Joan made her television debut as a contestant on The Golden Bachelor season 1, and was later cast as the Bachelor spin-off's first female lead. The Golden Bachelorette season 1 premiered with Joan meeting 24 single older men, and Chock stood out from the beginning.
She liked him so much that she gave him the highly coveted first solo date. From her first solo date to her last solo date, Joan gave Chock her final rose. They got engaged and left the show to start their lives together, but was their holiday break a sign that there's trouble in paradise?

Different Communication Styles
Maybe they needed to take a relationship break because Joan and Chock have been spending too much time together. They've been together almost constantly since The Golden Bachelorette season 1 finale. No matter how much they love each other, it may be too much time to spend together early in the relationship. Joan recently posted an Instagram video of her and Chock cooking together, and, when Chock goes to cut slits in the piece of meat for the garlic cloves, Joan snaps at him, telling him he's not doing it correctly.
Joan and Chock bickering about garlic placement may be a clue that they need a break, but it could also be a bad sign for the future of the relationship. The first part of a relationship is generally the happiest and easiest, and if Joan and Chock already need time off, it could be a sign that they won't live happily ever after. The post has over 7K likes so far, and Joan's caption reads, "Our first cooking video together..." If they constantly need space from each other, maybe they won't make more cooking videos. They might split up instead.
