It’s finally the finale of Farmer Wants a Wife Australia 2023 and Farmer Brenton and Farmer Brad are about to make the ~bIgGest DEcIsiON~ of their lives.
To recap, during last week’s episode, Farmer David chose Emily and Farmer Matt chose Olivia, with Sophie and Rachel still on Farmer Brenton’s Farm and Clare and Morgan on Farmer Brad’s.
Firstly, we hear our two remaining Farmers share what they’re looking for. Brenton wants someone who is “genuine and loving and caring” and a “best friend and a soul mate” and Brad is hoping for someone he can live “happily ever after” with.

To kick things off, Farmer Brad is visiting Morgan’s family in Brisbane.
“My biggest fear is being heartbroken again,” Brad says, lamenting that they loved him but not the farm.
Brad arrives at Morgan’s house sans hat and is greeted by Morgan’s mum Angie, dad Dave (yes, another one), sister Grace and brother-in-law Matt, who truly looks petrified to be there.

Morgan begins by saying that they would be “impressed” by how she was on the farm and jokes that she was “the worst at everything”.
Angie tells the cameras that Morgan looks “happy” but wants to see “how they will make their relationship work.”
Morgan says she’s checked the local school out and after meeting the family, Brad says he can see a future with her but is worried that she “doesn’t get the isolation of farm life”.
Farmer Brenton and Sophie
Farmer Brenton is in Hamilton to meet Sophie’s family, one of his “favourites from the start”.
He reflects on their journey together but is concerned that she wants to travel, something he cannot do while working on a farm.
Once with “Soph”, he says he’s nervous to meet her parents; and although they are a farming family, they have a gorgeous house in town.
“I do have butterflies but I don’t know what they mean,” he says. “Whether I’m excited for it or if I’m sh**ting myself.” LOL.
Brenton meets Sophie’s parents including mum Robyn, who have been married for over 30 years plus grandmas Janice and Mary— who are too goddamn cute.
Janice doesn’t watch a lot of “reality” but is concerned for her granddaughter because when she does, the girls are always crying…

At the lunch table, Janice tells the story of how she met “my Roger”, who asked her to dance at a social. Mary, who grew up in the city but wanted to marry a farmer, met her husband at a dance as well.
“He was a beautiful dancer, fell in love, got married, [had] four children and lots of lovely grandchildren,” Mary told them. Le sigh.
Brenton is concerned by the chatter at the table when it turns to Sophie’s urban life.

Sophie sits down for a chat with her mum, who says: “You haven’t known him very long.” She then asks if she thinks her daughter is “ready” to live back on a farm, who says there’s “a strong connection” there.
“Reality will set in,” Robyn says and ooooft.
After lunch, Brenton and Sophie share a glass of bubbles and he addresses his worries with her. She says that her parents know how adventurous she is, but she says she’s ready for the farm.
“I want to spend my life with someone like you,” she says.
Brenton tells the cameras his head “is in a bit of a spin”, but that his decision will ultimately come down to who is best “suited to the farm”.
Farmer Brad and Claire
Farmer Brad arrives to meet Claire to go to her family’s property outside of Tamworth.
Clare wants Brad to be “stressed” since she’s been stressing the whole season and then says that her brother doesn’t like anyone.
At her family home, Farmer Brad is meeting mum Cathy, dad Graham and younger brother Michael, who jokes that “it’s a two-horse race and hopefully she [Clare] is the favourite”.
Michael clearly has no filter and questions whether Brad will say the same things to “the other bird’s” family and his own fam is mortified.

Farmer Brad calls Clare’s brother “quite the character” and that’s one word for it…
Michael then tells him that Clare has had plenty of boyfriends over the years and he’s had to “sort them out” adding that he’ll “sort out” Brad too.
When Clare and Cathy sit down for a one-on-one, Cathy calls Brad “stylish”. Clare says she’d be devastated if she wasn’t chosen before her mum asks how soon she’d move.
Her mum is concerned that she’s eight hours a day and says, “We’re going to miss you terribly”.
Meanwhile, Brad and Michael have a conversation and Michael reveals that the guys in the past haven’t treated Clare right. He also says that she wants kids and is honest about that, which scares men off.

