Are the farmers still in happy relationships with their on-screen sweethearts?
Farmer Wants a Wife is in it's 13th season following the love lives of rural Australians hoping to meet their match.
As the cast and crew gathered for the reunion, Farmers Brad, Brenton, Andrew, Matt and David waited on the barn couch to reveal their relationship status and send Australia swooning or sobbing.
Farmer Brad and Clare
First Farmer Brad revealed Clare hasn't joined him long-term on the farm.
"It's challenging," Farmer Brad said.
"I think Clare would move tomorrow but I'm a bit slower and I wanna make sure we're feeling very strong about each other," he said.
But Farmer Brad didn't plan to move too slowly.
He said "if she's not annoying me too much, I might go ring shopping."
Farmer Brenton and Sophie
Farmer Brenton shocked the audience by telling Samantha Armytage that the honeymoon period was over and his relationship with Sophie now was "sort of different".
"It was difficult once this experience was finished and it's just Soph and I in the house together," he said.
But the pair said they are still going strong and planning a bathroom renovation.
Farmer Matt and Olivia
The sunny pair said their relationship was strong and they're enjoying time together on 23 year-old Matt's sheep and cattle farm.
Samantha Armytage dropped a bombshell question at the moment: "A little bird told me Olivia, did Matt give you some jewellery?"
He did, and before you jump to conclusions, it was a necklace with a sunflower pendant.
Farmer David and Emily
Rounding out Farmer Wants a Wife's reunion episode was the confirmation all five couples were still in love and pursuing a life together.
This includes Farmer David and his new apple-picking partner Emily.
"We're pinching ourselves a fair bit because you reserve expectations of what happens on the other side of it, we're so happy in our relationship at the moment," Farmer David told ACM on May 19.
Once filming stopped the pair had a "crazy five months" picking blackberries and apples.
"It's nice for her to see a big part of my life," he said.
The couple said they'd love to visit wineries and pick pink lady apples from the orchard while they walk their dogs.
