Golden Bachelor’s Susan Noles Discovers French Romance on Tinder
Gear up for your swipe-right breakthrough—this is the ultimate testament that love can strike when you least expect it! Susan Noles, the 68-year‑old star of The Golden Bachelor, just dropped a soul-lifting revelation on her April 21 episode of the Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour podcast: she has “found my person” in a French gentleman she met on Tinder. According to People Magazine and her candid podcast chat, Noles confessed, “Just when you think it’s never going to happen, it happens.” This is more than a reality-TV twist; it’s proof that perseverance pays off.
After years on dating apps and a memorable but unfruitive national-TV fling, Susan seized a sleepless night during a Saint Martin vacation and thought, “What do I have to lose?” She swiped right on Frédéric, a 54-year‑old French native, and then left Tinder untouched for three days—only to be greeted by his message when she finally checked back in. Inspired by her motto of embracing fresh beginnings, she enlisted her co‑host Kathy Swarts, 71, to join her on a first date for real‑time translation help (they even tested out a translation app equipped with earpods).
As reported by Entertainment Tonight and detailed on her podcast, the duo navigated cross‑cultural conversation glitches before Nancy Hulkower staged an “emergency” call to give Susan and Frédéric space—sparking a three‑and‑a‑half‑hour date filled with laughter and undeniable chemistry. Frédéric, described as “tall, handsome, a great cook and as silly as I am,” walked Susan home at the end of the evening, leaving both hearts racing. “He wanted to come in, but the rules are the rules,” she smiled.
Since that island spark, Susan has flown back to Saint Martin four times, soaking up every moment with her new love. “I found the love of my life,” the wedding-officiant turned reality‑TV alum declared, proving that second-chance romance is more than a sweet catchphrase—it’s a living, breathing triumph. With every visit, Susan’s radiant grin confirms she’s tapped into something truly transformative.
This isn’t just celebrity gossip; it’s a motivational playbook for anyone who’s ever felt resigned to single life. Susan’s journey underscores that self‑belief, a swipe of courage and an open heart can rewrite your love story at any age. Embrace her lesson: your next match could be the one who changes your life’s trajectory.
Now take this swipe‑right success as a sign—your next match could change everything! Keep pushing forward and stay inspired!
