A Farmer Wants a Wife producer has spoken out about how it was “pretty clear” Jess Nathan was the one for Farmer Andrew before they had even met.
The producer interviewed the hopeful and cast her on the show, where she met her now-fiancé Farmer Andrew Guthrie in the 2021 season.

The happy couple announced their engagement on Tuesday, confirming that the farmer had indeed found his wife.
“Three years ago I had the honour of working on Farmer Wants a Wife season 11,” producer Tim Thatcher wrote on his Instagram account on Wednesday.
“After filming Farmer Andrew’s backstory I was then tasked with casting his ‘ladies’.”
“After a one-hour Zoom with Jess (and 53 hours with hopefuls) during COVID, it was pretty clear that she was perfect for Andrew.”
Tim shared that he is “so glad” to see that “it has come full circle and this Farmer has found his wife”.
“Congratulations Jess and Farmer Andrew, another success story for Farmer Wants a Wife,” he ended his post.
The post came a day after the couple first shared the news by posting three photographs of the special moment Andrew got down on one knee and proposed.
“Farmer Wants a Wife,” Jess captioned the photo series, a nod to the show on which they met and fell in love.
She later shared a video of her sparkling engagement ring in all its dazzling glory.
“The most precious thing I could ever own – truly blessed,” she captioned the Instagram post.
“Thank you future husband.”
The video contains an image of the ring still in its box, and then glittering in the sun on Jess’s hand.
The engagement news comes after the couple announced they had purchased a beach shack, sharing a photo in front of a “SOLD” sign.
“We bought a beach shack!” they wrote in a joint Instagram post.
“At one of our favourite places in the world, we’ve been working on this for what feels like forever.
“And we’re so excited to open the doors to our little abode for what will soon be an Airbnb for us to share.
“Watch this space!”
The house is in coastal Merimbula, NSW – six hours south of Sydney and just one hour and 40 minutes from their farm in Delegate.
