Signs The Golden Bachelorette’s Chock Chapple’s Refusal To Move To NYC Could Push Joan Vassos To End Their Relationship (Should Joan Make The Move Without Him?)

The Golden Bachelorette star Chock Chapple has been making it seem like he’s no longer interested in moving from Kansas to NYC the way he and Joan Vassos originally agreed to, showing signs that Joan could choose to end their relationship. As Joan and Chock, who met and fell in love during The Golden Bachelorette season 1, have been sharing more about their relationship, Bachelor Nation has appeared to have more questions. Throughout Joan and Chock’s post-season press appearances, they made it clear that they were going to try to move to NYC after the chaos came to an end.

While Joan and Chock have been back and forth between her home state of Maryland, his home state of Kansas, and New York City a few times in the last few months, it’s become increasingly obvious that Chock would prefer to stay in Kansas. Joan, who’s been upfront about wanting to be close enough to be around her kids and grandkids in Maryland, was open to NYC because of the ability to get back home in a few short hours by train. Even so, while Joan’s been exploring her options in NYC, Chock’s been back in Kansas without much momentum.

Joan’s Dreamt Of Living In NYC After The Golden Bachelorette

She’s Been Open About What She Wants

Although Joan has been open about the fact that she’s interested in moving to New York, she’s been doing a lot of searching on her own. Sharing that she and Chock were going to be looking into real estate in NYC after The Golden Bachelorette, Joan revealed that the pair were exploring the SoHo neighborhood before the holiday season. While things slowed down after Christmas, it was clear the search was still on.

Joan’s made a few trips to New York City since the holiday season, but the majority of her time there has been spent without Chock tagging along. Though he’s got to be cognizant of his business in Kansas, Chock also just doesn’t appear like he was as interested in NYC as Joan was. Rather than being upfront, however, Chock’s been ignoring Bachelor Nation’s questions about the Big Apple.

Chock’s Distaste For NYC Could Be A Dealbreaker

He’s Not Interested In Joan’s Ideal Move

Although Chock hasn’t been direct about the idea of not moving to New York City, he’s been spending the majority of his time in Kansas while Joan’s been moving around a fair bit. Despite knowing that he’s interested in staying with Joan, Chock’s been open about the fact that Kansas is a huge deal for him. Unfortunately, not sticking by Joan in her pursuit of moving to NYC could be a dealbreaker for the couple. Chock’s desire to stay in Kansas could prove to be a way bigger issue than expected, especially if he doesn’t keep Joan up to date.

It Could Make Their Relationship Difficult

As Joan and Chock move through their relationship, they’ve already dealt with a fair deal of ups and downs. Though they’re strong together, it seems like their relationship is still very young and the level of maturity they both need to build could be a big deal. Chock wanting to stay in Kansas could prove to be something Joan doesn’t have the ability to get over, especially if she’s determined to move to NYC no matter what. Though she may try to find a compromise with Chock, Joan could find herself single again after The Golden Bachelorette.
