10 Best TV Drama Finales of the Last 10 Years, Ranked
The following article contains spoilers.Ending a television show comes with a tremendous amount of expectation because loyal viewers want to ensure that their time has been rewarded. While a comedy show may only have situational scenarios in which the narrative development doesn’t lead towards a dramatic finale, drama shows can be judged based on whether they are perceived to have a satisfying finale. There’s no better example of this than Game of Thrones; although it was once considered to be one of the best drama shows of all time, it now has a more mixed legacy as a result of its terrible last episode.
The pressure to be successful has grown stronger in the last decade because of the obsessive relationships viewers have with their favorite shows within the streaming era. Here are the best drama television finales of the last ten years, ranked.
10
“Prisoners of War” (Season 8, Episode 12)
‘Homeland’ (2011–2020)
Homeland was an uneven series that managed to pull off a great finale with “Prisoners of War” because it ended in a realistic way. It was never possible for Carrie (Claire Danes) to completely escape from her responsibilities to protect the United States from terrorist threats, but “Prisoners of War” at least put a solid finish to her relationship with Saul (Many Patinkin), a character who was her ally, mentor, and occasionally adversary.
“Prisoners of War” was a cleverly named title because it’s shared with the original Israeli television series that inspired Homeland. Although “Prisoners of War” indicated that one chapter of Carrie’s story had come to an end, there’s always the possibility that the series could have a revival, especially given that it has seen a surge in popularity after being made to stream on Netflix, which resulted in a significant uptick in viewership.
9
“Lock and Key” (Season 6, Episode 6)
‘Peaky Blinders’ (2013–2022)
Peaky Blinders is one of the most satisfying British crime dramas because it was a rare show that seemed to get better with each season. While it began as an underrated BBC series with a niche viewership, Peaky Blinders became a phenomenon when it became available internationally on Netflix, and managed to make an icon out of Cillian Murphy’s Thomas Shelby.
Peaky Blinders ended perfectly with “Lock and Key” because it resolved the succession of the Shelby family and provided a satisfying end to each of the characters, including a clever last-minute twist involving Thomas’ destiny. While it was as great a conclusion as any loyal fan of the show could have asked for, it’s not the ultimate ending, as Murphy and most of the original cast are returning for the spinoff film Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man on Netflix.
8
“Jedha, Kyber, Erso” (Season 2, Episode 12)
‘Andor’ (2022–2025)
Andor is the best piece of Star Wars storytelling since Return of the Jedi, and the series ended on a perfect note that beautifully set up the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in which Cassian (Diego Luna) sacrifices himself to ensure that the Rebel Alliance gains access to the Death Star plans. While grounded within the mythology of Star Wars, Andor was praised for its timely parallels to real-world politics.
Andor ended on the appropriately bittersweet note, as it was always going to be somewhat depressing that Cassian would not live to see the Empire fall to its knees. However, the twist that Bix (Adria Arjona) was pregnant with his child was an emotional way to signify that his heritage of heroism would continue well into the future, and that the name “Andor” would be remembered throughout galactic history.
7
“Green Queen” (Season 1, Episode 10)
‘The Curse’ (2023–2024)
The Curse is one of the weirdest shows of all time because it combined the awkward, psychologically unnerving black comedy of Nathan Fielder with the relentless thrills of Benny Safdie. Although The Curse was a series that hinted at supernatural elements as a conflict that emerged between the white characters and the people of color whom they try to “save,” the finale, “Green Queen,” takes a surprising twist by including something completely fantastical.
The Curse’s ability to take a hard slant into the inexplicable was a daring choice that resulted in an ending that left viewers scratching their heads in a way television hadn’t seen since the ending of The Sopranos. Perhaps the greatest surprise is that Fielder, a comedian at heart, was capable of giving a profound, dramatic performance and proved himself worthy of sharing the screen with Emma Stone.
6
“The Book of Nora” (Season 3, Episode 8)
‘The Leftovers’ (2014–2017)
The Leftovers is the best show that Damon Lindelof has ever written, and in many ways makes up for some of the mistakes that were made on Lost regarding plot contrivances. The Leftovers may have started as an HBO show that was almost too bleak for its own good, but it evolved into a surprisingly thoughtful, moving expose on the way that people respond to the unexplained facets of life.
The Leftovers dropped any semblance of spectacle in its finale by reverting to focus singularly on the relationship between Nora (Carrie Coon) and Kevin (Justin Theroux), whose romance had been the guiding light of the series. Whether the story that is told within the final monologue should be believed is a debate that fans of The Leftovers still have, which is only further proof that the finale has a lasting power.
5
“START” (Season 6, Episode 10)
‘The Americans’ (2013–2018)
The Americans is one of the best contemporary dramas because it was both a thrilling espionage series and a thoughtful examination of the burdens placed upon a family. Although there was a threat hanging over Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell) from the beginning that suggested they would eventually have to choose between their loyalties to the Soviet Union and their new home in the United States, “START” forced them to confront this question in the most dramatic way possible.
