In a shocking plot-twist on Farmer Wants A Wife, Jarrad chose Brodie as his final pick, with initial front-runner Yvonne breaking things off with Jarrad after her friends and family visit.
While Yvonne got in to end things with Jarrad first, his bond with Brodie was undeniable during her hometown visit, with Jarrad labelling her as “genuine and the real deal”.
“I want you to know you’re enough, and Brodie I choose you and I’m falling in love with you,” an emotional Jarrad said during the finale episode.
Brodie was a dark horse in the competition, not getting much airtime until the final episodes, where Jarrad admitted he and Brodie had shared the most off-camera kisses.
At the reunion, the two were still together, with Brodie saying she had met Jarrad’s two sons.
“It was a beautiful experience, and they were lovely, and more than anything, it was nice to see Jarrad in his element with the boys,” she said, while Jarrad added that their connection was “strong” and that they’re “excited for the future.”
Yvonne opens up about Brodie and Farmer Jarrad’s relationship
Yvonne told Woman’s Day that she initially perceived Jarrad and Brodie’s connection as just a good friendship, and it was only at the black-tie dinner that she realised their bond had become deeper.
The true frustration, according to Yvonne, wasn’t just the eventual demise of her relationship with Jarrad, but Jarrad’s complete “inability to just be honest”. She recalled confronting him directly at the farm fair, begging for transparency, only to receive evasive answers.
“He had actually seen me crying, and still didn’t approach me to discuss it,” she reveals. “It’s him in front of the cameras, wanting to show his best self, rather than developing a connection with me in a genuine, organic setting.”
Yvonne said she hasn’t spoken to Jarrad since the finale. “That’s his business,” she said.
But what we do know is that there’s no bad blood between Brodie and Yvonne.
“I talk to all the girls,” Yvonne told Woman’s Day, saying all of Jarrad’s ladies planned to meet up post-show for a catchup.
Are Farmer Jarrad and Brodie still together?
Jarrad and Brodie have now confirmed they are no longer together, addressing the speculation directly in a joint statement to Woman’s Day.
“Following the end of Farmer Wants A Wife, there’s naturally been interest in our relationship status,” the pair shared. “While we’re not together at this time, we remain an important part of each other’s lives and have a great deal of respect and care for one another.”
“We’re incredibly grateful for the experience we shared and for everyone’s support throughout our journey,” they added.
A source close to the show previously told us that watching the show back may have been hard for the pair, hinting at trouble in paradise.
“It’s difficult to watch the show back and watch your man make out with other girls,” our source said. “I know that’s been hard.”
