Golden Bachelor’s Susan Noles Sparks French Tinder Love
This is your breakthrough moment: Susan Noles just turned a casual swipe into a life‑changing love story! In an inspiring twist worthy of a motivational manifesto, The Golden Bachelor alum, 68, revealed on her April 21 Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour podcast that she “found my person” – a tall, handsome Frenchman she met on Tinder. Success leaves clues, and today’s journey proves it’s never too late to swipe right on destiny.
Susan candidly shared she had been “on dating sites forever” with no luck after her TV stint. But while vacationing in Saint Martin with podcast co‑host Kathy Swarts, she couldn’t sleep one night and decided to go for it. “What do I have to lose?” she thought, and hit that Tinder icon. She swiped right on Frédéric, left her app untouched for three days, then discovered his message. Boom – connection unlocked.
Recognizing the language barrier, Susan enlisted Kathy to join their first date, armed with translation apps and earpods. As Kathy put it, “I had no idea Susan had connected until she panicked and roped me in.” The scene was straight out of a feel‑good film: two new lovers, heads buried in smartphones, determined to bridge English and French. To extract Kathy, former co‑star Nancy Hulkower faked an urgent call – and Susan finally got her private tête‑à‑tête with Frédéric. Three and a half hours later, he walked her home, politely declining her invite inside, proving he’s both courteous and genuine.
Kathy admits she “couldn’t wipe the smile off her face” witnessing Susan’s glow. By day three, Susan boldly declared Frédéric was moving in, dancing the night away and spending every waking moment together. When Susan describes him as “as silly as I am” and “a great cook,” you know this is authentic chemistry. Since February, she’s flown back to Saint Martin four times, solidifying their bond and proving that love – like a stellar habit – demands commitment and bold action.
Susan’s story is a masterclass in resilient optimism: despite national television rejection, she embraced vulnerability, risked embarrassment, and discovered the rewards of persistence. Every “no” and awkward date prepared her for this moment. Her takeaway? Never underestimate the power of a single decision. Whether you’re 28 or 68, one swipe can change everything.
Now take this lesson in courage and turn it into action. Keep pushing forward, stay open to surprises, and remember that greatness often starts with a leap of faith. Who’s ready to write their own love success story?
