Joan admitted that choosing one man to lead the next The Golden Bachelor season would be "so hard" during a recent appearance on "The Viall Files" podcast.

"So you have met all the men on TV, and everybody has such a great backstory," Joan told former The Bachelor star Nick Viall.

"To have a rich backstory makes you an interesting person, and it makes you a better Bachelor or Bachelorette."

Joan continued, "And so I think [Jonathan Rone] would be a really, really good bachelor. He's an adorable man."

Joan also shared, "I think [Mark Anderson] could be a good Bachelor, and I know that everybody loves Mark because they got to meet him as a dad to [Kelsey Anderson] first -- and what a great way to introduce yourself to the world."

Mark had participated in Kelsey's hometown date on The Bachelor's 28th season earlier this year, and the season ended with Joey and Kelsey getting engaged.

Joan went on to recommend [Gary Levingston], who would also "be a good Bachelor," according to The Golden Bachelorette star.

"It's hard for me to answer this because I love these men!" Joan gushed.

"I have such amazing relationships with these guys that [Dan Roemer] could be a good one and [Gregg Lassen] could be a good one. There are so many that could be good Bachelors!"

The mother and grandmother concluded, "You could pick any of those guys and you'd have an amazing show."

Joan, however, didn't name her fourth-place finisher, Jordan Heller, or any of her Final 3 bachelors: Chock Chapple, Guy Gansert and Pascal Ibgui.

Many fans speculate that Mark, an Army veteran, is the obvious choice for the next The Golden Bachelor star. Mark, however, just celebrated Halloween, and dressed in matching costumes, with One Tree Hill star Barbara Alyn Woods.

"If that's what he wants to do, I would fully support him," Kelsey told Us Weekly earlier this month of her dad potentially starring on the golden series.

"I think that my dad has grown so much through this journey of The Golden Bachelorette."

Kelsey said she would "100 percent be excited" for Mark and "support" him on his journey to find true love again following the 2018 death of her mother -- and Mark's late wife -- Denise Anderson.

"I think that he grew a lot from it and I'm just really proud of him," Kelsey shared of Mark's time on The Golden Bachelorette. "I'm also really thankful for Joan in helping my dad through all of this."

Joan chose to eliminate Mark before hometown dates because she didn't think they were in the same place in life.

Joan apparently thought Mark needed more time to heal from his late wife's passing, and she appeared to have a stronger connection with a couple of other guys, such as Chock and Guy.

"I know that after he left, he was pretty sad because he did really appreciate Joan and he really did care for her," Kelsey revealed.

"So I think he had a hard time leaving. But I think that he really valued his experience through it all and he had the best time."

Kelsey also noted how Mark had made "21 best friends," who helped him with his grieving.

Joan's The Golden Bachelorette season is nearing its end, and fans are hoping that Joan ended up with the man of her dreams.

Joan has made cryptic comments about her The Golden Bachelorette ending in the last couple of months, refusing to share specifics about whether she found her match.

Joan previously shared with Us that she found "all different kinds of love" on The Golden Bachelorette.

And when asked to spill more details about how her journey concluded on The View, Joan said, "I feel like everybody's journey is completely different, including mine."

Joan added, "Mine ended in a unique way, but the way it ended makes me very happy."

But Joan couldn't get away with that response when talking to several curious women.

When The View's co-hosts pushed Joan to reveal if she found love on the show, Joan quipped, "I am smiling!"
