Scarlett of ‘Farmer Wants A Wife’ on elimination, bullying and friendship

Scarlett, a 22‑year‑old polo player from Victoria, was the runner‑up on Australia’s reality series Farmer Wants A Wife. She was eliminated in the finale when lead farmer Dylan chose front‑runner Ally. Scarlett later said she had a “dark impression” at the black‑tie dinner that Ally would return and that Dylan’s easy decision confirmed her suspicion, but she chose to stay on the show rather than walk away.

After filming, Scarlett, Ally and Dylan kept a secret WhatsApp group called “The Final Three” to debrief each episode and support one another. Scarlett explained the chat became a safe space as they dealt with harsh online criticism, especially messages calling her “ugly” and “disgusting.” She says she is learning to ignore the bullying, now laughing at nasty remarks, and the three remain close friends.

The contestants credit the group for helping them navigate the scrutiny that comes with reality‑TV exposure.
