Who's going to be the 'Golden Bachelorette'? Here are the most likely leads

Ah, Susan, our fun-loving, flatulent queen. We'd watch a full season of her doing anything, whether it was making a big batch of meatballs and Sunday gravy, kicking ass in pickleball, or just gossiping about her sexual escapades over a pint of ice cream with the girls.

Kris Jenner's long-lost twin was one of the major highlights of this season of "The Golden Bachelor," and we think she'd make an unforgettable Golden Bachelorette. Someone, please, give this woman a reality show of some kind.

Faith's breakup with Gerry after hometown dates was heartbreaking, especially considering that they'd just said "I love you" to one another. We'll be honest and say that while we love Gerry, we didn't think he handled things with Faith in the best way,

But Faith kept her cool during the breakup and was the picture of poise during the "Women Tell All" special. Her ability to be both vulnerable and composed on reality TV would make her the perfect candidate for the Golden Bachelorette, and we'd love to see the spinoff explore more of Faith's rugged country lifestyle. (Can we have another horseback riding date, please? And more footage of Faith on a motorcycle, thanks.)

It's not unheard of for producers to pick the runner-up of a given season to be the next Bachelor or Bachelorette — case in point: Joey Graziadei being named Bachelor after Charity Lawson proposed to Dotun Olubeko instead. While we're still waiting to see who Gerry will propose to, either Leslie or Theresa would make an amazing Golden Bachelorette.

Leslie has been open about her struggles to find love after two marriages, and we love her fun-loving attitude, sexy dance moves, and the fact that she was apparently Prince's girlfriend at one point in time.

And fans got to see a whole other side of Theresa during her Fantasy Suites date last week, when she opened up about her career and her ambitions.

Both women deserve their happily-ever-after, so it'd be great if whoever isn't chosen by Gerry gets another shot at love as the Golden Bachelorette.

Sadly, Joan had to leave "The Golden Bachelor" shortly after her first one-on-one date with Gerry. The two clearly had a strong connection, but Joan decided to put family first after learning her daughter was experiencing postpartum depression.

We think it'd be great if Joan got a second chance at love as the Golden Bachelorette. Her empathy and dedication to family are admirable, and we loved how open she was about beginning the search for love again after being widowed just over two years ago.

And when asked during a recent interview if she had any interest in being the Golden Bachelorette, Joan said yes.

"I also wouldn't hate more than one Bachelorette," she told Business Insider, referencing former co-Bachelorettes Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey.

"I think that we'd be good together," Joan continued. "I mean, it's obvious that we're very supportive of each other and there's no animosity when something great happens to each other."

Watching Ellen get the "princess date" (where a contestant is pampered with a shopping spree) on "The Golden Bachelor" was a genuine treat. Gerry noted that Ellen probably didn't get a lot of chances to pamper herself, and it was heartwarming to watch her light up when he gifted her a beautiful pair of diamond earrings.

Ellen's kindness and earnestness would make her a solid choice for Golden Bachelorette. We think Ellen deserves to be spoiled 24/7, and what better way to treat yourself than by having a house full of dapper gentlemen fight for your heart?
