In a groundbreaking Australian first, The Golden Bachelor Australia has reimagined the classic fairytale of first love with a grown-up twist.
Hosted by beloved Australian television personality Samantha Armytage, The Golden Bachelor Australia has captured the extraordinary story of 61-year-old Sydneysider Barry “Bear” Myrden.
This uplifting new series explores the complexities, heartache, hope, and humour of finding love in the golden years.
At its heart is Bear, a charming 61-year-old widower who has experienced both the greatest love and the deepest loss. With his sons now grown, he’s ready to open his heart for a second chance at love.
Joining him are 20 accomplished, witty, and unapologetically honest women over 50, each determined to prove that it’s never too late to fall in love again.
Over nine captivating episodes, the group shares their stories, embarks on lavish dates (that only Boomers could afford), and discovers that love at this stage of life can be richer, bolder, and more meaningful than ever.
With so many strong connections forming, Bear must make heart-wrenching decisions, saying goodbye to some while following his heart toward one extraordinary woman in a dramatic and unforgettable finale.
The Golden Bachelor Australia offers more than just romance; it’s a fascinating insight into love through the lens of life experience.
Blending wisdom, humour, and vulnerability, the series challenges expectations of what “grandparents” should be, delivering an emotional, funny, and utterly compelling real-life romantic comedy with heart, laughter, and a touch of gold.
The Golden Bachelor Australia premieres Friday, the 14th of November at 7:30 pm NZDT only on Bravo and ThreeNow, with new episodes airing every Friday and Saturday.