“START” managed to finally pay off the storyline involving the character Stan, played by Noah Emmerich, in a remarkable performance. It’s even more impressive in retrospect to consider how authentically The Americans was as a depiction of what married life is like, especially since Rhys and Russell became married in real life after forming a bond while shooting the series together.
4
“Hello, Elliot” (Season 4, Episode 13)
‘Mr. Robot’ (2015–2019)
Mr. Robot didn’t have the finale that fans of Sam Esmail’s brilliant hacking drama expected because it didn’t center on a major showdown between Elliot Alderson (Rami Malek) and Whiterose (BD Wong), who has commanded the cyberterrorist organization Dark Army. Instead, the “Hello, Elliot” unpacked how Elliot’s various personalities had been born out of his desire to escape childhood trauma, and brought a satisfying conclusion to his relationship with Mr. Robot (Christian Slater).
Mr. Robot is a perfect example of why planning out a show in advance is a good thing, as Esmail knew exactly how Elliot’s story would end from the moment he began working on it, meaning that all the foreshadowing within the previous seasons paid off perfectly in “Hello, Elliot.” It also featured a staggering performance by Malek, who was able to unpack new layers to Elliot after shocking truths were revealed throughout the fourth and greatest season of the series.
3
“Saul Gone” (Season 6, Episode 13)
‘Better Call Saul’ (2015–2022)
Better Call Saul ended with a finale that was perfect and seemed to confirm that it was a masterpiece worthy of Breaking Bad, the series in which Bob Odenkirk had first debuted the character of Jimmy McGill, also known as “Saul Goodman.”
Better Call Saul had used a split narrative device since its beginning to show the events that lead Jimmy down a path of corruption and crime, as well as what his life looked like in the aftermath of the Breaking Bad finale, “Felina.” “Saul Gone” not only completed flashing back to the events of Breaking Bad and showing them from Saul’s perspective, but finally forced him to face the consequences of his actions; like Walter White (Bryan Cranston) before him, Saul became a narcissistic anti-hero who was incapable of being redeemed because of his unwillingness to show any change.
2
“Part 18” (Season 3, Episode 18)
‘Twin Peaks: The Return’ (2017)
Twin Peaks had a rocky road to its finale because David Lynch’s brilliant crime mystery was initially canceled by ABC in 1991, only for him to revive it in 2017 with a third and final season. Twin Peaks: The Return had trapped Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) in the body of the childish character for the majority of its eighteen episodes, but the ending saw him finally returning in an attempt to save Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) in the past before the murder that set up the show.
“Part 18” is among the bleakest hours of television ever aired because Cooper sees the misguided notion of trying to change the past, which inevitably leads Laura to suffer even more. It’s not only a perfect ending to Twin Peaks, but a poignant ending to Lynch’s work as an artist, as he did not direct any other movies or shows before his tragic passing in 2025.
1
“With Open Eyes” (Season 4, Episode 10)
‘Succession’ (2018–2023)
Succession ended in the only way it possibly could by finally facing Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Sarah Snook), and Roman (Kieran Culkin) with the consequences of aspiring to fulfill the legacy of their late father, Logan (Brian Cox). Although the question of who would take control of Waystar RoyCo had been debated throughout the entire show, “With Open Eyes” made a cruel twist; Shiv’s spurned husband, Tom (Matthew Macfadyen), would be placed as the new CEO, even though he had sold out the company to the invasive investor Matsson (Alexander Skarsgard).
Succession ended on a Shakespearean note that confirmed the tragic fates that each of the characters was doomed to after failing to come together to save the company. Nicholas Britell’s score has always been brilliant, but the musical cues he used within the final moments of “With Open Eyes” may be his greatest contribution to the show.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos is detailing the latest challenge in the ongoing search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mom, Nancy Guthrie.
“Our lab tells us there’s challenges with it,” Nanos told NBC News correspondent Erin McLaughlin in a new sit-down interview on Friday, February 20, detailing how the DNA found inside Nancy’s home is “mixed.”
According to the law enforcement officer, having “mixed” DNA means the sample contains DNA from more than one person, making it difficult to run through national databases.
“The technology is moving so fast and it’s such a frenzy that they think some of this stuff will resolve itself just in a matter of weeks, months or maybe a year,” Nanos continued.`
The search to find Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, is “a race against time,” according to Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos. Nanos appeared during the Tuesday, February 3, broadcast of the Today show and said he hopes “that window hasn’t closed” as the investigation into 84-year-old Nancy’s disappearance continues. “We took some samples that […]
Authorities confirmed on February 13 that “DNA other than Nancy Guthrie’s and those in close contact to her” was discovered in her Arizona home.
“Investigators are working to identify who it belongs to,” a statement shared with multiple media outlets read at the time. “We are not disclosing where that DNA was located.”
Nancy was first reported missing on February 1 after the 84-year-old failed to meet up with friends to attend a virtual church service. Authorities have not identified a person of interest or suspect in the matriarch’s ongoing disappearance, though investigators did rule out Savannah, her brother Camron, her sister Annie and their family members as possible suspects.

