It’s the question on everyone’s mind ahead of tonight’s Farmer Wants A Wife reunion, which couples are still together? If any duo had a good chance of going the distance, it was Farmer Andrew Guthrie and Jess Nathan.

Their chemistry was obvious from the moment they first laid eyes on each other, with the 27-year-old contestant labelling her farmer a ‘total babe’ in the premiere.
Over the season, their flirtation transformed into true romance, with the pair declaring their love for one another in the finale.
Though it appeared to viewers that their courtship was filled with dramatic ultimatums and a few awkward exchanges about the other contestants, the pair have insisted the drama was all down to the editing.
But has their ‘drama-free’ romance lasted once the cameras stopped rolling?
Seven months on from filming, the pair have confirmed they are still very much together and as smitten as ever! Shortly after the finale aired, Andrew took to Instagram to declare his love for Jess.
“As hard as this whole experience was, and to relive on screen, I can’t say it was all bad. Because I met the most amazing person I have ever met,” the reality TV star wrote at the time.
“He ended the adorable post: “Over 6 months together and my love and appreciation for you grows every day. I can’t wait to move forward with our journey and not have to hide it away from the world.
“Love you babe,” he sweetly added at the end.
In the weeks since the last episode aired, Jess and Andrew have continued to show off their budding romance on social media – much to the delight of Farmer Wants A Wife fans.
Not only that, they’ve also spoken out very publicly about the way their relationship was edited on the show, dropping several major bombshells. Chief among them, the fact that they made the joint decision to leave halfway through filming – a decision that was shot down.
“Andrew knew he was going to pick me,” Jess revealed in a recent interview. “So we went to the producers and told them we’d fallen in love and wanted to leave, but they said no.”
Andrew adds: “After watching a lot of people might think, ‘Why did I choose her?’ Which isn’t true of life.”
“We had a solid love story and they have spun it the other way.”
In happier news, the 30-year-old farmer from Delegate and his new girlfriend have decided to move in together in the near future.
In an interview with Perth Now, Andrew said they have been doing long-distance in the months since the show wrapped filming, giving them time to prepare for the big move.
“We have just been doing long distance,” he said. “I never expected anyone to drop their life to move to where I was straight away, that’s just ridiculous.”
“We are going unreal, to be honest with you, I couldn’t be happier.”
In the final moments of the reunion host Natalie gave a quick update that the couple had officially exchanged keys and Jess was making the big move!
