Joan Vassos Narrows Down Contestants on 'The Golden Bachelorette'

In a pivotal episode, Joan eliminates three suitors, preparing for upcoming hometown visits.

Joan Vassos, the 61-year-old Golden Bachelorette, sent three men home this week, reducing the pool to four contestants.
Joan's decision followed emotional dates and consultations with former Bachelorette Trista Sutter, who advised her on vulnerability and moving forward.
Mark Anderson, a widower and Army veteran, was eliminated after a yacht date where Joan felt something was missing in their connection.
The group date at a bowling alley saw tensions rise, particularly with contestant Chock, who was criticized for monopolizing Joan's attention.
Remaining contestants Pascal, Chock, Guy, and Jordan received roses, advancing to the next stage of hometown visits.