“Not one single person in the family is a suspect,” Nanos told KOLD 12 News on February 16. “So I am telling everyone, effective today, you guys [media] need to knock it off, quit. People are hurting. They are victims. I am saying they are clear. We have cleared them.”
On February 12, the FBI released an official description of a potential subject in the case after security camera footage showed a masked individual attempting to disable Nancy’s front door camera.
The subject is “a male, approximately 5’9’’ – 5’10’’ tall, with an average build. In [a newly-obtained security] video, he is wearing a black, 25-liter ‘Ozark Trail Hiker Pack’ backpack.” Officials confirmed they had received 12,000 tips from the public related to Nancy’s disappearance and were doubling the reward from $50,000 to $100,000 for any information that results in her rescue or recovery.
On Friday, Nanos admitted that the investigation is “not going fast enough.”
“It’s never fast enough for the sheriff,” he said. “I want it like you — come on guys, let’s go, let’s go, let’s find her. But the reality is that I also know that sometimes things take time.”
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos is hitting back at claims that he is blocking the FBI from accessing key evidence in the search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mom, Nancy Guthrie. In an interview with NBC Tucson affiliate KVOA on Thursday, February 12, Nanos said the allegations were “not even close to the truth.” Earlier on Thursday, […]
Despite Nanos admitting that there are “no names” authorities are currently looking into in connection with Nancy’s disappearance, he believes that they’re “getting closer” to finding her and her alleged kidnappers.
“In terms of leads and working and getting out there, I think that [the investigation] is still growing, yeah,” he explained. “I think we’re getting closer to identifying some of the other articles, not just that backpack — like the shoes, the pants, the shirt or jacket.”
When asked if he had a message for Nancy’s family as authorities continue their search, Nanos said: “We’re not quitting. We will find her. Yeah.”
Prince William faced questions about his mindset at the 2026 BAFTA Awards as controversy plagues the royal family due to his disgraced uncle, ex-Prince Andrew‘s recent arrest.
While attending the ceremony with Kate Middleton, the Prince of Wales admitted he is not in the right headspace to watch the emotional film “Hamnet.”

