The Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner enthusiastically shared on Thursday that he recently met Kris Jenner.
The 72-year-old Iowa hunk – who thinks he’s met ‘the one’ on the popular dating show – uploaded a photo of himself posing with his arm wrapped around the ‘momager’ 67, to Instagram.
‘I met Kris! We both have shows tonight for you to watch,” Turner wrote in the caption.
He was referring to this week’s episode of the Golden Bachelor and Hulu’s The Kardashians, both of which aired Thursday.
He also made himself an honorary Kardashian when he jokingly told his followers, “Call me Kerry forever.”
Epic! Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner enthusiastically shared on Thursday that he recently met famed “momager” Kris Jenner
In July, it was revealed that Turner had been chosen as the first senior lead for The Golden Bachelor, a spin-off of the hit ABC show The Bachelor.
Turner is a widow; his wife (and high school sweetheart) Toni died in 2017.
At the time, he revealed he was looking for an “energetic” partner and hoped to find “the one” among the 22 women vying for his heart.
Episode five aired on Thursday and saw Turner eliminate three of the six women still on the show.
Although Turner is looking for love, Kris has been in a long-term relationship with businessman Corey Gamble, 42, since 2014.
The two started dating shortly after Kris divorced Caitlyn Jenner in 2013 after 23 years of marriage.
Before Caitlyn, Kris was married to the late attorney Robert Kardashian Sr., who was part of OJ Simpson’s “Dream Team” of attorneys that represented him in 1995 when he was charged with murder for the brutal slaying of his ex-wife Nicole Brown. Simpson and her boyfriend Ron Goldman. He was acquitted.
Kris and Robert married in 1978 and later split after she admitted cheating on him with footballer Todd Waterman in 1989.
Robert was the one who filed for divorce and it was finalized in 1991.
Despite the split, Kris managed to build an amicable co-parenting relationship with Robert for the sake of their four children: Kourtney, 44, Kim, 43, Khloe, 39, and Robert, 36.
Robert tragically passed away from esophageal cancer in September 2003, just two months after being diagnosed. He was 59.
On last week’s episode of The Kardashians, Kris revealed that cheating on Robert is her “biggest regret in her life.”
She made the confession to her youngest daughter Khloe while questioning her mother about her infidelity and asking what her “mindset” was when she cheated.
Kris was stunned by the questioning, but agreed to talk candidly about her affair with Aquarius.
Khloe started by saying, “When you did that, with my dad, and you had four kids, and you had a family, this whole thing. Yes, I know you were very young, and that’s a big factor.’

‘The One’: At the time, he revealed he was looking for an ‘energetic’ partner and hoped to find ‘the one’ among the 22 women vying for his heart
The affair reportedly started when Kris was 34 years old, and she responded, “I think being very young and stupid is something that plays into that because you don’t really understand the consequences of your actions.”
Khloe then asked, “But what didn’t my dad do that made you want to look elsewhere?”
Kris responded, “I don’t know because he was such a great husband and such a great father and I guess I was put in a situation where I thought the grass was greener somewhere else. And I made a big mistake. That’s the biggest regret of my life.’
Kris added in a confession: “When I got divorced, Robert and I became best friends. We talked on the phone all day, constantly helping each other through it, and I kind of regretted it.
“I thought, ‘Wow, what was I thinking?’ So I just want Khloe to be very careful when she makes these decisions and has to let someone go.”
At home, Kris added, “You know, I’m not proud of the way I acted at the time, but you know what, everything happens for a reason. I really live my life thinking that God has a plan, and without that whole thing, Kendall and Kylie would never have happened.”
Kris then sighed and told Khloe, “I just want you to be happy,” while Khloe added, “I already have a happily ever after with my kids.” I’m completely happy. If you have a partner, I always put that person first, and I don’t want to put anyone else but my children first. Life is short. My kids are only this age…” as Kris finished, “just a minute.”
‘Literally the blink of an eye. And I’m proud of myself for being with them, and diving into it as much as I do, because it’s very easy to just say, ‘No, someone else is doing it.’ That’s not what I want to do in my life right now and it’s not who I’ve ever been.”
Kris added, “But how wonderful for your kids and how wonderful to have this experience with them and be so present, because a lot of people aren’t.”

Kris said in a confession: ‘I move very fast and make decisions quickly. Khloe is taking her time, which is great, and I understand where she’s at, and I think it’s in a very healthy place. She is one of the strongest people I have ever met.”
Khloe told Kris, “I just want to enjoy my life with them and when I find a man, I will find a man. That’s not my top priority, but I really don’t want anything right now. I don’t want anyone else’s responsibility right now, so give me time.’
“Deal,” Kris said to her daughter.
Although Kris admitted to the affair in her 2011 book, she disguised his identity as Ryan Lowe before Waterman came forward in a Daily Mail interview in January 2012.
