There is a strong possibility that Pascal Ibgui, a notable personality from The Golden Bachelorette, could appear in season 2 of The Golden Bachelor, albeit in an unexpected role that falls outside the lead position. At 69 years old and originally hailing from France, Pascal has made Chicago, Illinois, his home for most of his life. His connection with the Golden Bachelorette lead, Joan Vassos, was evident, and she reciprocated his feelings. Their journey included a memorable overnight date in Las Vegas, where they donned elegant outfits and enjoyed an intimate dinner together. Ultimately, Pascal made it into Joan’s final four, giving her a glimpse into his life in Chicago.
During their time together, Pascal introduced Joan to his three children, who expressed admiration for their father and showed support for his budding relationship with her. Joan also saw Pascal in his professional element as a hair salon owner, where his staff praised him warmly. However, Joan had reservations about Pascal’s emotional barriers, fearing he might be reluctant to fully open up. This concern became a reality during the final dates in Tahiti, where Pascal chose to self-eliminate, citing the need for further personal growth before committing to a relationship.

Making the Tough Choice: Breaking Joan’s Heart
Since season 1 wrapped, fans have missed Pascal’s presence on Bachelor Nation. Season 1 was filmed back in July, providing Pascal ample time for reflection and personal development. Although his decision affected both Joan and himself, it was apparent that Pascal experienced significant growth throughout the process, ultimately understanding his lovable nature while confronting his insecurities about vulnerability.
A Fan Favorite Among Golden Bachelorette Viewers
Pascal’s Unapologetic Charm
Throughout his time on The Golden Bachelorette, Pascal remained true to himself, which endeared him to fans. Known for his boujee style, he also exuded an approachable charm that resonated with viewers. In contrast, Joan’s eventual fiancé, Chock Chapple, lacked the same fanfare and faced criticism, especially after Pascal candidly referred to him as having “stalker”tendencies during Joan’s season. Although Pascal later retracted his comment, it echoed many viewers’ sentiments and boosted his popularity further.
Bringing back Pascal’s vibrant personality and entertaining criticisms to the Bachelor Nation would certainly delight many fans.
The Potential of Pascal as a Mentor in The Golden Bachelor
An Opinionated Presence
Considering the personal journey Pascal underwent during The Golden Bachelorette, it’s conceivable that he could assume a mentoring role in season 2 of The Golden Bachelor. As one of the captivating personalities from Joan’s season, Pascal would be well-suited to offer insights and support to the upcoming lead. His strong opinions and knack for articulating them would contribute positively to the show’s dynamic and could be invaluable for the next bachelor.
Who Will Be The Next Golden Bachelor?
Expecting an Announcement Soon
While Pascal has demonstrated significant personal growth, which is essential for healthy relationships, it may prevent him from taking on the lead role as the next Golden Bachelor. The position demands a candidate who can engage openly and sincerely with potential partners, and it’s uncertain if Pascal has reached that level of readiness. A strong contender for the lead role could be Charles Ling, a fan favorite from The Golden Bachelorette. Other options like Mark Anderson, Kelsey Anderson’s father, is already in a new relationship, while Guy Gansert, Joan’s runner-up, carries a controversial history that viewers might scrutinize.
Both The Golden Bachelorette and The Golden Bachelor are available for streaming on Hulu.
