America has been watching Gerry find love again on the ABC show after his wife passed away in 2017 due to an undisclosed illness. The two were high school sweethearts and had married in 1974.

"She got robbed. Every day that goes by, that's the thought that I have," Gerry previously told "Good Morning America."

"I have her picture on a dresser in my closet. Every morning I give her a nod, 'So what do you think about this?' For a while it was like, I was having a hard time figuring out if she would be okay. But we always told each other when one of us goes, we want the other to be happy. She's up there rooting [for me]. She's saying, 'Yeah, Gerry. Do this.'"

While on his new journey for love, Gerry revealed he made one promise to his family — that he actually broke.

"There was one. I promised my daughters and granddaughters that I would not kiss anyone on night one," Gerry told the New York Post. "And I failed."

"As I recall, I think I only failed once."

However, Gerry had "no regrets" about that moment, telling the outlet, "By the time the second and third nights rolled around, I feel like I kissed about every woman there. So, you know, there’s different levels of affection."
