The Golden BachelorettestarMark Anderson seems like the ideal man, but I think he could have ulterior motives for appearing onThe Golden Bachelorspin-off, and might be an unlikely villainif he becomes thenextThe Golden Bachelor. In my opinion, Mark’s a handsome man with a playful spirit, but he’s already gotten a taste of fame because he’s Kelsey Anderson’s father. He seems like a wonderful dad, but maybe he’s hooked on Bachelor Nation notoriety. If he’s cast asThe Golden Bachelor, he might be just like Gerry Turner, who seemed to be more into fame than his former partner, Theresa Nist.
The Bachelor’s Joey Graziadeipopped the question during season 28, and Kelsey accepted. These days, the duo seem to be trying a little too hard to show the world how ecstatically happy they are. However, there does seem to be genuine love there. As Joey enjoys hisDancing With The Starsdebutwith his partner Jenna Johnson, there are a lot of questions about his relationship with Kelsey. At the same time, Mark is considered the perfect suitor for Joan (and possible Golden Bachelor), but maybe he’s not.

Mark Anderson May Be A Clout Chaser
Is He Really Looking For True Love With Joan Vassos?
Markseems like an adorable guy. In the Instagram post above, he’s as cute as can be while dancing in a shark costume. Who doesn’t want a fun and silly mate? He seems perfect, and that’s where the waters turn choppy and treacherous. No one is perfect, so Mark may be playing a part. Will Joan be swimming with a shark? It’s not impossible.
Yes, he could have a heart of gold, but there’s also a chance that he’s appearing on the dating reality series to get attention. It’s not uncommon for people to appear on these series for clout alone.

He’s a man who’s got so much going for him, and chasing clout isn’t a crime. I don’t mean to disrespect a good man. However, he may have his own reasons for doing the show. Mark served his country in the military - he had a long marriage to his wife, Denise Anderson, who sadly passed away. The retired army veteran is currently 57 years old, and he hails from Leesville, Louisiana. The issue is that a man can be a loving father and serve his country,but also be chasing clout- people are complicated.

Some of Joan’s suitors seem to be doing just that, orusingThe Golden Bachelorettemansion as a party palace. According to spoilers, Mark isn’t picked by Joan - she goes in another direction. This makes him a very viable candidate forThe Golden Bachelor. On that show, he’d be an attractive and charming presence. However, since he reportedlycouldn’t get it together with Joan, as perReality Steve,there’s always the chance that she got a bad feeling about him. Maybe she felt he wasn’t really in it for love. It might be just the same onThe Golden Bachelor.
Mark Anderson May Not Be Over His Late Wife, Denise
Maybe Love’s Not In The Cards For Him
The death of a spouse is trauma. For years,The Golden Bachelorette’s Mark Andersonlived with Denise - they shared everything. They loved each other, going through life’s ups and downs together. A wife or husband is precious - something beautiful. For this reason, it’s quite possible that Mark will never get over Denise. He may consider her the love of his life. Any other love he finds may not compete with what he had. This is the danger of casting him asThe Golden Bachelor.
He may still love his wife - of course he does!
While he could be lonely and ready to try again, the reality of dating on TV, rather than organically meeting a partner and clicking with them, may be too much for him. He’s watched his daughter do all that - he reportedly tried to make things work with Joan, only to be sent him. So, the odds aren’t in his favor.
The love I feel illuminates me, giving my life a higher purpose. There’s something spiritual about real love - it takes me to another dimension. Mark likely felt that type of soul mate connection with Denise. To find it again would be a miracle. So, while Mark could be an exciting lead onThe Golden Bachelor, he’s a man who has loved and lost. The past may cast a long shadow.
