Sorry, but Ana Navarro from The View is tired of discussing The Golden Bachelor. In the conversation about the ABC show that took place on Friday, November 3, Navarro, who is 51 years old, interrupted the segment to pose a single important question to producer Brian Teta.
"Brian, when will The Golden Bachelor show be over? I'm tired of talking about it every Friday," she inquired. Teta replied, "We still have a few more weeks, but we might have a couple of extra episodes just for you."
Sunny Hostin, one of The View cohosts, added, "Why don't we have Gerry Turner, the star of The Golden Bachelor, come in for another interview?"
"I suggest organizing a viewing party where we can make [Ana] watch," cohost Sara Haines proposed. Whoopi Goldberg jokingly suggested having the interview on her day off. "How about we do it on a Friday?" Goldberg, 67, quipped.
In the Thursday, November 2nd episode of the ABC dating show, Turner, 72, went on hometown dates with the remaining three women: Faith Martin, Leslie Fhima, and Theresa Nist.

Despite the successful hometown dates, Turner's visit with Martin, 61, stood out as particularly special. Following their meeting with Martin's sister, Beth, the couple openly expressed their love for each other, a sentiment previously unspoken by Turner to any other women on the show. The episode concluded with an enticing cliffhanger, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the revelation of whether the final rose of the night would be given to Martin or Nist, 70 (Fhima, 64, had already received a rose in a previous scene).
Before the episode aired, Turner expressed the significance of hometown dates for him.
"I haven't met the family of someone I was falling in love with since 1968," he shared exclusively with We on Tuesday, October 31. "I'm genuinely excited about this because family holds great importance to me. I still have three women left, and all of them have confessed their love for me. However, it's been so long since I experienced those initial emotions with my wife, so I'm venturing into unfamiliar territory."
The Golden Bachelor made its debut in September, where Turner expressed his desire to find love following the loss of his late wife, Toni. Unfortunately, their shared dream of living by the lake came to an abrupt end when Toni passed away from a bacterial infection in 2017.
During the series premiere, Turner openly shared, "Whenever I gaze at that lake, I can't help but think that it was her dream. It's what she deserved. Why am I standing here alone?" He further added, "It's been six years since Toni's passing. No one can ever take her place, but the unwavering love of my daughters and granddaughters have helped me overcome a dark period in my life. I am ready for another chance at love, and I believe that person is out there."
The Golden Bachelor airs on ABC Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET.
