Farmer Nick’s girl Liz wants to let viewers know one thing: there was a lot of kissing going on that never made it to air on Farmer Wants A Wife.

“Nick and I had such a connection in the beginning,” Liz, 34, reveals to TV WEEK.

“We were sneaking around kissing once the cameras stopped. It would usually be in the living room or something. It was a bit scary wondering if we’d get caught.”

There was a lot that happened on Nick’s farm that didn’t make it to air.

Liz says the reason she had a “tantrum” over Nick kissing Emma was that he had kissed her just before and after the date.

“He hadn’t even brushed his teeth,” she says. “I wouldn’t have kissed him if I’d known he’d just kissed Emma, because I thought that was disrespectful. It’s why I was angry.”

Farmer Nick has done his fair share of pashing on and off screen.

The Queensland marriage celebrant says she could definitely feel the tension when she was around Nick’s other top-three girls, Emma and Naomi. She says Emma was “acting out” towards her at the cocktail parties.

“There were times when she was actually mouthing off about me within earshot and I’d just be like, ‘Emma, I’m right here. Can you just talk to me about it?’ I think it all comes back to jealousy.”

This week, Nick has to make his final decision. Will he stick with his early favourite Liz?

The ladies vying for Farmer Harry’s heart are at odds.

Meanwhile, Harry has to choose between Stacey and Madison, the girl who quit and then came back.

Stacey says it’s been disappointing to see the “snide comments” made on social media by Madison and one of Harry’s other top-four girls, Karlana.

“I was really surprised and disappointed,” Stacey, 28, says. “Ash and I were the older two and made so much effort with Madison, especially after Karlana left, trying to make her feel welcome and comfortable with us.”

Stacey says that although Madison comes across as shy and nervous on Farmer Wants A Wife, she’s “not like that, not at all”.

“When the original eight of us first met, she was the life of the party; she was super-fun and bubbly,” she says. “Then as soon as the cameras were on, or Harry was around, she wasn’t like that.”

This week, Harry takes Stacey and Madison to meet his family. After the visit, Stacey seems upset. She says it’s because of the way Madison was acting around Harry’s family.

“I just felt it was really fake and really hard to watch and be around,” she says. “It felt really put on.”

It’s a big decision for Harry. Two very different girls – which one has his heart?
