The Golden Bachelorette alum Dan Roemer has set the record straight on whether he’s dating The Golden Bachelor alum Edith Aguirre.
“When we met you, it seemed as though you and Edith were getting to know each other,” co-host Susan Noles asked on the Wednesday, February 12 episode of the “Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour” podcast.
“I want to know, curious minds want to know, did it go any further? Are you guys seeing each other? Are you a thing or just friends?”

Dan, 64, replied, “Edith is awesome, first of all. What’s not to love about Edith? She’s so great.”
When Kathy, 67, quipped that she wants Edith’s beautiful long hair, Dan replied, “Right? Isn’t that great? It’s fantastic.”
Susan then pointed out how Edith’s body is also “beautiful.”
Dan, however, has apparently been too busy to prioritize a romance with Edith, a retired realtor from California, right now.
Dan’s father recently died after being diagnosed with Glioblastoma, and The Golden Bachelorette alum shared how he’s been splitting his time between Naples, FL, and Kansas City, MO, over the last two months to be with family, who are still mourning the loss of his father.
“I really haven’t had an opportunity to date, period. And we live on opposite coasts,” the private investor explained of his dynamic with Edith.
“So if I was in [Los Angeles]…”
“But, Dan, you told me,” Kathy interjected, “[in] the five seconds that I got to talk to you at [Joan Vassos] and [Chock Chapple]’s engagement party when you weren’t otherwise engaged, you told me that you were thinking about moving to L.A.”
Dan confirmed, “I am,” although his moving plans have “gotten pushed” this year.
Dan said he had planned to move from Florida to Orange County to be close to his daughter and son-in-law.
“That’s been my plan and is my plan,” Dan clarified.
“But I’m not on a timeline. So, maybe at some point this year I can get that handled. But I’ve got real estate here, I’ve got things to take care of.”

Dan said he got a divorce in 2010 and has had a couple of serious relationships since then. Dan has also dabbled in the dating apps but not had much luck.
Dan therefore addressed the possibility of appearing on a future Bachelor in Paradise spinoff for the Golden franchise alums.
“I don’t understand Bachelor in Paradise and what would go on with us Golden people,” Dan quipped. “But I’m open to anything, absolutely.”
Dan competed on Season 1 of The Golden Bachelorette, which aired in 2024. Joan ended up picking Chock as her winner, and the couple’s relationship is still thriving.
For Edith’s part, the 62-year-old beauty competed on Season 1 of The Golden Bachelor starring Gerry Turner.
Gerry got engaged to Theresa Nist during the late 2023 season finale.
Gerry and Theresa got married in a live televised special in January 2024 on ABC, but they announced their decision to divorce in April 2024. The couple finalized their divorce just a couple of months later.
