Farmer Wants A Wife Australia Launches 16th Season Featuring New Farmer Jack's Unprecedented Casting Twist

Channel Seven is preparing for the 16th season of Farmer Wants A Wife with applications open, potentially featuring more female farmers for the 2026 season. Meanwhile, the 2025 season introduced a new farmer, 26-year-old Tasmanian dairy farmer Jack, who joined mid-season after two previous farmers exited early. Jack made headlines by breaking the show's tradition and choosing only four women to continue with him, instead of the usual five, a move that surprised the host and producers but was praised by viewers for being straightforward and considerate. Jack is seeking a down-to-earth, family-oriented partner and has already invited four women, including a personal assistant, a veterinarian, a hospitality manager, and a bricklayer, with whom he is beginning to form connections. His approach and romantic plans, including hopes for engagement and starting a family, have resonated positively with the audience. The show continues to air on Channel Seven and 7plus, maintaining its popularity in Australia.
