Joan Vassos Breaks Silence About Chock Split Rumors

She Shares Wedding Update
While Joan Vassos seemed to confirm she’s still engaged, the couple isn’t planning to walk down the aisle any time soon. The Golden Bachelorette star recently shared an update on the wedding with the Daily Mail. She said that she was “flattered” that people were so invested in her romantic life. But a wedding isn’t on the calendar for a while yet.
‘I just got one child [Nicholas] married last summer, and then I have another one to get married this summer. So my son, my youngest [Luke] is getting married, and then I’ll probably start thinking about our wedding,” the Golden Bachelorette star explained.
“We are really happy the way we are right now. We travel and we just get to do all the fun things, and I mean, you know, marriage is meaningful. I believe in it. I just don’t think that we need to do it in any rush,” she added.
One of the “fun things” the couple recently finally got to do was visit Disney World on ABC’s dime. Joan Vassos and Chock Chapple took their families on a trip to the Happiest Place on Earth in November. Now, they’re planning on spending a month together in New York City.
