Many people suspect that there are plenty of clues that the elderly gentleman chose Theresa Nist. Time will tell on that one, but there are clues to suggest that Teresa’s rival wasn’t the top pick. Speculation arose after they spotted a post on social media where Leslie used a yellow heart instead of a  pink or red one. If she’s not the top choice for Gerry Turner, then Bachelor Nation viewers hope that Leslie becomes the first Golden Bachelorette.

Leslie Fhima was an ice skater of note in her younger years. and she dated Prince. These days, the 64-year-old runs her own fitness company, runs marathons, and looks after herself. When the latest episode aired, all three ABC stars gushed about the natural beauty of Costa Rica.

Leslie Fhima Fans Are Angry Over Dangerous Activity

Rappelling can be dangerous, and it isn’t for the unfit or fainthearted. Granted, the fitness instructor is fit, but Bachelor Nation fans feel that’s no excuse for making her go down the watery and slippery side of the rock wall.  Especially, as she seemed a bit reluctant to do it in the first place. In the show, the older woman really struggled as she ended up almost under the waterfall, while Gerry was safely on the drier side.

On Reddit, an OP wrote about the danger that Leslie Fhima faced:

Why is Gerry placing Leslie on the waterfall side on the repel? It would have been easier for her had they changed sides/lines. Anyone else feel this way?

Plenty of people felt that it was inconsiderate to place the woman close to the wet rocks.

  • Gerry kinda seems oblivious to those kind of things I’ve noticed. Not sure I’d want him as a partner.
  •  He thinks she is adventurous bc he enjoyed repelling lol. She’s afraid of heights. She didn’t seem to enjoy it at all. I definitely feel like his level of interest in these woman has more to do with how interested they are/making him feel than it does with who they are as people.
  • My husband, who really kind of hates the whole show, said cynically it was all set up by production so Gerry could see her in a wet t-shirt. 🤣🤣
  • Also, why do Gerry AND the show producers keep putting Leslie in situations that utterly terrify her? So she can cling to Gerry and feel safe with him? Both with the rappelling and the 4-wheelers, she clearly didn’t want to do either at first. Adrenaline and terror are not a terribly stable foundation for a relationship.

What are your thoughts about Gerry Turner getting the easier side to repel down the cliff? Do you think that it was just an oversight? Or, would production have deliberately done it for added drama? Do you think that it was a silly and dangerous activity to do with Leslie Fhima?? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned for more updates about The Golden Bachelor.
