In a surprising turn of events, Theresa Nist, known for her appearance on the debut season of "The Golden Bachelor," was recently spotted wearing her diamond-encrusted wedding band despite her separation from husband, Gerry Turner. Photos obtained by Page Six captured the reality star, aged 70, walking outside her office building in New Jersey, with the platinum eternity band still adorning her left ring finger.

The stunning ring features 18 brilliant cut diamonds, adding an undeniable touch of bling to Nist's hand. However, noticeably missing was the engagement ring, which Turner had given to her during their time on the ABC dating show. In their divorce announcement, Nist revealed that she would have to return the vintage-inspired Neil Lane sparkler, which had a princess-cut diamond accentuated by two baguette-cut diamonds and 128 small, round brilliant-cut diamonds, weighing a total of 3.15 carats.

Nist had previously expressed her adoration for the engagement ring, describing it as "beautiful, beyond. Beyond, beyond. So gorgeous. I love it," in an interview with People last December. Now, with the dissolution of their union, she must bid farewell to the stunning piece of jewelry.

Nist and Turner, aged 72, recently appeared on "Good Morning America" to shed light on their decision to part ways. They cited their dedication to their respective families, who live hundreds of miles apart in Indiana and New Jersey, as a significant factor that led to their mutual conclusion to separate. "We look at these situations, and I think we just feel like it's best for the happiness of each of us to live apart," explained Turner. Nist added, "We considered homes in South Carolina and New Jersey, but we never reached a decision."

Turner, wasting no time, immediately filed for divorce in his home state of Indiana following the announcement of their breakup. He cited an "irretrievable breakdown" in their relationship as the reason behind their decision. The couple had tied the knot in an extravagant televised wedding ceremony held in Palm Springs, California, in early January.

While the chapter of their marriage may be coming to an end, it seems that Nist is not yet ready to let go of the bling associated with their union. With her diamond-encrusted wedding band still on full display, it remains to be seen what the future holds for these reality stars as they navigate their lives separately.
