Did Matt James' Mom Get a Rose on the Premiere of The Golden Bachelor?

Find out if former Bachelor Matt James' mom got a rose on the premiere episode of The Golden Bachelor. The rose ceremony was a difficult one for Golden Bachelor Gary Turner when he made his final choice and narrowed the field of potential loves to 16. But was Matt James' mother Patty among them? Take a look. Susan, Susan, will you accept this rose? I will. Thank you. Ladies, I'm sorry, but if you did not receive a rose, please take a moment and say your goodbyes. Good luck today. Have a wonderful time. Thank you. I'll be cheering for you. Thank you. All right. Thank you so much. There are some very sad moments in front of me. Congratulations and good luck with everything. The rose ceremonies will get more and more difficult. All right. I wish you the best. Thank you. But I can't wait for the next chapter of this journey to evolve. Wow. That was a tough moment. There are 16 beautiful, poised, elegant women here. I'm thrilled about that. But what I'm most looking for is to get to the next layer. Gary, you are amazing. That's the consensus. You are amazing. You made us feel really special and we're really happy you're here. Weeks after 71-year-old Gary Turner was announced as the leading man of the new addition to the franchise, the list of ladies was revealed. And 70-year-old retired real estate professional Patty had already been in the Bachelor orbit. Her son Matt James was the one looking for love on season 25 of the romance competition. After his mom was revealed as one of the Golden Bachelor contestants, Matt reacted to the news on his Instagram story. But Patty wasn't the only one, of course, who was ready for her own happily ever after. As women hailing from all over the U.S., from a range of professional backgrounds, were also ready for their shot at saying I do. Well, I've been ready to find love for a long time, people. I've been ready for a long time. I'm looking for someone that cares about family like I do. You know, I don't watch anything with old people on it because I don't want to get old. I'm open. Age is just a number and not a limitation. Can't wait to see how golden it gets. The Golden Bachelor airs Thursdays on ABC.
