Farmer Wants a Wife 2023’s David and Emily are one of many couples who met on the show and have gone on to thrive afterwards.

While their relationship went relatively smoothly on FWAW, they faced one big roadblock; whether Emily was ready to move to the farm full-time.

Now, looking back, it’s clear that David and Emily overcame the obstacle, as they’re still going strong.

David and Emily’s time on the Farmer Wants a Wife

Farmer David’s final two picks were Emily and Lorelei, and unlike some of the other couples, it wasn’t blindingly obvious about who he was going to choose.

That was, of course, until he told Lorelei that he was falling in love with Emily.

At the home visits, things seemed to go well for Lorelei, with her brother remarking: “I think this may be the happiest I’ve seen Lorelei with a partner before.” 

However, it wasn’t to be, and David picked Emily.

“Emily you are the most genuine person I know… I know you haven’t had many serious relationships, but starting today this can be you’re first – and hopefully your last,” he told her in the final.

David and Emily’s engagement

David and Emily got engaged in October 2023, and shared the exciting news on Instagram.

“Incredibly proud to announce, this Farmer has found his Wife,” Farmer David wrote in a joint Instagram post.

David headed back to a beautiful property in Mudgee’s Evamor Valley, which is one of the FWAW locations where he and Emily went on a 24-hour solo date together.

“There was a moment at Evamor, when we were having a glass of wine as the sun was setting and I just knew this was something special. So, it was really important to me that when I asked Em to marry me, it had to be at Evamor Valley – the spot is just such a special part of our journey,” He told Channel Seven.

Farmer Wants a Wife 2024 premieres at 7.00pm on Sunday, 14 April on Channel 7 and 7plus.
