The 71-year-old Indiana resident took the stage during Charity Lawson's 'Men Tell All' special and explained why he doesn't expect a new romance to 'look like the relationship I had with [late wife] Toni.'
During his onstage chat with Palmer, Turner joked about his lack of social media prowess and the fact that fans have referred to him as a “grand zaddy.” After he was asked whether his season would include overnight dates, Turner said that it likely would but that these might be different from previous shows’ fantasy-suite moments.
Palmer asked if Turner had any advice for other couples navigating marriage, and the Golden Bachelor replied, “Look at your spouse every day, and tell ’em you love them because the day comes too soon for one of you that you can’t do that. I would give anything to be able to do that one more time.” As for whether he can find a love like that twice in a lifetime, Turner explained, “I don’t think that’s what I’m looking for. What I look for at the age of 70 is different from what I looked for in high school and college. So, I believe I’ll find my person — the new person that will make me whole again. And I think we’ll knit a wonderful relationship. But I don’t think it’ll look like the relationship I had with Toni. And I don’t think it would be right to do it that way.
