Theresa Nist believes Turner was expressing some sort of hidden hostility toward her. 'The Golden Bachelor' alum Theresa Nist claimed that her ex-husband, Gerry Turner, threatened to chop her up and hide her body in a shed. Theresa Nist said Gerry Turner once said he was going to chop up her body and put it in a shed during their short-lived romance. "We took a walk around this lake called Pretty Lake, and we were coming to the end of it. And he said — this is really bizarre — he said, ‘You see that shed up there?’" she said on the Nov. 4 episode of the "Dear Shandy" podcast."I said, ‘Yeah.’ He said, ‘Well, that’s where I’m going to hide your body after I kill you and chop you up, and he wasn't laughing. I said, 'Well, if this was his idea of a joke, that was pretty dark humor.'"I just felt like there was animosity in that statement that was underlying," she said. "Like, maybe if he could have gotten rid of me somehow." She said she didn't believe he would have actually killed her. "No, I don’t think that was true. It’s not true, but it just spoke to an underlying feeling about me," she said.ALSO READ: 'I am so glad he didn't...': Erika Kirk recalls seeing husband Charlie in hospital immediately after his assassination Live EventsWas Gerry Turner expressing hostility?Theresa Nist believes Turner was expressing some sort of hidden hostility toward her. “I just felt like there was animosity in that statement that was underlying,” she said. “Like, maybe if he could have gotten rid of me somehow.”However, Nist doesn’t believe Turner would have actually killed her. “No, I don’t think that was true. It’s not true, but it just spoke to an underlying feeling about me,” she added. Nist met Turner while competing for his affection on Season 1 of The Golden Bachelor in 2023. Turner proposed to her on the ABC show, and the couple married a year later in a televised ceremony.Their love story, however, was short-lived. Just three months after their wedding, they announced their divorce.“Theresa and I have had a number of heart-to-heart conversations and looked closely at our situation,” Turner told Good Morning America viewers. “We’ve mutually decided it’s probably time to dissolve our marriage.”ALSO READ: Amid comet 3I/ATLAS growing mystery, why Kim Kardashian was invited to join alien research team for interstellar objectTheresa Nist on her love lifeDespite the split, Nist urged viewers to stay hopeful about finding love later in life. “We’ve received so much love and support from people who watched The Golden Bachelor, and so many said it gave them hope,” she said. “We want none of that to change for anybody.”Both Nist and Turner were previously married and widowed, each with children from their late spouses. During their brief marriage, they continued living separately — Nist in New Jersey and Turner in Indiana — to stay near their families. The long-distance arrangement ultimately didn’t work.ALSO READ: Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has changed course?

She later told Us Weekly she felt “very sad” to hear that he “felt empty and trapped.”“I wish he had said something and just ended it,” she said. “At least now I understand why he was so hurtful to me so many times. And I will say this — those in glass houses should not throw stones. I do wish him all the best.” Turner has since moved on and is now engaged to Lana Sutton. The couple announced their engagement in October.Add as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!
