<\/p>\n\u201cThe Golden Bachelor\u201d star Gerry Turner initially charmed viewers and the golden bachelorettes cast for his season. He seemed to find love with Theresa Nist, and the two wed in a live televised event just weeks after their engagement aired on ABC.<\/p>\n
Sadly, Turner and Nist revealed on April 12 during an interview on \u201cGood Morning America\u201d that they are already getting a divorce. New sources suggest that Turner\u2019s intentions were never really about finding love. Rather, he supposedly had his sights set on finding fame.<\/p>\n
