ABC’s “Golden Bachelor,” a Detroit native, has narrowed his search for love down to three women as the season nears the end.
Mel Owens, 66, who grew up in Detroit, has narrowed the field in the reality show down to Cindy, 60, a retired biomedical engineer from Austin, Texas; Debbie, 65, a fitness professional from Denver, Colorado; and Peg, 62, a retired firefighter and bomb tech from Las Vegas.
Owens is set to meet the families of each of the three contestants during the show’s hometown visit episode tonight, Oct. 22. Tonight is the final episode before the “Women Tell All,” which is set to air on Oct. 29.
The Season 2 finale is slated for Nov. 5.
Owens went on a group date in the previous episode that included a spiritual getaway to Butterfly Mountian, located in Los Angeles.
Contestants were asked to let go of negative emotions, and each woman had alone time with Owens.
In the end, Owens offered roses to Cindy, Peg and Debbie while sending home Cheryl and Nicolle.
