Farmer Wants A Wife 2025 Clarette Farmer Thomas Claire Text

The drama around Farmer Wants A Wife 2025’s texting scandal between Farmer Thomas Freeth and Claire Hampson was super spicy this year, after Thomas revealed Claire had slid into his DMs after the show had finished… even though he was loved-up with Clarette Goodhead. Yikes.

While it was a big talking point of the Farmer Wants A Wife reunion, Thomas clarified that he never replied to any of Claire’s messages. “I blocked Claire and she continued to message me on other social media platforms and I never replied to any of them,” he told Chattr in June.

Claire tells Chattr it’s true she tried to get in touch with Thomas, but there was a cheeky reason. According to the Farmer Wants A Wife contestant, there were a few beers involved before she sent her messages.

“I messaged him because I caught up with another girl from the farm and she dared me to message him. I’m not going to back out of a dare after a couple of beers,” she reveals.

“[It was] simply a dare,” she adds, saying she didn’t still have lingering feelings for him at the time. 

The brunette has no resentment towards Clarette and Thomas, and is glad the pair are still in a relationship all these months after the show finished. “I think they look cute together and wish them all the love and happiness,” Claire says. “They both went on the show to find love and it looks like they have found that. I am happy for them.”

Will Farmer Thomas and Clarette be getting engaged soon?

At the end of June, Farmer Thomas referred to Clarette as his “future wife” on his Instagram story. How adorable!

Chelsea Jury also hinted the pair could be getting hitched soon, saying a proposal is on the cards. “I definitely think a proposal could happen in the near future, but I think they are just happy living their lives for now,” she told Chattr. “They are the most beautiful couple, and I’m so happy they ended up together.”

Now that all the drama has subsided, it will be interesting to see how Clarette and Thomas adjust to regular life on the farm. Maybe they’ll have a televised wedding on Farmer Wants A Wife 2026 — we’ll just have to wait and see.

You can watch Farmer Wants A Wife on Channel 7 and 7Plus.
