Overview

  • During the June 5 episode of iHeartRadio’s Almost Famous Podcast, Nist rejected Turner’s assertion that his Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia diagnosis influenced their April 2024 divorce, saying health “held zero weight.”
  • Nist said Turner downplayed his prognosis when he first told her about the cancer, which led her to believe it would never affect their marriage.
  • She suggested Turner may have invoked his illness to elicit public sympathy after their split and said she remains “angry” at his comments.
  • Since finalizing their divorce in June 2024, the former Golden Bachelor couple have grown distant, with Nist declining Turner’s efforts to maintain a friendship.
  • Both have moved on: Nist is seeing someone she met on a dating app and Turner is dating Lana, a retired teacher.
