Golden Bachelor’s Susan and Kathy’s controversial advice on dating married men had stirred quite a conversation, and now the buzz is all about Susan’s transformation. In the throwback picture, Noles—who is known for her Kris Jenner bob hairstyle—had her brown locks grown all the way to her waist, parted and tied into two ponytails. She wore a brown graphic tee, high-waisted jeans, and went barefoot while sitting cross-legged on the sofa.

Fans flooded the comments section with their guesses, with one person writing ‘1969 Woodstock Era,’ while another added, ‘Early 70s.’ Other fans guessed early 1970s too, but many couldn’t get over Noles’ appearance. One admirer gushed, ‘You’re beautiful then and now!!!!!’ Another commented, ‘1974……you look adorable! You have kept your beautiful smile. I still see this fresh face in you today!’
Golden Bachelor’s Susan has recently exposed the split between Gerry and Theresa, and surprisingly blamed Theresa for it. In another instance, she addressed dating rumors after a mystery man frenzy erupted. In a candid take, Noles defended her fellow contestants after the news about Joan Vassos was revealed, showcasing a supportive and empathetic side.
Earlier in the month, Noles and her podcast co-host Kathy Swarts revealed what they’re looking for in men, including the age gap they’re willing to accept. The pair quickly bonded during their time on the show and have built a lasting friendship even though neither won Gerry Turner’s final rose. On the Jennifer Hudson Show, the duo talked about their romantic pursuits post-show.
Noles candidly shared that their love lives have stalled, stating, ‘We don’t have them. Well, we’re a little busy.’ Swarts humorously noted her social media direct messages are filled with younger men. ‘I’ve had some young guys, like 35 and 40. I’ve already raised one guy, my husband,’ she said. The 70-year-old continued to detail her thoughts on dating younger men.
Swarts clarified, ‘I’m not raising anymore men. I have children older than that. So, no.’ When Hudson inquired about how young is too young for potential partners for the ‘golden’ ladies, Swarts quipped, ’35,’ but admitted she’s only willing to ‘go 10 years younger.’ Her 67-year-old co-star Noles agreed, adding, ’57. Unless he’s really, really special. Maybe 55.’
Swarts shared her desires for a partner, saying, ‘I want a guy who I can travel with and have fun with…I want a guy who will cook for me.’ Noles concurred, admitting, ‘For the first time ever, I wanna be treated like a queen…it’s time for me.’ They discussed their dating outlook and experiences on their podcast ‘Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour,’ giving listeners an honest glimpse into their love lives.
The throwback picture and ensuing comments demonstrate the enduring charm and appeal of Susan Noles. It’s a trip down memory lane that also shows how much she’s evolved, both in appearance and life experiences.
