The couple then clarified that this means they’re getting a divorce. They told Chang that they’d made a prenuptial agreement and that the rings they received for their engagement and wedding would be returned to ABC.
Despite Turner and Nist’s vague remarks during Friday’s interview, things got even more confusing when Chang noted that the couple were holding hands during their divorce announcement.
“Did you fall out of love?” Chang asked.
“I still love this person,” Turner said, gesturing to Nist. “There is no doubt in my mind. I am still in love with her. I root for her every day.”
The older couple also emphasized that although they’re divorcing, they still believe in finding love — regardless of age.
“We say, don’t give up,” Nist said. “Stay in it, stay hopeful, because we are.”
“Bachelor” fans had their own interpretations of the weird interview and were happy to share them on X, formerly Twitter. To read their takes on the couple’s confusing announcement, scroll down.
At that age, who wants to give up their life and family to go and live with some stranger that just came into your life? You don’t have much time left. Spend it with family.
