Tonight on Farmer Wants A Wife: Farmers Corey and Jack laid all their cards on the table at the Black-Tie dinner, where Oliva emerged as a strong contender for Jack’s heart after Monique and Hayley’s departure.
After some heartfelt one-on-one chats at the farm farewell dinner, Farmer Jack made the tough decision to send Monique home, leaving Olivia, Sarah and Hayley on the farm.
Jack said it was a lack of spark with Monique that shaped his decision. “Sometimes you can have all logical things align; you want the same thing, but perhaps the romantic connection just isn’t quite there.”
The next day, to celebrate the end of the farm stays, Jack, Corey and their ladies headed to the city for the final Farmer Wants A Wife get together, the Black-Tie Dinner.
Host Natalie Gruzlewski welcomed the farmers and ladies upon arrival, before announcing that “honesty” would be the theme of the night and a perfect opportunity to address any lingering doubts or questions about connections.
Natalie then went on to share with the group that with three ladies remaining, Jack would need to send another lady home by the end of the night.
This news added to the tensions at Jack’s table, where Sarah was making her feelings about the farmer clear to Olivia and Hayley, saying, “I think I do have a little bit of a stronger connection because we’ve had that bit more of a romantic and physical connection.”
Sarah then announced to the group that she would be “hurt” if Jack kissed Hayley or Olivia.
When challenged by Sarah about the topic of having children, Oliva took the opportunity to clarify the conversation she’d previously had with Jack, saying having a family was all about timing.
“I don’t want kids right now, but I have seen the possibility of kids in the past with a previous partner, so I know that’s possible for me if I’m with someone,” said Olivia, adding that she didn’t want to be defined solely as a mother.
Jack was pleased to hear Olivia speak about family still being on her radar and asked her outside for a one-on-one chat where the pair shared their first kiss.
Knowing that Sarah and Olivia were now his top two contenders, Jack asked Hayley outside to break the sad news to her – she would be going home at the end of the night.
Hayley was disappointed but understood Jack’s decision, saying, “We haven’t had that romantic spark as much as some of the other girls. I’m sad, but I know it’s not the end.”
Over at Corey’s table, the farmer asked Keeley and Chloe who they thought was the better match for him.
Keeley responded by saying she felt she complimented Corey’s personality. At the same time, Chloe spoke about her resilience and willingness to give everything a go, making her the perfect fit for farm life.
“I would fit in well with your life and the farm,” said Chloe. “I want to back myself and say that I think I’d be a great match. A better match.”
Corey reassured both ladies that they would fit into his life and was looking forward to the family visits to see how he would fit into theirs.
“Meeting their families should give me a lot more clarity on how I sit with their families and how I’d slot into their life,” Corey said of the highly anticipated visits.
