The Golden Bachelorette contestants’ kids are having a sense of humor about their dads not finding love with Joan Vassos.
In a TikTok video posted on Friday, November 8, the children of the castoffs united to poke fun at their dads. “I’m Bob [Kilroy]’s kid, Meg, and I’m passing the phone to someone who also did not get a new stepmom,” the video began as it cut to the next kid. “Hi, I’m Matt. I’m Michael [Stevens]’s son and I will be passing the phone to someone who did not get a new stepmom.”
The video continued with clips from the children of contestants including Dan Roemer and Jordan Heller. Mid-way through the TikTok, a man held up a cut-out of Gary Levingston’s face and pretended to laugh like the 65-year old. “I’m Blake, Gary’s son, and I’m passing the phone to someone who didn’t get a new stepmom,” he said.
After the clip showed two of Pascal Ibgui’s children and Keith Gordon’s daughter, several of Mark Anderson’s children appeared — including season 28 Bachelor Joey Graziadei’s fiancée, Kelsey Anderson.
Joan Vassos’ DMs got so wild after appearing on The Golden Bachelor that her kids had to step in. “[With DMs], they’re just total strangers messaging you. I didn’t really respond to those much. Or I would have little conversations and say, ‘Thank you, you’re so flattering,’ or whatever,” the Golden Bachelorette, 61, said in […]
“Hi, I am Mark’s kid Kelsey, and I am passing the phone to someone who also did not get a new step mom,” Kelsey, 26, said.
The clip, which was posted by Kelsey’s sister Taylor, was captioned, “Just passing the phone after the @TheGoldenBachelorette Men Tell All.” Kelsey took to the comments section to write, “Lol just a bunch of step momless kids.”

The video came after several of Joan’s contestants reunited for the Men Tell All episode, which premiered one week ahead of the season one finale. Joan, who still has Chock Chapple and Guy Gansert vying for her affections, has remained tight-lipped about how her journey comes to a close.
When Us Weekly asked Joan, 61, whether she could confidently say she found love on the show, Joan admitted it’s a “hard question” to answer.
“The journey ended exactly like it should. I feel like I found a lot of love and there’s all different kinds of love,” Joan told Us in September. “I feel like every one of these men are gonna be in my life forever. We shared really, really intimate things about our lives and we are bonded. So I think I found a lot of love actually this season.”
The Golden Bachelorette finale airs on ABC Wednesday, November 13, at 8 p.m. ET.
