'DWTS’ contestant Charity Lawson gives ‘Golden Bachelor’ star Gerry Turner advice
Former "Bachelorette" star Charity Lawson tells Fox News Digital the challenges she faced on the dance competition show and gives advice to new couples on "The Golden Bachelor."
"Dancing with the Stars" contestant and former "Bachelorette" Charity Lawson has a few relationship tips for the "Golden Bachelor" Gerry Turner.
"My advice for them, obviously, now that they are public and going forward with their relationship, is to just spend as much time as possible really getting to know each other outside of … the camera world and what that bubble is," Lawson shared with Fox News Digital during the "Dancing with the Stars" season finale.
"It is very different, and it's a different approach to how you have to adjust to it … also keeping your relationship private. Everyone doesn't have to know everything."

While Lawson was the star of "The Bachelorette" season 20 this year, the "Golden Bachelor" Turner recently proposed to new fiancée Theresa Nist. Lawson is engaged to Dotun Olubeko from her season on the show.
Before Turner became the first engaged "Golden Bachelor," he told the final two contestants he was in love with both of them. Turner ended up saying goodbye to Leslie Fhima and chose Theresa as his final pick.

"There's a regime of exercise, of stretching, of some lifting maintenance. And I'm at a stage in life that … I do it because I can. And I don't like the alternative," he laughed.
"I'm going to take the rest of this month off and try and get my knees back in shape. And then we're off to the next exciting adventure."
