A year after his Married At First Sight television debut, lonesome cowboy Sean Hollands, 36, has finally found happiness again … and it’s with a woman he’s known for years!
The reality star has fallen head over heels for Magic Millions bid spotter Roslyn Buerckneer, 35.
The pair connected three years ago while volunteering for Heeling Hooves, a charity specialising in equine therapy for people with special needs.
But despite exchanging plenty of phone calls, it wasn’t until Sean returned to Queensland after filming on Married at First Sight wrapped that they finally met face-to-face.
“We had spoken over the phone a number of times over the years but we didn’t meet in person until August,” explains Sean.
The couple have a thriving long-distance relationship.
Both Roslyn and Sean are single parents.
“She actually stood me up twice! Once before the show and again after,” he tells.
Sean is still based on his property in rural Queensland while working as a fly in fly out mining technician and Roslyn is living on the Gold Coast.
However while his onscreen romance with “wife” Susan Rawlings struggled due to distance, Sean says he and Roslyn – also a horse-woman – are dedicated to making their romance work.

“We’re prepared to do long distance for a couple of years,” Sean explains.
“We’re prepared to do long distance for a couple of years – Rosalyn says we’re already in a 50-year-contract.”
It’s not just horses the pair have bonded over, Roslyn is a single parent like Sean.
It may not have worked out with his TV bride Susan…
But the future looks bright for this farmer!
“We wanted to go on a couple of dates and get the kids to meet, because we knew if it wasn’t going to work with them it wasn’t going to work for all of us.”
Sean says that having more kids isn’t something the couple are planning, but there’s one thing he is certain will happen – and that’s him getting down on bended knee.
“We have talked about it and I do plan to propose but I’ll keep that a surprise for when the time comes,” he says.
