This twenty two year 0:00:16.200 --> 0:00:19.079 old third generation cattle and crop farmer has had his 0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:22.279 own contracting business, working on other farms since he was 0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:25.479 a teenager. He also runs the farm in partnership with 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:28.760 his dad. Tom has a practical approach to life and 0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:31.960 a seriousness that is tempered by a genuine ability to 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:36.240 laugh at himself. He loves traveling, enjoys country music festivals 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:39.280 and horse shows, and for Tom, falling in love is 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:41.680 one of the most important things in life and is 0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:44.960 very serious about finding the one that approaches it all 0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:48.280 with good humor. We will unpack Farmer Dean's decision to 0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:51.040 leave the show early. We talk about missing out on 0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:54.240 meeting potential latecomers and if he felt that the remaining 0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.440 girls had pushed him into making a decision quicker than 0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:00.960 he had planned. We will get some interest insights into 0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:03.800 the pressures of his farm life and how the recent 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:07.720 droughts had affected his mentality. During production, I'm also going 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.280 to find out how and what his dating history had 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:12.280 been like in the past, and if he let his 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:14.679 previous partners know that he was going to be on 0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:18.840 national television.

How have you been like? 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:27.240 This must be so exciting to be a part of 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:27.880 a show like this. 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.600 Yeah, it's pretty wild, pretty bit of an eye open 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:31.280 and that's for sure. 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.080 While all the other farmers are starting out and they're 0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.640 starting to build their relationships, it kind of feels like 0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:39.160 you've already settled up your tab at the bar. Did 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:41.039 it shock you to that you found a connection so 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:42.520 fast with one of the girls? 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.520 Yeah, I guess so like I have probably won that 0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:47.080 Paul for one pretty quickly. I guess it's better than 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.000 orn for all of them, your four for one more 0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:52.640 than the others. It's just the I guess, it's just 0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:54.360 the way of It's just feelings, I guess. 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:56.480 I mean, I could see from the very first time 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:58.200 he saw tea again. I was like, Oh, I can 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:01.840 see some connection there. There was definitely some sparks. You 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:03.880 mentioned this in the show a couple of times about 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.320 being maybe a soul mate. Do you think Tigan and 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.280 you do have some soulmate traits that are going on here? 0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:11.920 Yeah, that's yeah, we probably do. Yeah, that's for sure, 0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:14.040 Like we we probably have a lot in common. I 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:15.240 guess you could say that's for sure. 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.680 Why didn't you pick her to be the first to 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:20.400 go back to the farm because you did pick someone else, 0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:23.680 and I was curious about what that decision making process 0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:25.720 was like for you in that first episode. 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:28.760 Well, I guess I sort of. Tegan and I probably 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:30.440 hit it off pretty well on the speed date, and 0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:32.639 I just thought, maybe it's just best to try and 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:33.560 get to know someone else. 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:35.880 The show's kind of odd, isn't it, Because it's not 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:37.040 how things happen. 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:37.400 In real life. 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.200 There's no way that you would walk into a b 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:42.639 ands and go on six dates, do you know what 0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:45.400 I mean? Like it's an unusual situation for anyone to 0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:45.680 be in. 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.320 Oh, one hundred percent, it's so wild, Like you know, 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:50.160 like the speed dates and everything like that. You know, 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:51.960 you get to know, eight women in a day, Like, 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:55.000 that's definitely not something I've done before, but you know, like, yeah, 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:56.800 it's ridiculous, crazily Well. 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:58.360 I guess before we get into more of this, I 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.960 was curious to know about how you're experience was with 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:03.919 filming this show. Was this anything like you expected? 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.639 I didn't really know what to expect, and I when 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:08.560 I was chosen to be one of the one of 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:12.080 the farmers, I was literally going in pretty pretty blind. 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:13.440 I guess you could say, like, I guess all the 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:15.400 farmers were like, it's just I guess I didn't know 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:16.040 what to expect. 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.679 What was your dating history like before doing this show? 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.640 Had you been in many relationships before signing up for 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:22.600 Farmer Wants a Wife? 0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:25.880 I sort of. I've only been in probably two. Yeah, 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:29.119 probably before this show. I probably only one real serious relationship. 0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:31.000 And did you speak to her before doing the show? 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.720 Where you did you try and clear that out with 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.400 her just to make sure that she wasn't you know, 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:36.440 just walking through the house one day and see on 0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:39.120 one of the commercials. What sort of communication did you 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.160 have with her before taking part of the show. 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.040 Nothing? Really, We probably we sort of when we went 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.360 separate ways were just we sort of went separate ways 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.000 and we both didn't really stay in contact. 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.000 She'll be getting a surprise, She'll be driving along a 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.800 freeway and see your big mug on a banner on 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:55.880 a billboard somewhere. 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:57.800 Yeah, that's right, bloody hell. 0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:58.480 You missed out. 