The Golden Bachelorette alum Jonathan Rone and Michelle Zimmermann have called it quits.
“Hello everyone, Jonathan here. I have some news to share. I’ve been waiting for the right moment to do this and I believe today is the day,” Rone, 62, said in a Saturday, February 22, video shared via Instagram. “I just want to share with everyone that I am no longer in a relationship. It was fun, it was fast and it just didn’t last.”
Rone noted that he’s “grateful for all of the experiences” that he shared with his ex, adding that he met her “amazing” friends and family.
“Nothing is wasted in the universe of time and so I think moving forward I only hope and wish the best for both of us,” he continued. “And so that being said, I’m just left with these feelings and these reflections of thinking. Why is it that my relationships always end in a way that I don’t see coming? Where do I fall short? Am I not enough? Am I not worthy enough? So those are silly things to think about because I know that I am.”
Rone recalled ex Joan Vassos giving him “some validation,” noting that it “meant a lot” to him. (Rone vied for the affections of Vassos, 62, on The Golden Bachelorette season 1, which aired in 2024. Vassos ended her season engaged to Chock Chapple.)
“So I know that I am worthy, I know that I have enough,” he said. “I have a big heart and I show up. I’m open. I’m loyal. I’m honest. I’m committed.”

Rone noted that “things will get better” in time. “If it’s meant to be I’ll find the right person who will truly see me for who I am and will value me and love me and not let go and not break my heart,” he said. “So that’s it. Kitten caboodle. Single as a dollar bill. So I wish you all the best today. Cheers.”
“With a heavy heart, I want to share that I’m no longer in a relationship 💔 ,” Rone captioned his post. “Thank you all for your support as I continue my journey toward happiness. I know my person is out there, and I’ll find them when the time is right. Thank you all for the love and support @joan_vassos.”

After not finding The One in Vassos, Rone revealed during the November 2024 Men Tell All episode that he had moved on with another woman.
“I just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity,” Rone told Vassos in the episode. “I mean, I wouldn’t be here, I wouldn’t have started the journey if it wasn’t because of you. And so I just kind of wanted to give an update that on this journey that I have met someone and the most important thing about that is that I’m happy.”
Days later, Rone got candid about his connection with Zimmermann. “‘So I Dropped The Bomb’… I started my journey looking for love, a love that is a forever love. A love I thought I once had but this was my second chance! So, I went all in with no walls to protect my vulnerability! I had no other intentions than that!” he wrote via Instagram. “This journey can be full of expectations but the unexpected happened and ‘The Bomb’ is the second chance I’ve been looking for! I am so grateful for all of the support and kind words from all you in the Bachelor Nation! I’m happy to say that Michelle is truly ‘My Bomb❤️.’”
