The Golden Bachelor: Hometowns Episode Recap
The Golden Bachelor returned with a dramatic hometowns episode following Sunday night's double elimination. Sunny kicks off the segment confidently, declaring, "I'm the CEO for today!"
She takes Bear to a driving range in Sydney, playfully rubbing her butt against him. Sunny clarifies, "Not a grizzly bear, a very obedient Bear," referring to the contestant.
During their time together, Sunny confesses to Bear that she is "in love with" him, a heartfelt admission. She also reveals that she only became single six months ago, a surprising disclosure so late in the show.
Introducing Bear to Family
Sunny introduces Bear as her "boyfriend" to her daughters. Bear responds cautiously, adding, "she might be jumping the gun," which feels somewhat dismissive.
Daughters Question Bear
Alone with Sunny's daughters, Chloe and Penny, Bear faces direct questions about his views on strong women. Chloe probes whether he feels "intimidated" by loud, confident women, then asks if he is a feminist.
“For a guy to be a feminist?” he muses. “What’s being a guy got to do with anything?”
His reaction comes off as awkward and somewhat dismissive, as if being asked about his astrological sign rather than his beliefs.
Summary
The episode highlights tensions around generational perspectives, especially when feminism is brought up, revealing underlying attitudes during the courting process.
