"Everybody looks at this like .... 'There's no way this can work because you're not together every minute,'" Joan, 62, exclusively tells Parade. "We don't feel the same way about it. We feel like we both have pretty rich lives in our 60s. You find somebody [at that time of life], chances are they have stuff going on. They have family or they have jobs or they have friend groups, or they have hobbies. So you might not need to spend every waking moment together or you might not need to live in the same city, and that's how we feel right now about it."
She goes on to say that she and Chock each get to visit the other when there's "something fun happening" in their respective hometowns. "He had a party at his country club on Friday night. We had a blast. I loved being there," she explains.

This past Valentine's Day, six years to the day since her late husband's diagnosis, Joan was named ambassador for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN)'s PurpleStride, the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer taking place April 26 with her team "It’s Just a Sprain" (for the Washington, D.C., location).
Although it has been difficult for her to move on from her marriage, she says she knows her late husband would want her to be happy. "John actually told me, 'I want you to find somebody else. I want you to still have a life. You're young, you deserve a future,'" she shares. "And I know that's true. It still feels really weird, but I know he's happy for me."
"I don't think we'll be engaged forever. I wanna marry Chock," she adds now. "It's honestly — our journey is a little weird. ... We are doing the dating process backwards, so I feel like we have a little time of just like, we're having fun dating and not having a million things we have to do."Plus, she says, "We don't have biological clocks. We've done all of that, so there's no rush to get married. So, you know, whenever it feels right, it'll feel right and we could probably throw it together fairly quickly. We don't need this big extravagant thing that you do when you're younger."