Prince William Admits He ‘Needs To Be A Calm State’ As He Skips ‘Hamnet’ At 2026 BAFTA Awards
William offered a candid glimpse into his state of mind following the arrest of his uncle, Prince Andrew, last Thursday.
The Prince of Wales attended the 2026 BAFTA Awards with his wife, Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, where he was asked about the film “Hamnet,” which won Best British Film at the ceremony.
The historical drama explores the grief of William Shakespeare and Agnes Hathaway after the death of their young son.
William, 43, admitted he has yet to watch the film, explaining that he is not currently in the right headspace.
According to the Daily Mail, he said, “I need to be in quite a calm state, and I am not at the moment,” adding that he “will save it.”
Kate, however, shared that she had already seen the movie and found it deeply moving.

Prince William And Kate Middleton Stepped Out in Style, As Ex-Prince Andrew’s Arrest Intensifies Royal Scrutiny
Despite the unfolding controversy within the royal family, the couple presented a polished appearance on the pink carpet.
Kate wore a blush-toned Gucci gown, while William opted for a burgundy velvet evening jacket by Giorgio Armani paired with black trousers. They smiled for photographers as they arrived at the event.
The Wales’ outing came days after Andrew was arrested on February 19, his 66th birthday, on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The former Duke of York was reportedly questioned for 11 hours before being released.
The allegations involve claims that he forwarded confidential trade documents to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Insider Claims The Monarchy May Not Move Forward Until ‘Andrew Goes To Prison’
Investigations could reportedly extend further, with UK authorities potentially seeking warrants to examine electronic devices and offices connected to Andrew, including spaces he occupied at Buckingham Palace.
A royal insider suggested that the situation may not fully settle until legal proceedings conclude, adding that some believe the monarchy may only move forward “if Andrew goes to prison.”
They added: “Truly, things can’t move on until we get a new reign [when Prince William is King], during which we might get a honeymoon period.”

King Charles III Expresses ‘Deepest Concern’ Over Prince Andrew Arrest As Pressure Mounts On Prince William
In response to Andrew’s arrest, King Charles III issued a statement through Buckingham Palace expressing “deepest concern” and emphasizing support for a full and proper investigation by the relevant authorities. William and Kate are understood to back the king’s position.
Earlier this month, the Prince and Princess of Wales also addressed newly released files related to Epstein, stating through a spokesperson that they remain “deeply concerned by the continuing revelations” and that their “thoughts remain focused on the victims.”
However, as developments continue to unfold, the situation is reportedly placing increasing pressure on William in his role as future king.
One longtime acquaintance of the prince suggested that while “William might be the changemaker the country needs, he won’t want it forced on him in this way.”
With growing public scrutiny surrounding the monarchy, expectations for accountability have intensified.
Still, others close to the royal household have urged restraint. One source emphasized that although the allegations surrounding Andrew are serious and troubling, they should not be seen as reflective of the institution as a whole.
According to the source, “one individual’s grave wrongdoing does not define the entire Royal Family, nor does it diminish the countless contributions they have made to our nation.”

Prince William Has Also Distanced Himself From Prince Harry, Royal Insider Claims
Meanwhile, William has reportedly created a greater distance between himself and his brother, Prince Harry, further straining a relationship that has remained fractured for six years.
The claim comes from Paul Burrell, Princess Diana’s former butler and onetime footman to Queen Elizabeth II.
In his new memoir, “The Royal Insider,” Burrell reflects on his decades of service within the royal household and offers his perspective on the brothers’ ongoing divide.
Speaking to Fox News Digital, Burrell suggested that the separation between William and Harry is more significant than the public may realize.
According to him, the Prince of Wales’ future role as king requires a different level of caution and control.
“I think William has distanced himself from Harry a lot more than people realize,” Burrell said. “Because William’s path is very different from Harry’s. As he gets nearer and nearer to the throne, which will be in a few years, he has to remain isolated. He has to be in a world that is very tight and protected.”