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:00.640 Yeah, that's right. 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:03.240 Did you worry about any you know, like if I 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:04.840 was to do a show like this, I'd worry about, 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:06.640 you know, if there's any any bodies that need to 0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.920 be buried, any skeletons that are in the closet. Do 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:11.280 producers ask you about any of that kind of stuff? 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.120 Do they have conversations about anything in your past that 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:17.360 you might be worried about surfacing during you know, being 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:17.880 on the show. 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:20.080 Yes and no, Like they ask you about your past, 0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:22.760 and yeah, they go through you a fair bit, which 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.320 is bloody fantastic, Like you got to you got to 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:26.640 do a fair bit to get on the show. But 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:29.480 I was very honest and yeah, like I me and 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.320 my past relationship don't really have any bad blood. Like 0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:34.520 obviously we don't talk every day and we don't ring 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.880 each other every every month or any but we we 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:39.479 probably ended on pretty good terms. I guess you'd say, well, 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:40.000 I guess. 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:42.320 It was interesting fatigue, and because there was this moment 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:45.240 where you guys were all together in a social situation 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.880 for the first time and you got this message from 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.640 someone else saying that she may have a boyfriend on 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.880 the outside. How did you deal with getting that text message? 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:55.680 Yeah, I was I don't know. I guess it was 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:57.159 a bit of a bit of a shock, but yeah, 0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.200 I don't know. I don't really know what to think 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:01.120 of it. Really. I was love too. I love the 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.880 proteo phased about it. To be completely honest. 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:04.839 Who sent you the message? 0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.200 Was it the guy that was claiming that he was 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.159 an ex boyfriend or was it one of the other 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:10.360 girls from the other farms? 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:11.880 How did you get that message? 0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:14.440 I seriously don't know it was It comes through on 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:18.320 a on a fake account, and yeah, I don't really 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:19.919 know what to expect, but yeah, it comes through on 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.120 a fake account and had zero followers, So I don't 0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:24.479 really know what happened. It was a little bit bit fishy. 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:27.279 It sounds to me like someone's created a fake account 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.320 and then tried to create a fake rumor. 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.080 I guess that's kind of what's happened. 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.200 The other thing I was going to say was, you know, 0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:36.800 Tiff was away talking to the girls from Tom's farm, 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.960 and she was talking to Taylor. She came over with 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.719 this message and said to you guys, what's the deal? 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:44.520 What's going on? Do you think it was the right 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.919 way for Tiff to come and approach that situation with 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:50.920 everyone there, or do you think she could have tried 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.920 to bring you aside and talk to you about that message? 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:58.240 Well, I guess she has every right to ask a question, definitely, 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.240 like she was in the in the love game, so 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.520 obviously she was fighting for me too. If it makes 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.599 them yeah, I can, I can totally. I can totally 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:09.080 agree her for that, But I probably think maybe she 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.080 could have went about it in a different way, like 0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:13.680 it did sort of upset Teager out their bit. 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.200 Oh she stormed off, Yeah, that's right, And then did 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.919 she was she very clear about the fact that she 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:21.080 didn't have a boyfriend on the outside, But did you 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.320 ask for her to try and prove that anyway? Like 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:25.960 what sort of conversations did you have that helps you 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:27.960 guys get back to a better place. 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:31.120 I've seen her pro seeing Teague and how upset she 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.920 was sort of gave me a fair indication like if 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.720 it was if it was true, I think it would 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.440 have come through on a on a normal account, if 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.880 that makes sense, absolutely, seeing her how upset she was, Yeah, 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:43.320 it was. It wasn't very nice. 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:45.919 I kind of feel like in some ways, having a 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.080 bit of drama to unpack between the two of you 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.760 almost brought the two of you together. So whoever tried 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.599 to create this drama kind of backfight in their face. 0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:56.440 Yeah, exactly like it just it probably brought us closer, 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.000 if that makes sense. Like it's a bit it's a 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.839 bit different to say, but brought us closer together. And 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.640 you know, seeing how it said she was and just 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:06.599 made me probably look out for her a bit more. 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:08.279 And I guess it kind of put some clarity on 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.760 the other relationships as well, because it was interesting. Bella 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:13.040 said that you two were from different worlds, and she 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.400 talked about that right from the start. When did you 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.200 figure out that maybe you weren't a match with Bella. 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:20.000 Day one? 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:21.720 When you brought it back to the farm, when she 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:23.239 took it, When did you take off her map? 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.160 It's hard, you got to you gotta can't just say that, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:30.640 you know what I mean? You got to got to 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:31.400 be nice about it. 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.600 I think you answered the question with not answering the questions. 