What Time Is ‘The Golden Bachelor’ Finale On Tonight? How To Watch ‘Golden Bachelor’ And ‘After The Final Rose’ Live And Online

The Golden Bachelor took a week off for Thanksgiving to give Bachelor Nation a nice little break, but boy are we thankful that it’s back.

Gerry Turner’s highly-anticipated season finale is nearly upon us, and franchise host Jesse Palmer promises an ending “so emotional it is going to have all of America in tears.”

In the supersized episode, we’ll watch Gerry’s two remaining women — Leslie Fhima and Theresa Nist — meet his family in Costa Rica. And if all goes according to plan, his journey will end in an engagement to the (second) love of his life. As previews showed, however, Gerry isn’t getting his happily ever after without some serious heartbreak.

An emotional finale teaser showed the 72-year-old sobbing, saying, “I think I made a mistake” and “I took a really good person and I broke their heart.” In an especially devastating scene, he cries in front of the camera, saying, “The only time I’ve ever felt worse in my whole life is when my wife passed away and this is a goddamn close second.”

The Golden Bachelor host assures Bachelor Nation that the final episode is “really is unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.” So you won’t want to miss a second of the season’s dramatic conclusion.
