Farmer Wants a Wife — AKA my favourite Australian dating show — is back in full swing, and this year’s farmers might just take the cake. They’re all such catches!
This season, we’re following Farmer Ben, 27, from Wingham, NSW, Farmer Harry, 24, from Kyabram, VIC, Farmer Will, 26, from Berriwillock, VIC, Farmer Benjamin, 33, from Guyra, NSW, and Farmer Paige — the show’s first female farmer — who’s 28 and from Cassilis, NSW.
One of the women that’s still in the running for Farmer Ben’s heart, Lauren, is a super sweet 24-year-old nurse from Victoria.
“I’ve realised conventional ways of finding love haven’t worked for me, so I am taking a risk to hopefully find a genuine connection,” says Lauren in a statement provided by 7.
“A life on the farm sounds like early mornings, hard work, beautiful sunsets and a whole lot of fun in between. Also, I grew up on a dairy farm and am not afraid to get my hands dirty.”
As shown in their initial one-on-one date, prior to Farmer Ben choosing Lauren to stay with him at his farm, her childhood on a dairy farm was something they bonded over.
That, and being a hopeless romantic.
“I’m a hopeless romantic at heart and feel like life is better spent with someone you love. Backrubs are the way to my heart. Reflecting on past relationships, I think I maybe became complacent when in a relationship that felt secure.”
On the most recent episode, Lauren’s insecurities came to the forefront with Farmer Ben choosing her for the 24-hour date. Lauren felt conflicted, given his clear attraction and connection to Leish; another lady on the farm, that got Farmer Ben’s first 24-hours of alone time.
However, the episode ended on a cliffhanger, so we’re yet to know whether Lauren decided to go on the date or not.