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.720 So yeah, no, I don't know. Yeah, it was probably 0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:39.920 when a few attach things happened on the farm. Like 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:42.360 obviously I said to the girls all the time, I said, 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.520 farming is not easy, you know, like it's a way 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:46.280 of life. It's not it's not just a job. It's 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:49.080 it's a lifestyle. It's not always fun games. It's not 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:51.840 always you know, he's going to speed cows or have funnel, 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:53.640 you know, driver around the farm and look at the view. 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:55.559 You got to get down and dirty and have a crack, 0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:57.040 you know, like you just you got to give an 0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:57.560 inca crack. 0:07:57.800 --> 0:07:59.840 Yeah, she did kind of look a little out of place. 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.120 I was thinking, I don't know if you're I think 0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.080 she looks like she'd have a good time on a 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:06.960 like a montage of being a farmer's wife. But I 0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:09.200 don't know if she'd do very well with the long haul, 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:10.360 you know, with the day to day. 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:12.840 No. I think it's being from a big city and 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:14.640 coming to you know, being from a big city and 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.240 coming to countries not Don't get me wrong, it's not easy, 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:19.880 like it I couldn't. I couldn't move from the country 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:22.240 to the city, if that makes sense. And it's the 0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:24.080 same for her, I guess, you know, like it was 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.000 probably bit of an eye opener for her, you know, 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.400 like she's done it, I guess, and she's like, yeah, okay, 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.160 well yeah, I've done it. Now. 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:32.280 It's a culture shock for a lot of people, and 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:35.880 you know, being remote and changing your lifestyle at that age, 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.200 I mean, it's a big undertaking for anyone. 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:38.480 Then. 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:40.520 I guess it's a hard thing to realize until you're 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:43.400 actually there. And maybe Bella herself got there and realized 0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:44.840 that this isn't for her, you know what I. 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.000 Mean, Yeah, exactly right, And we did talk about that, Dean. 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:49.880 I just was going to say, my favorite thing about 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:51.800 you is that you have no poker face, like no 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:55.600 poker face at all, and the remaining girls seem to 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:59.079 get they were onto you with your whole relationship progressing 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:01.360 with someone else. Is that something that happens to you 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:03.000 and you're you know it happened to you in the 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:06.079 past that people have claimed that you have no poker face. 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.640 Yes, So, like it's it's just it's just so I 0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:11.640 am really, I guess I'm not the biggest thing, I 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.280 don't try and actively someone who I'm not. 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:16.079 Would you have gone along with the whole? Will they 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:19.760 won't they get together? If Tiffany and Bella didn't put 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.840 the pressure on to sort of speed things up. 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.800 Probably like it was, they were both pretty out there. 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.400 I guess you could say like they were both pretty 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:33.080 out there. I didn't. I didn't know if I didn't 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:36.280 know if they could be on the farm. That was 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:38.600 the biggest thing, Like I don't know if I could. 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:41.320 I guess it sort she thought through my head like 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:43.760 I went and when I spokeus to some of my 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.120 very good mates and my very good friends, and I 0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:47.480 just said, what do you think? 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:48.360 And what are they say? 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.840 So? And so then what happened is that because you leave. 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.160 I mean, that was one awkward dinner that you decided 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.439 to leave, and we got to see you driving away. 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:57.760 It had me wondering whether or not you're just were 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:01.320 afraid of conflict, or whether you were going away to 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:03.800 speak to some outside sources to get some advice on 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:04.640 what to do next. 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:08.760 Oh yeah, I guess it was very I was very 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:12.679 stressed out, I tell you the truth. Drama and all 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.200 that sort of stuff is definitely not for Farmer Dean. 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:19.679 I hate drama. That is my pet hate. Obviously, that 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.200 was a fair going through my head at the time. 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:24.319 I was very very stressed out, like things on the 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.600 farm weren't in a very good state, Like we were 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.000 in the worst drought we've ever seen on the farm, 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.240 and you know, having that, and you know you've got 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:34.439 to think of you You still got to think of 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.080 your future, like your livelihood. 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:38.760 Yeah, absolutely, I mean that's that is one of the 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:41.280 other pressures that I don't think people have seen talking 0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.280 about the drought. You know, those sort of factors would 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:47.679 be so overwhelming, especially when you're trying to consider other 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:49.400 people while being on the show. 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:53.959 Yeah, exactly, exactly right. It was bloody, absolutely wild. I 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:54.720 guess you could. 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.560 Say, well, actually, a good question to ask, was it 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:58.560 even possible, because this is something that came up with 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.000 the girls, was it even possible for Tiff and Beller 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.839 to maybe put some more effort in because Teak and 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.120 did sort of say, well are you putting any effort in? 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:08.679 And you know, sort of ask them you already made 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:10.840 up your mind. Was there anything possible for Tiff and 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:11.400 Beller to do? 