For Andrew Coleman and Claire Saunders, of Farmer Wants a Wife fame, things on the farm have not been so easy. A couple of weeks ago fans were left stunned when Coleman shared a heart-wrenching incident involving his equestrian partner. While out enjoying horse riding with friends, 37-year-old Claire Saunders endured a significant injury to her leg, leading to an urgent airlift to a nearby hospital. The unexpected development took center stage during the reunion aired a couple of days ago, as Claire courageously entered the scene, supported by crutches and sporting a bandage around her leg.

Just weeks after her being airlifted to the hospital following a horse-riding accident, Saunders has now shared yet another horse-related scare. Looks like, during a muster on Andrew’s farm, she narrowly escaped another potentially dangerous situation.

According to an exclusive interview with Australia’s Who magazine, Claire Saunders, a contestant on Farmer Wants a Wife, shed light on her journey and the early decision made by Farmer Andrew. In a surprising revelation, Claire disclosed that Andrew had chosen her well before the final week of the series. In fact, in the second-to-last week, Andrew made the bold move of sending the remaining two ladies home to fully commit to his connection with Claire.

Claire attributed the inspiration to apply for the show to her mother and sister, who have been avid viewers since the show’s inception. She explained, “My mum has watched the show, I think since the very first season, and it’s one of her favorite shows… she just loves the love story and the types of people that come from the land.” The familiarity of Andrew’s personality traits with those of Claire’s farmer grandfather resonated deeply with her family, prompting them to encourage her to take a chance on love by applying for the show. With Andrew’s profile catching their attention, it became apparent to Claire that her journey on Farmer Wants a Wife was destined to lead her to a genuine connection.