What Do You Think Roomies?
Polish Olympic speed skater Kamila Sellier is sending a positive message to American Kristen Santos-Griswold after Santos-Griswold accidentally cut Sellier’s face with her blade during a race at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
“Hi everyone, it has come to my attention that @kristensantos has been receiving a lot of messages blaming her for the accident. I kindly ask you not to place any blame on her,” Sellier, 25, posted via her Instagram story on Sunday, February 22. “What happened was not anyone’s fault. This is the nature of our sport — it carries inherent risks, and I am fully aware of them every time I step onto the ice.”
She continued, “Please remember that accidents can happen, and no one intended for this to occur. Let’s support one another instead of pointing fingers. Let’s choose kindness instead of hate.”
The accident occurred during the women’s 1500m event on Friday, February 20, when Sellier collided with Santos-Griswold, 31, on the ice. As the two crashed, Santos-Griswold’s blade slashed Sellier’s eye in a scary moment that turned bloody.
After receiving medical treatment, Sellier was taken off the ice on a stretcher. The athlete gave a thumbs-up to the stunned crowd on the way out.
Santos-Griswold was penalized for an illegal lane pass that contributed to the accident, eliminating her from the competition.
“@kristensantos I’m sending you lots of love and hugs,” Sellier posted on Sunday. “I know it’s not easy time for you as well.”

Santos-Griswold responded to Sellier’s message on her own Instagram account, reposting Sellier’s letter and thanking her for her kind words.
“Kamila, your kindness and strength mean more than I can put into words,” Santos-Griswold wrote. “The moment I realized she sustained a cut to the face from my blade, I went directly to her to check in. That’s the kind of respect we have for each other as competitors and as people. I would never intentionally put her in harm’s way, and I’m so grateful for her kindness and understanding.”
She continued, “Short track is fast and unpredictable. We all know the risks every time we step onto the ice. Thank you for reminding everyone of that and for choosing grace in a tough situation.”
The American finished her statement by wishing Sellier a speedy recovery.

Shootout in Puerto Vallarta
Poor Dog Caught in Chaotic Crossfire
Published
As authorities in Mexico combat the narco gangs terrorizing Puerto Vallarta and other parts of the country, the citizens — and pets — are left running for cover.
In a new video shared online, a dog is seen running for its life as blistering rounds of gunshots ring out overhead.
Waiting for your permission to load the Twitter Tweet.
Watch the clip … the footage is shaky, but you can clearly see a canine sprint across the frame as police reportedly fight to take back the entrance to Puerto Vallarta from cartel gunmen.
As we reported … the leader of the notorious Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes, was slain by army forces Sunday, unleashing a retaliatory strike from the violent crime outfit.
The US State Department reportedly advised American tourists to shelter in place, and Jalisco Governor Pablo Lemus Navarro issued a warning on X, saying, “We reiterate the recommendation to avoid leaving your homes. The clashes are occurring in several federal entities.”
Panic also spread at Guadalajara International Airport, where massive evacuations were seen after reported gunfire broke out there as well.
According to The New York Times, El Mencho was regarded as one of Mexico’s most violent criminals. He reportedly gained more prominence after the capture of Joaquin “El Chapa” Guzman.

JLo welcomed Emme and Max on February 22, 2008 with her then-husband Marc Anthony … a day Jen remembers well.

Kate Hudson is insisting that she did not grow up as privileged as people might think, despite being the daughter of Hollywood star Goldie Hawn and musician Bill Hudson.
The actress claimed during a recent podcast appearance that her parents never handed anything to her or her brother, Oliver.
According to Kate Hudson, unlike the kids she saw in Los Angeles in her younger years, she didn’t “coast by” with parents who assisted them with “everything.”

