The 2024 season of Farmer Wants a Wife Australia (Season 14) delivered one of the most dramatic and highly-anticipated runs in the show's history, captivating viewers who tuned in to watch six hardworking farmers search for their soulmates. Premiering on April 14, 2024, on Channel 7 and 7plus, this season, hosted by the beloved Samantha Armytage, promised genuine connections and a return to the show's successful formula of creating real-life love stories. The journey saw these rural bachelors navigate speed dates, farm stays, and emotional decisions, but the real question on every fan's mind, as of today, December 11, 2025, is: which couples actually made it?

The 2024 Relationship Status: Which Couples Are Still Together Today?
The true measure of the show’s success lies in the post-filming reality. While the reunion special provides a glimpse, the months that follow are the ultimate test for these new relationships. Based on social media and public announcements made throughout the latter half of 2024 and into 2025, the final verdict is in. The results are a stark reminder of the long-distance and lifestyle challenges that face any reality TV couple.
The Enduring Success Story: Dustin and Sophie
The clear success story of the 2024 season is Farmer Dustin Manwaring and his chosen partner, Sophie Trethowan. Their relationship, which blossomed on the Condobolin farm, has gone from strength to strength since the cameras stopped rolling.
Dustin and Sophie are one of the rare reality TV couples who have not only stayed together but have also taken significant steps towards building a future. They have been actively sharing their journey on social media, including exciting updates about renovating their farmhouse. Their strong bond and shared vision for life on the land have made them the fan-favorite success story of the year, providing hope that the Farmer Wants a Wife format still works.
The Heartbreak: Couples Who Have Since Split
Unfortunately, the majority of the final pairings from the 2024 season did not manage to sustain their relationship in the real world. The challenges of distance, media scrutiny, and integrating their lives proved too much for several couples, leading to a wave of breakups announced in the months following the finale.
Farmer Joe Bobbin and Sarah: Joe, the sheep and cattle farmer from Bombala, chose Sarah in the emotional finale. However, their relationship was short-lived. Sarah publicly announced their split on Instagram in August 2024, confirming that they were no longer together. Joe later broke his silence, confirming the end of their journey.
Farmer Tom Boyer and Sarah: The youngest farmer of the season, Tom, chose his Sarah (not Joe's Sarah) as his final pick. While they were still together at the Reunion, which was filmed shortly after the final decision, the couple eventually went their separate ways. The pressures of a long-distance relationship, with Tom in Tabilk, Victoria, and Sarah living elsewhere, ultimately led to their breakup.
Farmer Dean Blackensee and Teegan: Dean, the cattle and watermelon farmer, made one of the season's biggest shocks by deciding to leave the show early with Teegan, sending his other two finalists, Bella and Tiffany, home. While this bold move suggested a strong connection, it was not meant to be. Dean later "hard-launched" a new girlfriend on his social media, confirming that his relationship with Teegan had ended post-show.
Farmer Bert Harris: Bert, the pineapple farmer from Queensland, failed to find love on the show, choosing to leave alone after struggling to make a final decision. At the reunion, he revealed he had since been in contact with one of his former suitors, but that connection also did not lead to a lasting relationship. He has since confirmed he is dating again, outside of the show.
Farmer Todd and Daisy: Late arrival Farmer Todd, who joined the group halfway through the season, chose Daisy in his finale. While their relationship provided a late-season spark, they were notably absent from the long-term success updates. Their current status is unconfirmed but is widely speculated to have ended, as they are not listed among the few couples who successfully navigated the post-show reality.
FWAW 2024's Global Impact: The Success of the US Season 2
While the Australian season had a mixed bag of results, the global format, particularly the US version, also had a strong 2024 run, adding to the show's overall topical authority. The US Farmer Wants a Wife Season 2, hosted by Jennifer Nettles, also aired in 2024 and saw multiple couples find long-term love, proving the format's international appeal.
Notable US success stories from the 2024 season include Nathan Smothers and Taylor BeDell, who are still together and tackling the long-distance challenge, and John Sansone and Claire Dirette, who also confirmed they are still a couple. These international successes highlight that while the Australian season's results were challenging, the core concept of bringing rural bachelors and city-based women together remains a powerful recipe for true love. The continued success of the franchise ensures that the search for a farmer's wife will continue for years to come.
