During the interview, they were asked if they are still looking for love, to which they both said yes. Theresa encouraged the viewers to continue to look for love. Gerry then turned to his former wife and said, “You know I still love you,” to which Theresa replied, “And I still love you.” FAMILY FIRST When the couple was asked what changed in their relationship, they admitted that it came down to family. “The thing that strikes me the most in our conversations, it’s been how dedicated both of us are to our families,” Gerry said. “I think we just feel like it’s best for the happiness of each of us to live apart.” Theresa and Gerry were trying to decided on whether they wanted to live in New Jersey or South Carolina. Theresa confessed that she will have to “give her ring and dress back” to Gerry. “But you know, we won’t have to give back the memories,” Gerry said with tears in his eyes.