Kate Hudson On Her ‘Privileged’ Childhood And Lessons In Hard Work With Goldie Hawn
Kate Hudson has opened up about growing up amid Hollywood privilege while being raised by parents who valued hard work over entitlement.
Though her biological father is musician Bill Hudson, who was married to Goldie Hawn from 1976 to 1982, the actress and her brother Oliver were largely raised by Hawn and her long-time partner Kurt Russell, 74. Hudson has often described Russell as the father figure in her life.
On a recent episode of the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, Hudson reflected on her upbringing, recalling how her parents were firm about one principle: nothing would be handed to her.
“I grew up in L.A., where I saw kids coast by with parents who gave them everything,” she said, per Fox News Digital. “And I had the opposite parents.”

“We were clearly privileged kids,” she admitted, “but I do think that my parents were so adamant about how none of it belonged to us, like that we didn’t earn it, that in order to get a life like the one we were living, we had to earn it ourselves.”
“That it would never be available to us unless we had the same kind of work ethic,” Hudson added.

The Actress Recalls Seeing Her Peers Get Cars From Their Parents As Kids
Returning to Los Angeles for high school after her family moved to the outskirts of Aspen, Colorado, when she was young, Hudson attended the exclusive Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences in Santa Monica.
At her school, she saw the stark contrast between her upbringing and that of some of her peers.
The actress remembered classmates receiving luxury cars and gifts, while her parents emphasized discipline and effort over material rewards.
“You grow up, and you see kids get cars that you’re like, whoa. We were the kids — and we’re privileged — and we’re like, ‘Wow, I can’t believe their parents bought them a new car,” she recalled.

Kate Hudson Says She Was Happy Her Last Name Wasn’t Hawn Or Russell
Both Hudson and Oliver eventually followed careers in acting, with the “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” actress admitting she took what her parents taught her “to heart.”
“For me, I really took that to heart. I was like, ‘No, I can’t — I will never rely on my parents,’” she said.
The actress continued, “And that was my big thing. I will never take a job because of them. I won’t. I don’t want anybody knowing they’re my parents. When I first started, I was so happy my last name was Hudson. It was really, really important to me.”
Hudson credits her parents for instilling a strong work ethic that shaped her career. “If you really want to do this, if you really want to act, you have to put in the discipline,” she reflected.

The 46-year-old “Song Sung Blue” star radiated old Hollywood glamour in the strapless Prada ensemble, featuring a cinched waist that highlighted her slender figure. She complemented the look with delicate jewelry, including a standout diamond choker.
In high spirits on the red carpet, Hudson’s radiant smile matched the excitement of the evening. Her nomination for Best Leading Actress at the BAFTAs echoes her recent Oscar nod, marking 25 years since her first recognition in the same category.
This year, she faces competition from Jessie Buckley, Rose Byrne, Chase Infiniti, Renata Reinsve, and Emma Stone.
Kate Hudson Honored With Spotlight Award At Costume Designers Guild Awards
Earlier in February, Hudson attended the 28th Costume Designers Guild Awards at the Ebell in Los Angeles, where she was honored with the Spotlight Award.
The accolade recognizes actors whose careers reflect a lasting dedication to excellence and a strong appreciation for the art of costume design.
Speaking with Fox News Digital on the red carpet, Hudson shared what advice she might give her younger self.
“I think giving advice to my younger self would be like discounting all of the decisions that I made that were also like good decisions — even the mistakes and the ones that were challenging decisions that I made formed everything for who I am right now, so I wouldn’t go back and do anything different,” she said.

