Golden Bachelor winner Theresa Nist is rocking a brand-new look.

The 71-year-old reality star — who wed (and divorced) the inaugural Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner in 2024 — took to Instagram to share several selfies debuting her lighter-colored locks.

"I started getting gray hair in my 30s. So, it's been many years of coloring it and it's actually darker now than it originally was," Nist, who fans know for her rich, chocolate-brown hair, wrote in the caption of the post, showing off her new, honey-colored hair.

"So, for a long time, I've been thinking about go a little bit lighter and I finally did and it makes me happy!" she declared, asking her followers: "Are you thinking of making any changes to your hair or do you love it just the way it is?!"

Nist's change in appearance comes less than a year after her split from Turner, 73, whom she married in January 2024 after meeting on the 2023 reality series. The couple were married for only three months before calling it quits in April 2024.

The exes have been open about some of the factors that led to their split — namely, not being able to agree on where to live — though they haven't always seen eye-to-eye on other issues that plagued their marriage.

After Turner was diagnosed with cancer in early 2024, he told People that December that he wanted "to continue on as normal as possible, and that led me to believing that as normal as possible more meant spending time with my family, my two daughters, my two son-in-laws, my granddaughters," he said, noting: "And the importance of finding the way with Theresa was still there, but it became less of a priority."

For Turner, the diagnosis "had a huge bearing on my decisions and I think probably Theresa's as well," he told the outlet.

Nist, however, countered that her husband's cancer "wasn't a factor in the ending of the relationship, at least not for me."

"Part of it was the distance, but that wasn't the only part," she shared with People, adding: "That's really all I will say."
