As for what he imagines Toni would think of the dating show, Gerry said he had “strong positive feelings” about her reaction.
“I think she would be very happy,” he continued. “I think she’s probably seen me fail at a number of attempted relationships and dating, and I really think she would approve of this. It’s positive. It’s energetic. It’s a way of communicating and finding the connection with a number of people, but specifically one special person.”
Gerry and Toni met when they were sophomores in high school and went on to wed in 1974. The pair later welcomed daughters Angie and Jenny, as well as granddaughters Charlee and Payton.
Since Toni’s passing, Gerry said his dating life hasn’t been the smoothest ride.
