“We’re over”: FWAW’s Claire reveals why she cancelled her wedding to Andrew

Plus, she dishes on whether she'd get back with Andrew.

Farmer Wants a Wife’s Claire Saunders has revealed why she cancelled her wedding to Andrew Coleman after abruptly announcing the news in an Instagram post.

In July, Claire took to Instagram to reveal that her wedding to the 2023 FWAW lead was off.

“My dogs and I have headed north to Darwin to work for the dry season. Andrew and I have had to cancel our wedding due to reasons out of our control, but we are both okay,” she began in an Instagram post.

“I’m not sure what else to say other than, sometimes life is hard and we all just need a little breathing space. There will be no farming content from me for the foreseeable future,” she cryptically added.

Now, she’s opened up about why they decided to cancel their wedding, and where their relationship stands now.

Why did FWAW’s Claire cancel her wedding to Andrew?

Claire told So Dramatic that she and Andrew had spent time planning their nuptials before she decided to pull the plug.

“Andrew was quite stressed due to the wedding planning and his father being unwell… So we started arguing about silly things,” she told the podcast.

“He said: ‘I don’t know’,” she continued. “I asked him why we got engaged, and he said it was because that’s the natural progression of things.”

Claire explained that his non-committal reply led her to call the wedding off.

“I saw red. Then I said: ‘I’m not going to drag you to the altar’. And the next day I told him I was cancelling the wedding. It was supposed to be a joyous time… I felt like he took that away from me.”

Are Claire and Andrew still together?

While the wedding is clearly not going ahead, are FWAW’s Claire and Andrew still together?

“We’re over, we’re finished,” she told the podcast.

“I’m seeing out the dry season here in Darwin, and when that finishes up, I’ll pick up the rest of my stuff [from Andrew’s farm] and head to Tasmania.”

She added that she doesn’t think she and Andrew will get back together.

“The ship has sailed for me because of the amount of damage that he has caused in all relationships, not just ours,” she said.

“My family’s relationship with him, his family’s relationship with me. It’s not harmonious now. It’s not as pure as it was.”

Oooft. Back to the city she goes!
