It’s been deemed the “most successful dating show in the world”, resulting in more than 180 marriages and 410 children. So the Farmer Wants A Wife couples still together might pleasantly surprise you. The hit reality dating show first debuted in the UK in 2001 and is in its second season in the US.

The premise is that farmers—who find it difficult to find spouses because of their isolating professions—are introduced to women from the city as potential life partners. “In a trend that’s been sweeping America over the last few years, there’s been a migration from city centers to suburban and rural locales, and with that, love follows,” a press release from FOX reads.

There’s a reason reality TV has remained popular in the past quarter-century. “The experience of watching these shows, like looking in the mirror, is interactive. We see ourselves, and then we groom ourselves accordingly,” sociologist Danielle J. Lindemann writes in True Story: What Reality TV Says About Us. “We’re voyeurs, but part of what tantalizes us about these freak shows is that the freaks are ourselves.” He added that we love reality TV “for all of its extreme personalities and outlandish premises, reality TV reflects how regressive we truly are.” 

In the Canadian version of Farmer Wants a Wife (known as Farming For Love) developed by Fremantle Media, five Canadian farmers searching for love must open their hearts to a group of urban singles. As they date, the city contestants must adjust to the rural lifestyle and engage in challenges, group activities, and one-on-one dates. Ultimately, the farmers choose who they want to pursue a relationship with at the end of the series.

Farmer Wants a Wife has been broadcast in Australia since 2007. The first eight seasons, until 2016, were hosted by Sam McClymont and broadcast on the Nine Network. The series was dropped by Nine and picked up by the Seven Network in 2015 and the show was revived for seasons nine, 10, 11, and 12. The show was renewed in October 2022 for a 13th, which aired in 2023.

Season 3 of the US version aired its finale on May 22, 2025, we wondered about the Farmer Wants A Wife couples still together across the major international franchises as well as at home. Spoiler alert: None of the US couples from season 1 are still together.
