Farmer Dylan entered Farmer Wants a Wife as a breath of fresh air in 2026. The 24-year-old sheep farmer and rodeo cowboy from Cherry Gardens, South Australia, set hearts fluttering with his dreamy good looks, country swagger and sweet demeanour with his ladies.
Dylan ultimately chose chocolate shop worker Ally as his winner over runner-up Scarlett, and the pair dropped the L-bomb before cameras stopped rolling. But now, Dylan has confirmed the relationship is over.
Farmer Dylan and Ally’s love story on Farmer Wants A Wife
Farmer Dylan and Ally shared an immediate spark on Farmer Wants a Wife before solidifying their connection during a romantic 24-hour date and a spontaneous mid-confessional kiss.
However, Ally’s confidence was shaken when intruder Keeley arrived and kissed Dylan on a date. Feeling hurt, Ally dramatically left the farm and told Dylan he needed to follow her if their relationship mattered. Dylan ultimately tracked her down, but Ally refused to return to his farm.
She later made a surprise comeback at the black-tie dinner, kissed Dylan in front of the women, including Keeley, leading to the intruder going home and Scarlett questioning whether she should stay. Ultimately, Dylan reassured Scarlett that their connection was strong, which sent both Ally and Scarlett into the battle for Dylan’s heart.
In the finale, Ally introduced Dylan to her family before the chocolate shop worker admitted to her ‘strong’ feelings for the farmer in a steamy spa date. “If I’m dead honest, I am falling in love with you,” she said, getting emotional.
Dylan awkwardly replied “thank you,” but admitted in a confessional that this was the green flag he’d been waiting for. “She’s finally given me what I’ve been chasing,” Dylan said.
Then came FWAW’s fairytale finish, as Dylan finally admitted his feelings for Ally. “I have to follow how I feel and I love you,” he said. Ally replied “Me?” before Dylan quickly added “I love you a lot.”
The gorgeous couple kissed, as Dylan joked to Ally: “You’re not allowed to run now, though.”
“I reckon we’re in love,” admitted Dylan in his final thoughts. “It felt good to say it!” added Ally.
Are Farmer Dylan and Ally still together?
The two young lovebirds ended their Farmer Wants A Wife journey in love, but did they stay together? Sadly, no. Dylan tells Woman’s Day the split came down to two very different futures.
“When filming finished and we were back into normal life, I spent a lot of time thinking about what the next few years would look like and I had to be honest with myself,” he says.
“I wasn’t willing to compromise on the goals and dreams that I’m chasing. And I couldn’t ask Ally to compromise on the future that she wanted.”
Dylan says his ambitions to become a successful saddle bronc rider mean much of his life will be spent “on the road” – a lifestyle he felt was unfair to ask Ally to build a future around.
Ally had been preparing to leave her home in Maitland, NSW, to move to Dylan’s farm in South Australia when the pair had the conversation.
“I was willing to reshape my life to join his but I also realised I needed to feel chosen in return,” she says. “I was making plans to move and build a home and make that life work.”
Ally reveals the pair actually split a month after the reunion was filmed, and that she spent two weeks on Dylan’s farm afterwards. “I’m disappointed that it didn’t work out but just because a relationship has ended doesn’t mean it’s failed,” she says.
Dylan admits he got swept up in the show. “I think that played a part because the farm kind of takes a back seat in your mind and you’re like, ‘Yeah, this can work,’ and then you’re back to reality,” he confesses, adding he’s “not proud” of how it’s ended up.
Despite the breakup, both say there are no hard feelings.
“Ally and I are really good mates and I really cherish our friendship,” Dylan says.
“Dylan’s kindness, humour and generosity didn’t disappear when our romantic relationship ended,” Ally adds. “Sometimes the strongest connections are ones that evolve into friendship rather than end completely.”
