Gerry only has two bachelorettes left in the running for his heart: Leslie Fhima, a 64-year-old fitness instructor from Minneapolis, MN, and Theresa Nist, a 69-year-old financial services professional from Shrewsbury, NJ.

ABC executive Rob Mills dished about The Golden Bachelor finale and what viewers can expect to see during the November 27 episode of the "Bachelor Party" podcast.

"The finale is really wonderful... but there is also a breakup, as you see from the promos when [Gerry] is crying, and it is devastating," Rob revealed.

Rob went on to tease of the two-hour finale broadcast airing on Thursday, November 30, "What I will say... is it will definitely be a shocking night, to say the least."

The executive continued, "I don't want to say anything more."

Rob said even if a person isn't interested in The Bachelor franchise, he or she would probably find the finale captivating and engaging.

"Trust me. You will be entertained, and your jaw will be on the ground by the end," Rob concluded.

The Golden Bachelor host Jesse Palmer also said on Live with Kelly & Mark that the finale is going to include "the most emotional goodbye that anyone has ever seen on The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor in Paradise."

Jesse explained how Gerry's emotion in the finale is "as raw as it gets" and he'll certainly tug at viewer's heartstrings when either Leslie or Theresa is let go in second place.

But Gerry shared on the November 21 episode of the "Life is Short with Justin Long" podcast that his season is going to have "a very happy ending" after all.

A preview of the finale shows Gerry -- who said, "I love you," to both of his Final 2 women --  looking at an engagement ring and agonizing over having to break someone's heart.

At one point, Gerry even cries to Jesse about how he may have made a "mistake."

But according to Gerry, he has no regrets and The Golden Bachelor ended exactly the way it was supposed to.

"I enjoy how it ends," Gerry told actor Justin Long. "I'm completely comfortable with the way it ended. I have no second guesses. It's perfect!"

Gerry insisted that the woman he chose is his match, even though he had developed feelings of love for multiple women.

"When I was down to three women [including Faith Martin] and I had genuine connections with them, you know, I loved them in my own way," Gerry said.

"[But] it's important to remember that when I got to the end of the journey, I did find the one person who was right for me. Yes, there was a lot of pain and a lot of sorrow, but I had to constantly remind myself, 'This is my own journey, and I need to get to that final goal -- the right one -- for me.'"

During a recent interview with his local Indianapolis Star newspaper, Gerry revealed he's still with his winning bachelorette.

"I picked the greatest woman in the world," Gerry gushed.

And Gerry said he's in a much better place, mentally and emotionally, than he had been prior to signing up for The Golden Bachelor.

"I'm happier today, by far," Gerry admitted.


"There's so much more opportunity and I've gotten to know so many great people. I've had great experiences; and my family has had great experiences along with me that they would have never been afforded."

The Golden Bachelor star reiterated how "so many positive things" have happened to him since agreeing to be the senior spinoff's star.

Gerry also recently confirmed on Jimmy Kimmel Live, "Yeah, [I'm in love]. Yes."

Show host Jimmy Kimmel joked about how Gerry probably wasn't supposed to give that away, and so Gerry played coy and quipped, "But I didn't say with whom, you know, I love my daughters."

Back in September, Gerry seemed thrilled about his life and relationship status during an appearance on Good Morning America.

When asked if he's in love, Gerry replied with a huge smile on his face, "Well, if I didn't, would I be sitting here smiling from ear to ear?! I can't tell you I did, though."
