Chock Chapple has positioned himself as a frontrunner on The Golden Bachelorette, and it's making the other men jealous. Joan Vassos rose to fame on Gerry Turner's season of The Golden Bachelor, and she's been taking her own shot at love in The Bachelor franchise spinoff. As a Midwestern man hailing from Wichita, Kansas, Chock made a cozy and sweet entrance with his "chock-a-noodle" soup, and has remained among Joan's top suitors ever since. However, The Golden Bachelorette season 1 contestant is bringing out the competitive nature in his fellow cast members.

Like many contestants on The Golden Bachelorette, Chock has experienced loss and hardship in his previous relationships. Two years ago, he sadly lost his fiancée to brain cancer. His mom, suffering from cancer, encouraged him to find love again on the show. Chock admitted he was a bit lonely, and despite having kids, an amazing career, and traveling the world, he still wanted someone to spend the rest of his life with. He quickly positioned himself as a frontrunner, but now, other The Golden Bachelorette cast members seem jealous of the sweet, caring man. Here's why.
Chock Is Treating Joan Well
He's A Kind And Caring Man
Chock had to leave The Golden Bachelorette in episode 4 because of his mother's death. "I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know," he told Joan as he departed the show. At the time, Joan was heartbroken, as he had already positioned himself as one of the top contenders on the show. However, he hinted towards his return in future episodes because his feelings for Joan were too strong to throw away.
" I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know. "
Chock got a chance to woo Joan one-on-one during a Disneyland date, where he definitely behaved like a gentleman and treated Joan with care and intention. The pair enjoyed rides and meeting characters like Mickey and Minnie Mouse together, but the best outcome of the date was Joan's meaningful connection with Chock. While they were having fun, Chock seemed to spend the entire one-on-one getting to know Joan on a deeper level. Chock proved on the date that he's serious about Joan and isn't just posturing to the cameras.
Some of the other men, like Mark Anderson and Pascal Ibgul, seem caught up in their own pasts or baggage to pay attention to Joan's needs. While The Golden Bachelorette is still set up like a competition, the older cast members should be mature enough to get to know each other on a deeper level. Everyone has baggage by Joan's age, and the real test is the ability to work though their pasts together. Chock appears to be the only cast member who actually wants to move forward with Joan as a partner.
Chock Is A Successful Man Who Seems To Have Money
He Works In Insurance
Chock's online presence suggests that he's a wealthy man, and his affluence could impress Joan. He is the owner of Insurance Services, LLC in Wichita, Kansas, a successful and independent agency that offers a wide variety of services. As the owner and CEO of the business, Chock is presumably a wealthy man. While he hasn't said so, Midwesterners tend to understate their financial situations because they don't like to show off. However, there are hints that Chock has money on his Instagram.
Chock's quiet wealth is definitely a green flag. Joan wouldn't want to be with someone who was showing off.
Chock is well-dressed in his Instagram photos, and his house looks large and polished based on posts featuring spaces in his home. Chock lives on a large ranch, as evidenced by another photo celebrating the beauty of the sunrise. He drops little Easter eggs of his wealth, never showing off his riches in a gaudy or tacky way. While Joan hasn't expressed her desire to marry someone with plenty of money, it definitely won't hurt Chock's chances with her on The Golden Bachelorette.
Chock Is Astrologically Compatible With Joan
They're A Perfect Pair
As if they couldn't be more perfect for each other, Joan and Chock are also astrologically aligned. Joan was born on January 11, 1963, making her a Capricorn. Chock's birthday is September 14, 1963, making him a Virgo. Virgos are no-nonsense, detail-oriented, and hardworking, which Chock has exemplified in his professional life. As a school administrator, Joan exemplifies stereotypical Capricorn qualities like organizational skills and a strong work ethic. She's also shown her ability to balance logic and emotions, an important skill when choosing a life partner.
