Spoilers ahead. After several weeks of getting to know one another on and off the farm, tonight was night the farmers on Farmer Wants A Wife decided who they'd pursue a relationship with beyond the reality TV show.
While Paige Marsh and Benjamin Jackson had left the competition, farmers Will Simpson, Ben Scowen and Harry Lloyd each had two women still vying for their hearts. Find out below who won Farmer Wants A Wife 2022.
Who Does Farmer Will Simpson Choose?
Will Simpson enjoyed very different things out of his connections with 26-year-old dental nurse Jess and 25-year-old legal assistant Madi.

"I’ve got Madi, who is really grounded and really stable and secure in what she wants. Then, on the other hand, there’s Jess who I have heaps and heaps of fun with," Simpson said on the show prior to the grand finale.
As a fourth-generation crop farmer from Berriwillock in Victoria, where he lives is very important to Simpson and he'd ideally want his partner to relocate to be with him. Prior to the finale, reality TV podcast, So Dramatic! reported that Jess appeared to have already moved to Berriwillock.
Ultimately, Will did choose Jess to pursue a relationship with on the outside.
"When I look at my future I see you in it. I want you to be in it. I really am falling in love with you," he told her.
Bookies had predicted Jess could win. The odds on betting agency Sportsbet's website earlier in the week appeared to be in Jess' favour at $1.02, while Madi sat at $26.
Who Does Farmer Ben Scowen Choose?
A recent episode was quite a ride when it came to Ben Scowen. There was some trouble in paradise for him and 24-year-old beauty therapist Kiani, who was reeling from the news that Ben kissed Leish on their final day on the farm.
"He was just, like, so adamant that he wasn’t gonna do that, because he felt weird. Yeah, I’m pissed off," she said. "Ben said that he didn’t wanna kiss either of us and Leish has just told me that they did kiss."

On finale night, Farmer Ben chose Leish over Kiani.
"This experience has taught me a lot about love — to be in love. I have an amazing connection with Kiani. But I have the most perfect connection with you. Leish, I've fallen madly in love with you," he told Leish.
When it came to breaking the news to Kiani, Ben explained it was a difficult decision.
"I have to weigh up where I want to be and what I want my future to look like. Ad when I do that, there's one woman I see next to me," Ben said to Kiani. "From the start, I said I'd follow my heart. And my heart's not with you, my heart's with Leish.
Earlier in the week Sportsbet indicated Leish could win with odds sitting at $1.02 for her, while Kiana's were at $11.00. The odds of him leaving the show without a relationship were at $6.00.
Who Does Farmer Harry Lloyd Choose?
Harry Lloyd had quite the decision to make between 27-year-old insurance claims specialist Bronte and 22-year-old psychology student Tess. On the one hand, Bronte was quite open to moving to Kyabram in Victoria to be with the dairy farmer, while Tess had indicated she may not have been as ready.
Ultimately, Farmer Harry chose Tess to pursue a relationship with, telling her, "I do feel like you tick a lot for a life partner."
Earlier in the week Sportsbet had suggested Tess could win as her odds were at $1.02. Meanwhile, Bronte's odds sat at $5.
Hosted by Natalie Gruzlewski and Samantha Armytage, the finale of Farmer Wants A Wife will be followed by a special reunion ep where we hopefully find out who is still together after filming ended.
The Farmer Wants A Wife reunion will air at 7:30pm on Tuesday October 4 on Channel 7 and 7plus.
