'Golden Bachelor' Stars Lay Out an Unconventional Path After the Finale

They say a symbolic ring they discussed off camera reflects a mutual plan to let the relationship grow without a set timeline.

Overview

  • The lead says he and his final partner aligned in advance on a non‑engagement ring and what it would signify during their overnight date.
  • Jeweler Neil Lane describes the three‑stone, cushion‑cut design with more than 30 diamonds totaling about 3.5 carats and symbolism for unity and individuality.
  • The couple describe themselves as in love and are planning trips together, including time in Las Vegas and Michigan, with more travel ahead.
  • In post‑show interviews, they emphasize being in their 60s, prioritizing family and flexibility, and choosing to move at a natural pace.
  • Separately, the lead reflects that another relationship on the season ended due to differing expectations about the timing and form of commitment.