Still, reflecting on her career and her many memorable fashion moments on-screen, Hudson admitted to one small regret.
“You asked what I would do different and I was gonna say, I’d keep more clothes!” the actress joked.
Gerry Turner has a new love in his life post The Golden Bachelor, and he’s no longer keeping her under wraps.
After teasing their relationship for weeks, Gerry shared the identity of his girlfriend in an interview with TMZ in April 2025 — a year after his divorce from Golden Bachelor winner Theresa Nist.
Gerry said he met retired teacher Lana Sutton when she slid into his DMs. While he ignored her first message, Lana’s second attempt got his attention when she shared that she grew up in an Indiana town 20 minutes from him. He told TMZ that Lana is in her mid-50s and a former part-owner of a video production company.
He also shared photos of Lana on Instagram, writing, “I can’t believe how many people in Charleston recognized us and wished us the best.”
Bachelor Nation flocked to the comments, including Gerry’s past love interests Faith Martin and Susan Noles. “Awh so happy for you both!!❤️,” Faith wrote, with Susan adding, “So happy for you.”
Theresa, for her part, told Us Weekly that Gerry let her know about Lana prior to making the relationship public knowledge. “He said, ‘I just wanna let you know I met someone.’ I said, ‘That’s wonderful. I’m so happy for you.’ He goes, ‘I was afraid to tell you.’ ‘Why would you be afraid? I only want your happiness.’ Like, if this was the way it happened for him to find his person to go on the show, get married, and then find his person this way, then it was meant to be,” Nist told Us.

March 2025
Gerry said he took Lana to a restaurant on their first date in March and that they’ve been inseparable since. In an interview with TMZ the following month, he confirmed she’s met his kids and pickleball pals while he’s met a couple of her kids and her parents.
April 2025
Gerry revealed he was dating someone new on an episode of the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast.
“I am dating someone,” he said. “I think at this point it’s going well. But I don’t want to say too much and jinx it and I’m trying to respectfully get to a point where there’s an acceptable amount of time from my divorce. Maybe that’s an old fashioned thought — maybe it doesn’t matter as much as I think it does, but to be respectful, I kind of want to slow roll this.”
Gerry said he and the then-unnamed Lana bonded over their children and love of travel.
“The person I’m dating will say, ‘Do you want to go do?’ And before she gets out the rest of the sentence I will say, ‘Yes,’” Turner said, noting that he was instantly attracted to her.
“I hate to say it because I know I’m going to get baseballs thrown at me. It was almost the first time I saw her. It was the look that she gave me. It was like, all of a sudden, I was consumed by this look and I had this actual physical feeling and I pushed it off. I go, ‘That was silly, that’s ridiculous.’ And with every encounter that feeling has instantly come back with her look and it’s like, ‘Damn, this is pretty awesome,’” he said.
A few days after his “Bachelor Happy Hour” interview, Gerry revealed his girlfriend was indeed Lana during an interview with TMZ.
After revealing Lana’s identity, Gerry posted some photos via Instagram with the caption, “I can’t believe how many people in Charleston recognized us and wished us the best.”
Lana also shared some of the photos via her own Instagram, writing, “A couple memories from our first getaway to Charleston!”
April 2025
Gerry told People marriage could be a possibility for him and Lana.
He told the outlet he doesn’t know “that either of us necessarily would be looking to get married, but we’ve also said that’s not off the table.”
The pair have both been married twice, with Turner previously tying the knot with late wife Toni and saying “I do” with Theresa after getting engaged on The Golden Bachelor season 1. Turner, added that a “serious discussion” about exchanging vows is “down the road a bit.”
“But I do think we’ve both come to the comfortable agreement that we both want a long-term committed permanent relationship, and I think we’re both feeling like we’re there that we’re in that now,” he said. “It’s kind of two different things, but they are closely related.”
May 2025
Gerry, who was diagnosed with an incurable cancer in 2024, shared a carousel of photos of his and Lana’s recent travels via Instagram, writing, “The past two months have been an absolute blast — travel, adventure, and quality time with two families. Feeling grateful to have met such a kind-hearted woman. What a partner!”
He told People that they plan to travel to London and Paris this summer.
“We’ve been together every weekend,” Turner said. “She’s retired, so she’s not tied down. On a moment’s notice, she could come here or if I go there. There’s no encumbrances with work, so there’s just an awful lot of pluses that are helping us along.”
October 2025
Gerry proposed to Lana after less than one year of dating.
“We’ve got BIG news. The Golden Bachelor is OFF the market,” he wrote via Instagram. “I found my perfect match and she said ‘YES.’ I love this woman.”
February 2026
Turner shared in February 2026 that he and Sutton found their “perfect home.”
“Ther[e] have been many great days over the last 12 months traveling, bonding families, building a loving and fun relationship with Lana,” he wrote via Instagram, alongside photos of the twosome in front of a home. “But yesterday was one of the very best. Finding our perfect home was an arduous journey. So gratifying to close on our new home together.”
The Team USA men’s hockey team felt Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau’s spirits when they took home the gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics.
“Johnny and Matty should be here and that is still the biggest loss that all of us at USA hockey, their families [and] our family, has gone through,” Dylan Larkin told reporters after the Sunday, February 22, gold medal game. “Johnny [is] family first.”
Team USA beat Team Canada 2-1 in a sudden-death overtime win on Sunday, the American squad’s first gold medal victory since 1980’s famed “Miracle on Ice.”
“I think part of the puck not going in our net was somehow, that he’s standing there doing something,” Larkin, 29, said, adding that he pictures Johnny and Matthew laughing as they “just somehow they put a spell around [the Team USA] net where that puck didn’t go in.”
Team USA men’s hockey kept the late Johnny Gaudreau in their hearts when they officially became gold medal champions at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Team USA beat Team Canada 2-1 in the gold medal game on Sunday, February 22, where they sweetly honored Gaudreau upon their victory. (The American victory marks the first time that […]
Johnny and his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, were struck and killed by an alleged drunk driver while biking in New Jersey in August 2024, just days before their sister Katie Gaudreau’s wedding. The brothers were 31 and 29, respectively.
The siblings are survived by their parents, two sisters and respective wives and children. Matthew was married to Madeline Gaudreau, with whom he shared son Tripp. Johnny, for his part, is survived by his wife, Meredith Gaudreau, and their three children.
Meredith attended the gold medal game with her kids and in-laws.
“You should be here, John, and I’m so sorry you aren’t,” Johnny’s widow wrote via her Instagram Stories on Friday, February 20. “So proud of you and your legacy.”

