I have no idea. I haven't seen it. But my daughter said, “Joan is your type.”
What is it about her that made your daughter think she's your type?
Well, my daughter, Taylor, obviously didn't know her. But Joan is attractive and kind, and my daughter knew a lot about her from seeing her on The Golden Bachelor. I think a big part of it is that I lost my loved one to cancer, and Joan lost hers to cancer too. But mainly, I think it was a kindness in her heart and that Joan puts family first.
How nervous were you going in to tonight's date, especially knowing that everyone was watching you and hoping you guys would kiss?
Well, I'm a 60-year-old man, so I kind of pride myself on not getting nervous. But when I was waiting for Joan at the train station [at Disneyland]…if I had any nerves, they were gone. Immediately, we hugged and I held her hand. There was a bond. It was sure nice to kiss her tonight. I did ask her, and I want everybody to know that I asked her. That was out of respect, because it did come up. She had said earlier, “My son said, 'Now don't go kissing guys on TV.'” So here we are on the first one-on-one date, and it's already happened. But it's about a relationship, feeling comfortable with someone, and enjoying the moment.
What do you hope to show other men who have gone through loss in their life and are struggling with what's next?
Well, it's interesting. Out of the 24 guys, we have personalities and body types from A to Z. You get to meet guys that are just incredible, and some of them don't have the confidence. They might've lost their loved ones and have not gotten over it. And the conversations that we've had…just telling them, "Go on with your life. Enjoy it." But it's at their own timeframe. They've got to process it, handle the grief and all that, but it's about enjoying life. I told the story about my grandmother who lost her husband when she was in her 50s and never dated again. I'm not going to do that. I'm going to live my life and hopefully find that right person. Hopefully, it's Joan. I've got some more roses to go through. But I was nervous tonight when she said I didn't see the signals, because you just never know.
