Gerry Turner Reveals Cancer Diagnosis Impacted Split with Theresa Nist

Gerry Turner, star of "The Golden Bachelor," revealed he has an incurable form of bone marrow cancer called Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, which influenced his decision to divorce Theresa Nist, whom he married on live TV in January 2024. Turner shared that the diagnosis led him to prioritize spending time with his family over relocating with Nist. While Turner attributes the breakup partly to his health, Nist claims the cancer wasn't a factor for her, citing distance and other issues as reasons for their split.
