It turns out he joined the latter, butthe rumors about becoming the lead haven’t dissipated, even after his recent elimination.
The Golden Bachelorette’s Mark Anderson was asked about whether he’d consider joiningThe Golden Bachelorif ABC offered the role to him.

Mark was recently asked byExtraaboutThe Golden Bachelorand whether he’d consider joining that spin-off if ABC offered the role to him. He was honest in his answer and said, “I can’t think of saying no.“The possibility of joiningThe Golden Bachelorhas been on his mind, and he’s hoping that “when that time comes, hopefully that decision will be an easy one.” If offered, though, he admitted he would need to talk to his kids first before saying yes.
Before joiningThe Golden Bachelorette, Mark’s kids gave him their support to date again after their mother passed away. He acknowledged how difficult it was to ask them if he could re-enter the dating world. Soto already have their approval now if he’s the nextGolden Bachelorlead, “it’s great"because it “lightens the load a little bit.” Mark also said he would talk to his future son-in-law Joey since Kelsey’s fiancé knows what it’s like to lead aBachelorseason.

I can’t think of saying no, but it’s definitely something I’ve thought about, and I’ll continue thinking about it. And when that time comes, hopefully that decision will be an easy one. I gotta talk to my kids again and talk to them about it, and the rest of my family. This journey was wonderful for me, and to be able to talk to some people about it, I’ve got a pretty close connection to Joey, so I could talk to him about his journey.
It’s wonderful [that Joey and Kelsey support Mark joining The Golden Bachelor]. It lightens the load a little bit. The hardest question I’ve had in my life was asking my kids if it was okay with them for me to date again before I came on the show. So to already have their support, it’s great.
