Which 'Farmer Wants a Wife' Couples Are Still Together?
'Farmer Wants a Wife' Season 2
FOX has wrapped a second season of Farmer Wants a Wife, begging the question: Which couples from the show are still together?
Host Jennifer Nettles, who's been with the reality dating series since FOX rebooted it in 2023, dished about her hope for matchmaking to Parade, saying, “There are so many of these shows that are out there, dating shows, but I am not a fan of those. I feel like they are over dramatized for people who want 15 seconds of fame to become Instagram influencers, which is fun, but it definitely is escapism. This show is not escapism. This show is relatable because it’s authentic. When it first came across my desk I was like, ‘A dating show? No thanks.’ Then they came back and shared with me the successes of their shows. That got my attention.”
So…how did the first two seasons of the rebooted series fare when it came to participants finding lasting love? See where the couples from Farmer Wants a Wife Seasons 1 and 2 are now.

Which Couples From Farmer Wants a Wife Season 2 Are Still Together?
The Season 2 reunion aired on May 16, 2024, revealing the status of the three couples (and still-single dad Ty). Here's what we learned.
Nathan & Taylor
The cattle-and-orange farmer from Florida landed his dream girl in Taylor—and, yes, the two are still together!
The couple revealed that after the events of the finale, Nathan asked Taylor to spend the holidays with his family, and they had a grand-old time (video-proof included). Taylor hasn't moved to Florida from her hometown of Dallas, TX, just yet, but said she's planning to relocate to the farm within the next year.
“I’ve always prayed for a godly man that was going to be my best friend," she said. "I’ve got somebody that blesses every meal I eat, opens every car door, and asks for the dance every time a slow song comes on. That’s all I can ask for.”
Meantime, Nathan raved that she loves him for him.
Could the farmer have found a wife? “Maybe in the future," he said. "I love Taylor very much.”
Brandon & Grace
Brandon and Grace are no longer together. Although the two seemed to be on good terms at the reunion (and they had an adorable behind-the-scenes video of their time together in Nowhere, Colorado, too), their relationship did not last.
First Grace stayed in CO. Toured the valley, couple of the local dive bars, met friends, spent time together.
Brandon explained that they had a strong friendship connection, but it “did not really grow into the romantic connection that I was looking for.”
Grace, who choked up a bit, admitted that it was hard for her to hear, but that she was glad they gave it their all. "That’s all we can ask for."
Sydney & Mitchell
Nobody ever doubt Sydney. She landed Mitchell and they're still together. When asked by Jennifer Nettles if love was still "blooming" between the two of them, the couple confirmed that it was.
"She’s my girl," Mitchell said, pulling Sydney closer.
“I'm thankful to have her by my side and I hope it continues to be that way.”
When asked if the farmer had indeed found a wife, Mitchell answered, "I’d love to think so."
Not addressed was whether the couple has finally gone hunting together, as they said on more than one occasion that they would. But we all know the answer: Somewhere in Mitchell's Tennessee ranch is a new deer head mounted by Sydney.
Ty
Ty showed up to support his "gut" decision to forego a relationship with both Megan and Melody, and the ladies showed up to remind him of what he was missing. Can't rope 'em all.

Ryan Black & Haley Ramirez
This couple never even made it to the first season finale. Horse trainer and breeder Ryan Black shocked audiences when he had a change of heart after sending recruiter Haley Ramirez home for being “too emotional.” In the finale, he traveled to New York in an attempt to win her back and was heartened when she agreed to return to the farm. However, he left the show single when she revealed she ultimately wasn’t ready to be in a relationship with her former flame.

Allen Foster & Khelsi Stone
The May 17, 2023 finale of Farmer Wants a Wife saw Tennessean cattle rancher Allen Foster choosing Khelsi Stone, a teacher from Georgia, over the runner-up, California-based horse trainer Rebecca Rosell. However, it would appear that all was not calm on the farm. Two days after the finale aired, Foster and Stone revealed that their romance was already over.
Foster took to Instagram to confirm the breakup, writing, “What an incredible journey and opportunity this has been! I came into this with an open mind and open heart! Farmer Wants a Wife didn’t end how I’d hope as far as a relationship, however, I have gained friendships and had opportunities that will last a lifetime! I truly am a blessed man to have been apart of this journey! Thank you all for the kindness and support! #farmerwantsawife”
Stone wasn’t quite so positive with her social media commentary surrounding the relationship, dishing in the comments of a post, “Everything speaks volume[s] now and I’m glad I no longer have to pretend I’m okay.”
She also confirmed the breakup while throwing shade on her ex’s post, writing, “No ma’am we are not [together]. I was trying to be respectful of the time we did share and tell our story a little later.”

Landon Heaton & Ashley Larea
Cattle rancher and farmer from Oklahoma Landon Heaton faced quite the dilemma when he was forced to choose between two Ashleys, Larea and Rader. In the end, Larea, the executive coordinator from Dallas, won out, but much like with Foster and Stone, the romance was short-lived.
Larea took to Instagram and, in a lengthy note, confirmed their breakup. It read in part, “At the finale in December, we were completely changed and hopeful in our future ahead. After the show stopped filming, the pressure of things beyond my control took a toll and ultimately we decided to go our separate ways in January.”
In a lengthy post of his own, Heaton went into a little more detail about what led to their parting of ways, writing in part, “What I found was an amazing raw connection with a fantastic person. Following the final days of filming, due to unforeseen circumstances, I needed to be home with my family, and then life got busy. Ashley and I made the decision to go separate ways in January of 2023, in an effort to adjust back to ‘normal life.’”
Hunter Grayson & Meghan Baker
Cattle and horse rancher Hunter Grayson had a strong connection with Meghan Baker from the start. However, when the Midland, Texas event coordinator left the show unexpectedly due to the sudden death of her grandfather, it seemed like their romance may not get the chance to fully bloom. But the tragic event actually made Baker more sure about her feelings for Grayson.
She explained, “We had a great one-on-one date with his family. I loved his family. And that connection really started to grow for me. And then I got the call the next morning [that my grandfather had died] and I told Hunter and he dropped absolutely everything to be there for me. And that showed for me, even through the hard times, he’s going to be there.”
When the opportunity arose for Baker to return to the show for the finale, she jumped at the chance. "I got a call asking if I wanted to come back, and I couldn’t turn it down. I had to go back and see if Hunter still felt the same way that I felt about him when I left.”
While it appeared Grayson did feel the same way and the two ended the series as a couple, sadly, the romance did not stand the test of time. By the end of June, the two were no more.
Baker took Facebook to reveal the fan-favorite couple had split with a post reading, “I’ve never in my life had to make a break up post before so bear with me…. Break ups are hard enough without having to post about them but I guess this is what I get for signing up for this wild adventure. God only knows who he has in store for my life. I know that He put me on #farmerwantsawife for a reason. Thank you all for following along on ‘our’ journey. Please remember we are both human and sometimes things just don’t work out, but we wish each other the best!”
