During the highly anticipated finale of The Golden Bachelor, Leslie Fhima was left disappointed when she didn’t get the chance to showcase her stunning designer dress to Gerry Turner. The episode took a dramatic turn when Gerry chose Theresa Nist as his final pick, leaving many fans stunned, especially since Leslie was considered a top contender. Sadly, things only got worse for Leslie as Gerry broke up with her during their last one-on-one date, confessing that he had developed feelings for Theresa. This was particularly heartbreaking for Leslie, who had shared a special moment with Gerry in the Fantasy Suite, where he had professed his love for her. Leslie never made it to the final rose ceremony and expressed her disappointment at missing out on the iconic Bachelor franchise moment. In a comedic twist, she also mistakenly revealed the wrong price of her dress during the emotional breakup.
During the Golden Bachelor finale, Leslie mentioned a $60,000 dress that she had to wear on the Proposal Platform, but it turns out that she may have been referring to the wrong dress. Designer Randi Rahm clarified that Leslie did try on a $60,000 dress, but it wasn’t the one she wore during her breakup with Gerry. The dress Leslie actually wore was a beautiful chiffon gown that featured a mix of fabrics to create textures. Regardless of the cost of the dress, the final rose ceremony is a special moment on the Bachelor franchise. Although Gerry ended things with Leslie beforehand, she appreciated that he spared her from experiencing heartbreak while wearing the designer dress.
