Joan Vassos is opening up about how her journey on “The Golden Bachelorette” helped aid her grief over the loss of her husband.“My husband passed away during COVID, and I really didn’t embrace the whole mourning thing,” the 61-year-old told People Tuesday. “I was in charge of being strong.
I just buckled down and ignored it.”Vassos’s husband of 32 years, John, died in January 2021 from pancreatic cancer. At the time of his death, the reality star looked into group therapy but was unable to find any due to the pandemic.
Vassos — who appeared on Gerry Turner’s season of “The Golden Bachelor”and exited during Week 3 — shared that it was time to acknowledge the pain once she started making connections on “The Golden Bachelorette.”She said of her grief: “I had to face it.”“It was in my face that I was feeling really guilty, honestly, about having feelings for somebody else,” Vassos confessed. “I almost felt like I was cheating on John, which is crazy because he’s passed away.”The mom of four also recounted that before John died, he told her: “I want you to find somebody.
You are the greatest wife in the world. I don’t want you to be alone. I want you to find somebody.”Vassos felt “uneasy” about moving on more than three years later.
