Joan Vasoss and Chock Chapple aren’t rushing to get weding planning done. A year after meeting on ‘The Golden Bachelorette’ they have yet to get planning.

ABC has been releasing plenty of information about upcoming Bachelor Nation projects. Joan Vassos wants to get in on the fun, too. The first-ever lead of The Golden Bachelorette recently updated fans on her wedding plans. While Vassos is still with Chock Chapple, the man she picked at the end of her season, she insists they are in no rush to tie the knot. The wedding update has left Joan Vassos’ fans concerned.

Joan Vassos and Chock Chapple aren’t planning their wedding just yet

Joan Vasoss has an update on her wedding plans for her fans, but it’s probably not the update they were hoping for. Vassos sat down with Life & Style recently to chat about life. She told the publication that she and Chapple haven’t actually nailed down any wedding plans. In fact, she insists. They haven’t even begun talking about it. There is no location, date, or theme picked out yet.

She insists that there is nothing wrong between them. Vassos contends that they’ve just been busy with other things. Vassos is already wrapped up in planning a different wedding, and she has several upcoming plans that will keep her busy through the fall. Much of her attention has gone to her son’s wedding. Nicholas Vassos is set to wed in August. She revealed that she and Chapple have some events in the fall to look forward to, as well. Once winter sets in, she is confident that planning will get underway.

The reality TV personality seems to be sticking to her original plan

While some The Golden Bachelorette fans are concerned about the lack of movement in the couple’s relationship, it actually tracks with what Vassos said before flying out to California to film season 1 of The Golden Bachelorette. In May 2024, Joan Vassos told CNN that fans were unlikely to see a second, quick golden wedding. At the time, she said she wasn’t opposed to leaving the show engaged but did want to spend some time seeing her beau operate in the real world before making any legal commitment.

So far, she’s done just that. She and Chapple left the show engaged. Since then, they’ve been spending time together but don’t reside in the same state. They actually seem to be enjoying the dynamic of long-distance courting.

Vassos is no stranger to commtiment. She was married to her late husband, John Vassos, for 32 years. He died in 2021 from pancreatic cancer. Chapple is divorced once and lost a long-term partner. He was engaged for nine years before appearing on the show. Chapple’s late fiancée died of cancer in 2022.
