Pascal Ibgui Is A Character

During The Golden Bachelorette Episode 3, Joan Vassos‘ suitor Pascal Ibgui is starting to win some points with viewers. Although he had turned some people off with his focus on having plenty of money to whisk Joan away, he is starting to come back into good graces with fans. Originally, fans thought he might be too high maintenance with his expensive suits and eagerness to pawn off “work” on others. Likewise, others thought he was a little too smooth with the ladies for their liking. Jonathan even notes that some people are watchers and others are workers. He coined the phrase, “gazers and grazers” to demonstrate how Pascal and others weren’t the “cooks” of the bunch. However, when he goes on the one-on-one date with Joan, fans get a new perspective of Pascal.

Pascal Ibgui Gains Favor

In The Golden Bachelorette Episode 3, Joan Vassos gets to make a quick trip to “Paris” possible with a jet plane to Las Vegas. Although it wasn’t “home” for Pascal Ibgui, it was a magical trip to leave their cares behind. It mimicked the idea that Pascal had the means to take Joan to Paris at the drop of a hat. While they had a great time in their casino getaway, the dinner was the opportunity for Pascal to let down his guard. Instead of the hoity-toity facade he normally displays, he broke away the mask to reveal he lived a different life before America.

Likewise, he mentions that people often “judge a book by its cover” and he has an entire story. Peeling back the layers, he admits his childhood was riddled with pain. Not only was there a lack of money, but he also talked about not having parents who showed affection or encouragement. Even though he had a rough start, he learned to give himself affirmations of hope for a good future. Furthermore, he has pulled himself up by his bootstraps to create the posh Chicago hair salon he has now. Not only did he pull on Joan’s heartstrings, but he also helped Bachelor Nation fans understand how he became the man he is now. In the end, he received a rose after showing his heart on his “Pretty Woman” date.
