To find love again, Joan had to overcome feeling guilty about the memory of her late husband, John Vassos. The father of her four grown children died of pancreatic cancer in Jan. 2021. Joan and Chock got engaged during the Golden finale and they have been traveling to see each other ever since, as she lives in Rockville, Maryland, and he resides in Wichita, Kansas.
But Joan revealed that their wedding plans have been put on hold for now.

Joan explained that she was speaking from Carmel, California, where she and Chock, 61, were getting ready to make a public appearance at the AT&T Pebble Beach golf tournament as guests of IHeart Radio. Joan and Chock have been social butterflies– and she is also now promoting the pain relief company Aspercreme!
Joan was packing her Aspercreme for a romantic vacation in Cancun, Mexico with Chock at the beginning of February. The couple also recently traveled to New York, where they attended a Broadway show. Chock even bought Joan some designer clothes for her Jan. 11 birthday!

Joan and Chock adore the city and have previously talked about buying a home in New York together. But she sighed to Parade that it hasn’t happened yet: “Boy, the inventory is low. It’s been a lot harder than we thought. But we’re also not in a huge hurry. We want the right place, so we’re not just settling. We have a great realtor and she’s working for us. She said that the inventory certainly grows a lot or it becomes an easier market in the spring, so we’re probably looking a few more months before we find a place but we’re still out there looking. We’re spending a lot of time there. We just go into hotels.”
She said that so far, they haven’t spent more than 10-14 days apart in their commuter relationship.

In an interview right after The Golden Bachelorette ended, Joan told Parade that Chock surprised her with his habit of napping. When asked what more she’s learned about her fiancé, she laughed, “He still loves to nap!”

“One embarrassing thing: He loves to make jokes when he spends the night at [my] house,” she told Parade. “At the house, his first night we spent, we come down, and we’re sitting at my counter. And I’m making coffee for us, my daughter is there. And she said, ‘Oh, Chock, how did you sleep last night?’ And he goes, “Uh, your mother kept me up all night.' I was like, 'This is so embarrassing!' Which was a lie, he just thought it was really funny. He thinks it’s funny to make sex jokes to my kids. Not gross ones, but he just thinks it’s funny. And I’m like, ‘You’ve got to stop that.’ “
The willowy reality TV star said they both love to stay in shape but don’t work out together.
“He’s a gym guy. He does guy stuff like bigger weights. I’m not particularly a gym person. I always work out at home. I’m way more likely to work out if I can just go down to my basement and put on YouTube videos,” she said. “I do different ones every day. I love that about YouTube. I’ll say, ‘arm workout for women with dumbbells’ or whatever with hand held and it will give me ten people to do. There’s a few women I like to do it with. I’ll pick a video I like, and I’ll do an arm workout almost every day because I’m trying not to have the old lady flabby arms. And I usually do an ab workout. Recently, I’ve been doing a lower body [workout] a little bit, trying to get the beach body a little better.”

Joan was looking forward to looking good on the beach in Mexico and said, “I always wear bikinis. I’m a little bit blessed. I have a decent metabolism, and I’m pretty careful. I like healthy food–other than, I do have a little chocolate thing, so I eat chocolate every day. I don’t say no to myself, but I have a pretty healthy lifestyle.”
