Lovebirds Farmer Andrew and Claire Saunders, who met on Farmer Wants A Wife Australia 2023, have unfortunately cancelled their wedding.
The couple met during the thirteenth season of FWAW, with Farmer Andrew confessing his love early in the season to Claire and they exited together hand-in-hand.
In early July, the bride-to-be took to Instagram to reveal she had chosen her wedding dress. But mere days later, Claire announced the wedding was cancelled in a cryptic Instagram story.
“My dogs and I have headed north to Darwin to work for the dry season,” she began.
“Andrew and I have had to cancel our wedding to due to reasons out of our control, but we are both okay. 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 concluded.
Later in July, she shared a post to Facebook announcing her intent to sell the wedding dress.
“Selling my beautiful dress,” she wrote. “It actually looks better in real life. Comes with or without sleeves. Pick up Narromine, Dubbo or Launceston.”
It appears a photo of the dress was shared in the post, however, Claire’s settings only allows a particular group of people to see it.
Many fans have been left wondering if the pair are still in fact together, an anonymous co-star from the FWAW 2023 season has now addressed such speculation.
“Last I heard, they’re technically still together but taking time apart and having a break,” the co-star told Yahoo Lifestyle, before revealing the decision to cancel the wedding was “led by Andrew.”
After FWAW, Claire relocated from Tasmania to Narromine farm near Dubbo to live with Andrew. At the time, Andrew admitted to Woman’s Day everything was “falling into place nicely.”.
“We’ve got a great life here,” she added.
Andrew and Claire’s engagement was announced on March 17, 2024, just four months after celebrating their first anniversary.
“𝟷𝟽~𝟶𝟹~𝟸𝟺 🤍” the pair captioned the Instagram post.
However, the announcement post has since been deleted from Claire’s Instagram page.
