Joan didn’t last for long, as she ended up leaving the season early to tend to a family emergency. ThoughJoan expected that to be the end of herBachelorjourney, fate had other ideas in store for her. Though she was only one of several fan favorites from Gerry’s season, Joan wascast asThe Golden Bachelorette. Her season recently premiered, but it’s already clear that Joan made a shocking mistake that she may regret.

Joan’s Mistake
Spoilers Ahead
Though Joan seemed truly excited about meeting Kelsey’s father, the reality television reporterReality Steverevealed that Mark was notthe man who won Joan’s final rose. It’s hard to understand because several episodes ofThe Golden Bacheloretteseason 1 have aired, andJoan seemed to like Mark;they even shared more than one steamy kiss, but she clearly liked someone else even more. It’ll be interesting to see how far Mark goes, and what happens to turn Joan off from him.
Will Mark Be The Golden Bachelor?
He’d Be A Great Bachelor Nation Lead
They say that everything happens for a reason, and fans should remind themselves of that to soothe their disappointment over Joan’s elimination of Mark. ThoughMark didn’t win Joan’s heartonThe Golden Bacheloretteseason 1, he could be cast asThe Golden Bachelorseason 2. Now that he has appeared on twoBachelorNation shows, Mark is practically franchise royalty and would make a fantastic lead. Joan may come to regret sending Mark home early.
