The Spectacular Dance Routines of Golden Bachelor’s Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist Rock TikTok’s Newest Trend, the “Beckham Challenge”

The couple, in their seventies, enthusiastically embraced a viral craze reminiscent of David and Victoria Beckham as they danced to the classic tune “Islands in the Stream” by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, sparking a joyful and lighthearted ambiance.

Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist

Gerry Turner and his fiancĂ©e Theresa Nist are enjoying themselves on the dance floor, taking inspiration from David and Victoria Beckham’s dance in the soccer superstar’s documentary. Nist, who is 70 years old, posted a video on Instagram of herself and Turner, aged 72, dancing together in their bedroom. The couple, who got engaged on the finale of the show “Golden Bachelor” on November 30th, will be getting married next month. The video shows Turner following Nist’s lead as they dance to the iconic 1983 duet “Islands in the Stream” by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers. Nist captioned the clip with lyrics from the song, expressing the deep connection they feel for each other. This dance trend was sparked by the release of the Beckham’s Netflix documentary on October 4th, where the couple spontaneously danced to “Islands in the Stream”. Victoria Beckham described feeling content in that moment, which resonated with viewers. Since then, couples on social media have been testing their partners by starting to dance to the song without any prior explanation, just like David Beckham did, to see if their significant other will join in. This trend, known as “The Beckham Test,” is deemed “passed” if the partner follows in David’s footsteps and dances along to the music.

Victoria and David Beckham

Victoria and David Beckham were seen attending the premiere of the Netflix documentary “Beckham” in the UK at The Curzon Mayfair on October 3, 2023. This power couple made a stylish appearance on the red carpet, captivating everyone with their presence.

In other news, Gerry Turner, famously known as the Golden Bachelor, and his fiancée Theresa Nist made their official red carpet debut as an engaged couple. This couple, known for their love and support for each other, recently shared their excitement for the upcoming holiday season on social media.

Turner took to Instagram to announce that they had started the season by bringing together their families. In his festive post, he expressed his happiness for what he called a “very Gerry Christmas” with Theresa and their blended family. The accompanying photo showcased the Turner-Nist ladies proudly posing on a staircase, all dressed in matching red sweaters that had “A Very Gerry Christmas” written on them.

The heartwarming image captured Theresa seated beside her daughter, Jen Woolston, and her daughter-in-law, Amanda Nist. Gerry’s two daughters, Jenny Young and Angie Turner, stood a level higher, beaming with delight. It was a joyful moment that symbolized love, unity, and the start of a new chapter for this beautiful couple and their soon-to-be blended family.
