Before Theresa, 70, and Gerry, 72, appeared on the stage, viewers got a glimpse at his proposal on The Golden Bachelor and when he said: “You’re not the right person for me to live with,” then took a long pause, convincing Theresa that she wasn’t the one.
However, Gerry continued his speech: “You’re the person I can’t live without.”
Once the soon-to-be-married couple sat down, Kelly immediately wanted answers regarding that long pause.
The US daytime TV co-host said: “We just saw the clip of the moment and Theresa you were all of us. I was like, ‘Oh this is such a weird clip for us to use.’ We all thought you were getting the brush off.
“Gerry, do the producers force you to do that? They make you drag it on like that and keep us all in suspense.”
The star was completely honest: “They suggested it would be really great TV. They didn’t realize it would be horrible to Theresa.”
Theresa added: “It was so mean!”
During their appearance, Gerry looked dapper in a gray suit with a light purple collared shirt and matching tie.

‘WORST WEDDING PLAYLIST’
In the comments, critics shared their opinions loud and clear.
One wrote: “Someone else made this up. Where are all the songs from the 60s to the 80s?”
“Are your granddaughters choosing the songs?!” another joked.
A third commenter slammed: “This isn’t authentic? Two people born when they were would be mixing in songs from the 70s as well as some old classics. Post another picture when you actually have something we can believe. Maybe Michael Buble singing Home or The Way You Look Tonight.
“Don’t do something unclassy please!!! After all the efforts that went into the first ever Golden Couple.”
Someone else joked: “Worst wedding playlist in history.”
“Where are the classics? It’s your wedding but not at all what I thought your playlist would be,” another person joked.
