Theresa Nist and Gerry Turnerโ€™s journey came to an end โ€” but not because of his health battle.

The reality star who found love with Turner on Season 1 of โ€œThe Golden Bachelorโ€ revealed that the pair โ€œabsolutelyโ€ didnโ€™t split over his cancer diagnosis.

โ€œIt was a zero factor, zero. Absolutely. I was just so surprised that he even said that,โ€ Nist said on Thursdayโ€™s episodeย of โ€œThe Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous Podcast.โ€ โ€œI knew about the cancer a long time ago. And the way Gary presented it to me was that, โ€˜The doctor said that Iโ€™m going to die of old age before this cancer gets to me.’โ€

โ€œHe bluffed it off, like it really wasnโ€™t that important,โ€ she continued. โ€œAnd he had no symptoms, and he still doesnโ€™t. So we never had a conversation that said, โ€˜Oh my gosh, youโ€™re sick. I canโ€™t stay with you now. I have to leave.โ€™ That never happened.โ€

Turner and Nist first got engaged at the end of 2023 on the show before saying โ€œI doโ€ on a TV special in January 2024. But by April of that year, the exes announced in anย interview withย โ€œGood Morning Americaโ€ that they were divorcing.

In December 2024, Turner revealed he had been diagnosed with a blood cell cancer, Waldenstrรถmโ€™s macroglobulinemia, claiming it played into their split.

The reality star also noted that he and Nist each wanted to live close to their families in different states.

โ€œWhen you are hit with that kind of news and the shock wears off after a few days or a few weeks and you regroup and you realize whatโ€™s important to you, thatโ€™s where you start to move forward,โ€ Turner told People. โ€œAnd I hope that people understand in retrospect now that that had a huge bearing on my decisions and I think probably Theresaโ€™s as well.โ€

โ€œThey interviewed him the day before they interviewed me,โ€ Nist continued on the podcast. โ€œAnd right before my interview, they contacted me, and they said, โ€˜Hey, we want to talk to you right now, because Gerry just came out and said that his illness was the reason you broke up.โ€™ And I go, โ€˜What?โ€™ I said, โ€˜No, it wasnโ€™t that.โ€™ There was zero conversation about that being in it.โ€

Although, at the time, the New Jersey resident felt maybe Turner believed what he was saying.

โ€œIf that was the reason, it was in his mind only, never discussed as a reason. He said it was a factor that weighed heavily into my decision. And I would imagine Theresaโ€™s, too,โ€ Nist confessed. โ€œHe just imagined. But it had nothing to do with it. Nothing. I would have never left my husband over in illness. I stayed with my husband, Billy. I mean, for years he was sick, and he passed away at home. He was in hospice. I mean, it was really pretty bad. But I would never leave โ€ฆ Thatโ€™s just not me. That wouldnโ€™t happen.โ€

Turner, meanwhile, revealed in April, per TMZ, that heโ€™s datingย a retired school teacher named Lana,ย who also lives in Indiana.

โ€œI really am happy for him,โ€ Nist, whoโ€™s also dating, stated. โ€œAnd if he had to find his person by going this circuitous route, then he did, then it was successful. He found someone that really suits him, and thatโ€™s wonderful. So I think it worked out the way it was supposed to work out.โ€

In September, the finance whiz made it clear she had no hard feelingsย toward Turner.

โ€œSo Gerry and I have spoken,โ€ Nist exclusively told The Post in September 2024. โ€œWe donโ€™t speak regularly.ย I would sayย I wish him all the best, and I can see that he has so many friends, and Iโ€™m so happy for him that he does.โ€

โ€œI truly hope he finds his person,โ€ she added, โ€œbecause he wants that, and he deserves that, and Iโ€™m rooting for him. Iโ€™m in his corner.โ€

At the time, Nist shared what she was looking for in her perfect suitor.

โ€œSense of humor,โ€ she detailed. โ€œLetโ€™s laugh together. Smart. Somebody smart. And then I have to be physically attracted to the person, so there has to be chemistry. And thatโ€™s something that you can not define, itโ€™sย undefinable. You just either are attracted to someone, or youโ€™re not.โ€

Nist noted, โ€œItโ€™s just the ability to have fun together and to support each other, make each other laugh, and have each otherโ€™s backs.โ€
