Claire Saunders on Farmer Wants a Wife

FWAW's Claire Saunders has listed her wedding dress for sale on Facebook

Farmer Wants a Wife’s Claire Saunders has taken a savage dig at her ex-fiance Andrew Coleman while listing her wedding dress for sale on Facebook.

In Early July, the 2023 Farmer Wants a Wife (FWAW) contestant announced that her wedding to Farmer Andrew was cancelled.

“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.

Both 2023 reality stars also deleted their engagement posts from their Instagram grids.

However, there was still a glimmer of hope for the couple as Andrew still has a yellow heart emoji next to Claire’s name in his Instagram bio.

Why did Farmer Andrew and Claire cancel their wedding?

While neither party has publicly revealed exactly why they called their wedding off, a former Farmer Wants a Wife 2023 contestant has spilled the tea.

She told Yahoo! Lifestyle Australia that Andrew and Claire are still together but things are dicey.

“Last I heard, they’re technically still together but taking time apart and having a break,” the unnamed co-star said. She added that the choice to cancel was “led by Andrew” and said that Claire was “pretty upset”.

Claire and Andrew’s nuptials appear to be well and truly cancelled, with the marketing manager taking to Facebook to sell her wedding dress.

“Arya Wedding Dress by Essense size 10 Brand New with Tags (never worn) Comes with sleeves that you can add on if you’d like to. Price is firm, as the retail price is $3100 Pick up Narromine, Dubbo or Launceston,” she wrote in the post.

Claire posted her wedding dress in multiple groups on Facebook. When a user commented on the post and said that they hoped Claire “was ok”, she took an apparent dig at Andrew.

“I’m okay, I’d rather be where I am now instead of being married to a selfish F wit!!” she responded, as per Yahoo Lifestyle.

Claire and Andrew’s engagement

Andrew popped the question to Claire in March 2024.

At the time, the pair shared the exciting engagement news on Instagram by posting a boomerang video of a pair of champagne flutes, their horses and an emerald ring adorning Claire’s finger.

“I said YES to the love of my life 💍❤️,” Claire captioned the now-deleted video.

“So absolutely grateful that I wake up to this life everyday. You are my best friend @farmerandrewau and my safe place, ILYSM Xx #engaged #ourbestlife.”

Claire and Andrew’s Farmer Wants a Wife journey

Claire and Andrew met on FWAW but their story didn’t follow the typical script. Andrew almost immediately recognised Claire as the one for him and he decided to let the other contestants go before the finale.

“There was a note on my bed when I arrived at the farm. It read, ‘Meet me outside, we need to chat.’ I was convinced I was about to be sent home, so it came as a pleasant surprise.”

“I got to the farm and there was a letter on the bed, and it said, ‘Meet me out the front, we need to talk.’ I thought I was going home, so I didn’t expect that, it was nice,” FWAW‘s Claire told Woman’s Day at the time.

After Andrew confessed his love to Claire, the couple left the show together and moved to his farm shortly after.
