throughout her time on the show, Noles was regarded as “a girl’s girl.”

Talking to Glamour, Noles said that “The happy couple came up with the idea because we became so close during the show. Gerry’s my buddy and now Teresa is my girlfriend, so why not? I never asked them why, to tell you the truth. But I’m really glad they did.”

On the other hand, Nist told Entertainment Weekly that they want all of the women from ‘The Golden Bachelor’ to be there. We don’t know who’s going to be able to make it. And there will be people there from Bachelor Nation and then our close family and friends.”

Turned told Entertainment Weekly that “We will certainly celebrate the memory of Billy and Toni in the wedding.” He also told Deadline that “It would be absolutely an oversight to not honor their memories.
