Bradley Cooper and Eddie Murphy? Yeah, they’re just like us. They can’t get enough of The Golden Bachelor.
Eddie Murphy, at 63, spilled the beans to The New York Times. He was all in for Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist’s love saga last fall. But, oh boy, was he miffed when they split three months post-January nuptials. "I watched that s—t," he said, "thinking, ‘This is sweet, love blooming in their later years. Nice!’ And then bam, they’re done. Same old story."
Us Weekly caught up with the show’s darlings, Kathy Swarts and Susan Noles. Despite the drama, they believe the show’s heart—love and hope—beats strong.
Kathy, while chatting about their "Golden Hour" podcast, got real. "It’s about love, adventure, and, yeah, finding love." She sighed, "Wish I had found it. Susan too. But that’s the gist—finding love."
Oh, and about that pic? Susan Noles, Bradley Cooper, Kathy Swarts, Eddie Murphy. Quite the lineup, huh?
Susan had a moment with Cooper in April. "He’s like, ‘I’m a huge fan.’ I was floored," she gushed. "Turns out, folks from all walks of life, even the youngsters, are tuning in. I even officiated a wedding, surrounded by 20-somethings all excited about the show. ‘Are you and Kathy really friends?’ they’d ask. Yep, it’s a hit across generations."
Kathy shared a heartwarming tale from her son’s wedding. "Susan officiated, and afterwards, it was like a fan meet-and-greet. ‘You’ve changed our lives,’ they said. ‘Your friendship, the hope you give…’ That’s the magic of our show and podcast. Spreading hope, joy, and the quest for love."
Dream guests for their podcast? "Kris Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner," Kathy revealed, inspired by viral memes. "Imagine that chat!"
And Susan? "Lunch first," she insisted. "I’ve been wanting to meet Kris for ages."
Kathy’s aiming high. "Why not shoot for the moon? Lunch, podcast, the works."
Susan’s curious about Kris’s whereabouts. "Girlfriend, where you been?" she’d ask. Kathy, meanwhile, has a unique question for Caitlyn Jenner. "Do you see me when you look in the mirror? And can I borrow some of that athletic prowess?"
