[The Golden Bachelorette Spoilers: This report contains updated spoilers for Joan's The Golden Bachelorette season -- including Joan's actual winner and runner-up.]


Joan's The Golden Bachelorette season just premiered on September 18, and Joan was shown giving her coveted First Impression Rose to the outgoing and charismatic Keith Gordon, whom ABC dubbed a "girl dad."

Joan said she felt very "hopeful" about finding love after talking to most of her 24 bachelors on Night 1, and the episode ended with the 61-year-old private school administrator narrowing down her pool of men to only 18 senior suitors.

In a preview of what's to come on The Golden Bachelorette, Joan appears to say, "I love you," to Mark Anderson, and she tells the cameras, "I've only been in love with one person -- more than one now."

When asked if she can confidently say that she found love on her season, Joan admitted to Us Weekly that's a "hard question" to answer.

"The journey ended exactly like it should. I feel like I found a lot of love and there's all different kinds of love," Joan explained to the magazine.

"I feel like every one of these men are going to be in my life forever. We shared really, really intimate things about our lives and we are bonded."

The mother and grandmother therefore added, "So I think I found a lot of love actually this season."

Joan said she simply wanted to meet a man whom she could see "a future" with in "the real world" outside of The Bachelor bubble.

"I didn't want to go through all of this and be at the same place I was when I came to the mansion," Joan explained.

Joan, who lost her husband John Vassos to cancer in 2021 after 32 years of marriage, said she's excited for the rest of her journey to play out on TV.

Joan shared that while she hoped to find a partner with whom she can spend the rest of her life, she wasn't necessarily banking on an engagement and returning home to her family in Maryland with a diamond engagement ring on her finger.

"I said all along I didn't need to leave engaged," Joan recently told People, noting, however, that she really wanted to leave the show "in a committed relationship."

The Golden Bachelorette spoilers have just been updated by Reality Steve spoiler blogger Steve Carbone after he had reported incorrect spoilers earlier this summer.

So will Joan find true love for the second time in her life and get engaged on The Golden Bachelorette?!