As Team USA celebrated their victory, they held up an Olympics jersey with Johnny’s last name and invited his kids Noa, 3, and Johnny Jr., 2, onto the ice to celebrate with the team. (Johnny and Meredith also shared son Carter, who was born in April 2025.)
Larkin, for his part, told reporters that “just felt right” to invite Johnny’s kids onto the ice.
The Olympic victory also coincided with Johnny Jr.’s birthday.
“2-22 is baby Johnny’s birthday!! Special date picked by his daddy due to travel at the time,” Meredith wrote via Instagram on Saturday, February 21. “Happy 2nd birthday to our baby Johnny boy! We love you so much. I am so proud of you. Couldn’t think of a better way to spend your 2nd birthday than for a fun day tomorrow.”
Team USA had the full support of the Gaudreau family at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Johnny Gaudreau’s widow, Meredith Gaudreau, and his parents were spotted in the crowd during the men’s hockey semifinal matchup against Slovakia on Friday, February 20. (Team USA ultimately won the game, advancing to the gold medal championship round against Canada […]
Johnny’s mom, Jane Gaudreau, subsequently responded in the comments section.
“Happy Birthday Baby Johnny! Mom-Mom & Pop-Pop love you so much and we can’t wait to spend the day with you,” Jane wrote. “Love you to the moon and back!”
Johnny was a forward for the Columbus Blue Jackets and had ambitions to represent Team USA at the Olympics ahead of his death.
“He was determined to earn his spot on that Olympic roster,” the Gaudreau family wrote in a social media statement earlier this month. “While it breaks our hearts that John won’t be there to live out that dream, we know he will be so very present with Team USA and all of his close friends competing throughout these games. Though the Olympics will be bittersweet for our family, we find comfort knowing that in the hearts of his teammates, friends, and everyone who loved watching him play, John will be right there.”
