Shocking Farmer Wants A Wife twist as the reality dating show returns: ‘Just not meant to be’

A shocking twist has been revealed involving the cast of this year’s Farmer Wants A Wife.

Sunday’s premiere, hosted by Samantha Armytage, introduced viewers to Farmers Tom, Bert, Joe, Dustin and Dean, who are all looking for love.

However, a roster of eight bachelor farmers were originally considered for the popular Channel Seven dating show and only five made the cut. 

A source recently told New Idea this is the ‘typical format of the show’, with more farmers announced in pre-production than the number that goes to air.

One of the dumped bachelors, South Australian cattle and crop farmer Zac, opened up about being canned from the show to Greater SA last month, saying ‘some things just aren’t meant to be.’

However,  Zac, 28, also said he remains hopeful he will find his match some other way.

The other farmers snubbed by the show include Nick, 22, also from South Australia, and 33-year-old cattle rancher Todd from Baan Baa, New South Wales.

Set across farms in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria, the 2024 season of the hit reality show features five strapping young farmers looking for love.

Sunday’s episode saw Farmers Bert, Dustin, and Dean embark on a whirlwind of speed-dating to pick their chosen girls.

Farmer Dustin confessed, ‘It’s very important to have somebody that fits in the family. It’s hard to find someone who’s right for the farm. It’s like trying to find a needle in the haystack.’ 

Meanwhile, a case of the jitters struck Farmer Bert as he laid eyes on Karli, a 32-year-old with a knack for customer service.

Overcome by her presence, he admitted, ‘Karli’s definitely distracting. Just finding the right questions and stuff is a little intimidating. I think there’s a bit of a spark in there.’ 

Farmer Bert selected Caity, Karli, Caitlin, Lauren, and April.

Farmer Dean opted for Bella, Teegan, Tiffany, Kate, and Hayley.

And lastly, Farmer Dustin chose Sophie, Anna, Chloe, Izzy, and Kara.
