Chock Chapple Reunites with Fellow ‘Golden Bachelorette’ Stars in Chicago — See the Pics
Golden friendships!
Bachelor Nation got to know some incredible Golden men on the very first season of “The Golden Bachelorette” as they looked for love with Joan Vassos.
Joan ended up falling in love and getting engaged to Chock Chapple, but that wasn’t the only love found that season.
The Golden men formed strong friendships with one another during their time on the show and have stayed in touch ever since, often posting about their reunions online.
And over the weekend, Chock met up with some of his fellow “Golden Bachelorette” stars for a trip in Chicago.
As fans may know, last week Chock and Joan revealed online that he recently got his prostate removed due to a cancer scare.
So the Bachelor Nation star reassured in his post from the weekend, “Doc cleared me to travel, decided to meet the crew in Chicago. Pascal knows how to entertain. Great to see the guys, and KS is 105 degrees. Love this city!”
Chock reunited with Pascal Ibgui, Jordan Heller, Keith Gordon, Charles King, Kim Buike, Jack Lencioni, Gil Ramirez, Dan Roemer, and Bob Kilroy.
The group shared photos online of their fun reunion, showing them all going to a Cubs baseball game at Wrigley Field, going out on the town, working out together, enjoying some dessert, as well as a fun sushi night at home.
Followers filled the comments with their love for this mini reunion, writing things such as, “Love this! Friendship is the best medicine!”
One person shared, “So great that you are doing so well! Love how all you boys bonded! Lifelong friendships 🌹🌹🌹🌹”
Another added, “I love these golden friendships!!!” and someone chimed in, “This is awesome!!! 😎🙌🌹”
How fun! We love these friendships and seeing this mini Bachelor Nation reunion. It looks like everyone had a great time together!