Brad is worried Clare will also miss her family if she moved to the farm.
Farmer Brenton and Rachel
While recapping their journey, Farmer Brenton says he feels like “Rach” is his best friend but doesn’t know how she feels about him.
They are then joined by mum Helen, dad Matt, younger twin sisters Emily and Chloe and of course, Farmer Matt’s past bae, identical twin Chelsea.

Chelsea says it’s nice to see how “comfortable” they are with each other and Rachel admits that she could definitely move to the farm straight away.
The family warms to Brenton and Rachel thinks they have a “good judge of character” before the twins go for a chat.
“I am falling for him,” she tells Chelsea. “I just hope he realises it as well. We would be so good together.”

Farmer Brad and Clare’s final one-on-one
Farmer Brad and Clare take some time together before the final decision is made. He is concerned that her feelings are not strong enough against the pull of her family.
He also wants her to just “let it all out on the line”, something she has struggled with in the past.
![](https://www.chattr.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Screenshot-2023-05-20-at-11.41.49-am-1024x563.jpg)
Clare says that Brad did well with her family and she tells him that Cathy was nervous about her moving to the farm.
She then tells him she “cares so much” about him but can’t “get too excited”. Brad is worried she can’t break the walls down, meaning would she be able to do that in the future.
Does anyone else feel like these two are AWKWARD AF?! My god.
Farmer Brenton and Rachel
Farmer Brenton and Rachel are also enjoying their final one-on-one time in a horse-drawn carriage.
She finally tells him that she’s been “hiding” her feelings for him because she’s never told anyone she’s loved them before.
“It’s hard for me to say but I feel like I am, kind of falling for you,” she says.
They mack on and it’s hella romantic.

Farmer Brenton was “in shock” and said the more time he spends with her the stronger he feels as well.
“I really do think that Brenton and I have something special,” she says.
Farmer Brenton’s Decision
First up is Farmer Brenton’s final decision between Rachel and Sophie.
Out of the car first is Sophie, who felt a connection with him from day one.
“The moment I first laid eyes on you, you took my breath away,” Brenton tells her. “It’s always in the back of my mind whether you are ready to come back to the farm.”
He called their first date the “best night of our lives”.

Psyche! We’ve now cut to his time with Rachel.
“In a short amount of time, you’ve become one of the most important people in my life,” he tells her. “Unfortunately, Rach, I’m falling in love with someone else.
Rachel handled it with grace, saying: “You’ve taught me what I want in a relationship”.
“But, I’m OK and you’re OK and everything is OK,” she said.
![](https://www.chattr.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Screenshot-2023-05-22-at-6.14.29-am-1024x568.jpg)
Brenton was visibly gutted while Rachel told the cameras she didn’t regret anything.
“It’s horrible to make someone feel like that. To actually break a girl’s heart. I’ve never been in that position before,” Brenton says through tears.

We’re then back with Sophie.
“I’ve never felt like this with anyone, and we’ve so many memories and I can’t wait to take you back to the farm. You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever met. I’m falling in love with you.”

Farmer Brad’s Decision
Brad is the final Farmer to choose his Lady.
Coming out of the car first is Morgan, who “genuinely came here to find love”.
When sitting down together, he tells her that he “came here to find a wife and to find love and I believe I’ve found that with someone else. I’m really sorry.”
![](https://www.chattr.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Screenshot-2023-05-22-at-6.22.50-am-1024x573.jpg)
Next up is Clare.
After telling her that he’s worried she will miss her family, he then admits that they have the same values in life.
“We’re cut from the same cloth. We love each other. Let’s make it work. Pack your horses, pack your dogs.”

With that, the journey is over.