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.040 At that point, I wouldn't say I had in my 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:15.480 mind made up. By then, I was still in a 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:17.280 pretty big Like at the dinner, I was still in 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.960 a pretty big I was still pretty very confused to 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:21.960 what to do and what to you know, like is 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:23.880 it too early to give it a crack with teagan 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:25.679 an eye? Like is it I need to get try 0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:27.480 and get to know these girls too a bit more 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.840 like when they come out and just want to start drama. 0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:32.240 I was just like, that is not to me, Like, 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.520 you know, it's not who I am. And I'm like, 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.480 it's not who I am, it's you know, if that 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:38.040 makes sense. 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.040 Did you ever speak to those girls again? Was the 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:42.520 last time that you ever saw them on camera? Or 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.720 have you reached out and tried to have a conversation 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:46.760 with you to say what went wrong? Like have you 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:48.400 ever seen those girls again? 0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.000 I haven't seen them again, but I have I have 0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:53.760 flung them a message and said I hope you will okay, 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.240 And I just just you know, just to keep no 0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:58.679 bad blood, if that makes sense. Like I'm I'm a 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:01.679 very loving person. I'm very caring person. I don't hold 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:03.520 any grudges with anyone, and I hope no one holds 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:04.280 any grudges with me. 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:06.840 I enjoyed watching them packing actually and leaving, because I 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:08.640 was really happy for you and Tiagan. At that point, 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:11.400 I was like, those girls could leave, this is totally fine. 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.080 When did you realize that Teagan was the right pick 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:15.600 for you? You didn't pick it to go to the 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.800 farm the first time, but you knew there was a connection. 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.000 Was it the very next time you saw her? 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:20.280 Like? 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:22.720 When did you realize that you guys had a spark 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:24.880 that was probably bigger than anyone else's. 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:27.800 Probably when I felt a really really big spark was 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:29.040 our solo died together. 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.800 It helps when you've got giraffes and ronoceros's and it's 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:32.840 a really pretty setting. 0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:34.720 You know, I could just spend one on one time 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:35.679 together with Sagan. 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:37.800 You didn't want to hang around and wait to see 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:40.520 if there was any intruder ladies. I mean, you're normally 0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:42.880 in Farmer once a wife. You get another two girls 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.720 that turn up. Were you worried about, you know, making 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.280 this decision too early and missing out and seeing these 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:49.000 other two girls? 0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:52.080 Yeah, obviously it was. That was a key point of it. 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.000 I was very stressed out on the far time, Like 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:58.600 obviously we were in the worst worst drought, and I 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:01.280 was just likely how like I was just I was 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.120 I was like, I was very stressed, and I just thought, 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.040 you know, Segan and I had a pretty strong connection 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.040 by the by the end there, and we just yeah, 0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:11.200 I don't know, it would have been I guess it was. 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:13.640 It would have took something pretty good to come into 0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:14.199 that connection. 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:15.880 Do you think that you'll keep up some of those 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:18.160 romantic dates, because the last time that we saw the 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:19.840 two of you, I loved the fact that you were 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.600 in this barn with the candles and everything. It was 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:25.200 very romantic. Moving away from the show where you've probably 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:26.960 got a hand to set up some of those dates, 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:28.520 do you think it's a lot of pressure for you 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.439 to try and live up to creating some of that romance. 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.439 Yeah, I don't know. I'm pretty I'm a pretty romantic 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:35.480 sort of person, I reckon. 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.959 I kept looking at those the you know, the all 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.600 of these candles burning in these barns with a lot 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:45.040 of hay, and I just felt really nervous. It looked 0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:47.000 really pretty because you've got like a John Mayer song 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:49.360 playing in the background, But I was like, is that 0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:50.120 a fire has it. 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:52.120 I'm hoping that they are like lights. 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.160 Yeah, literally, it was. It was crazy. 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.120 Well, I guess the only other question to ask you 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:02.280 at this point is was calling this relationship early? Has 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.520 that put too much pressure on tag In? You know, 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:06.640 she looked pretty excited to find out that the other 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:08.480 girls had been sent home and you were going to 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:11.160 give her the shot. But you know, like any relationship, 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:14.000 sometimes when you declare how you feel too early, sometimes 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:15.760 it can be a lot of pressure. How did she 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:17.880 feel with that? Did she feel like it's a lot 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:19.360 it's too much pressure at this point? 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:21.520 Yeah, obviously it was a lot of pressure we had. Yeah, 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:24.040 it was. It was a fair bit, but yeah, it was. Yeah, 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:27.480 obviously it was. It was pretty we had We had 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:29.000 a lot of fun, that's for sure. Yeah. 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:30.840 Well, I really do hope that things work out. I'm 0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.320 looking forward to a reunion episode to see how things 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.800 have gone, which I think is going to be very exciting. 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:38.640 What is something that I ask everyone who joins this 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.320 podcast is what's something from behind the scenes.
