It was a bumpy road to happiness, but one that was ultimately paved with love for Farmer Corey and his final pick, Keeley, on season 15 of Farmer Wants a Wife Australia.
From the very start, the 22-year-old optometrist was a front-runner from his affections, winning the 24-year-old over with her down-to-earth and easy-going nature.
While the lovebirds did have their fair share of hardships as they worked to deepen their romantic connection, it was all worthwhile for the duo, who exited the show having found that special someone to spend the rest of their lives with.
Are Farmer Corey and Keeley from Farmer Wants a Wife still together?
In the reunion episode that aired on June 23rd, Corey confirmed that he and Keeley were still very much together, but sadly still in a long-distance relationship.
While they described the separation as “incredibly hard,” the pair confirmed that they were hopeful they would soon be able to live together on Corey’s farm in Bilolea.
“At this point in time I can’t foresee getting a job locally as an optometrist at least. If I want to move earlier, I think I’ll have to sacrifice my career. I just don’t know if I’m ready to do that just yet,” an emotional Keeley confessed.
“The next few months will probably continue being long-distance. I know it’s not what Corey wanted, but it’s the compromise that he is having to make picking me,” she added, with Corey telling host Natalie Gruzlewski that the wait was well worth it.
At Corey’s final decision, he revealed that he was well and truly “in love” with Keeley.
“To me, [being in a relationship with you] is going to be a risk; however, it’s a risk that will be worth it,” an emotional Farmer Corey told Keeley as he revealed he wanted to be with her, and not Chloe.
“I feel as though I can be my true, authentic self around you, Keeley. It makes me very happy to say, but I feel like I’m falling in love with you. Will you make me the happiest man and join me on this next exciting chapter of life?
A thrilled Keeley then responded with a quick “yes”, telling her new beau that it was exciting to hear that he returned her feelings.
“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t in love. It’s a feeling that you get with someone that you can’t describe, and everything feels so right, you feel so warm and safe and happy, and I feel like I’ve got that with Keeley,” he happily shared on camera shortly after.
“Hopefully, in the next two or three years, I’ll pop the question and we’ll be married by that point in time. In five years down the track, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t imagining having a couple of kids running around. It’s the dream.”
“I’m pretty confident saying I think I’ve found my wife.”
