One of the success stories of the latest season of Farmer Wants a Wife was Will and Jessica, who found love on the show.
In an interview with the Daily Telegraph, the couple discussed their continuing happiness, revealing that they moved in together shortly after filming finished.
Before filming the show, however, it seems like Will may not have been so loved-up. According to So Dramatic!, the farmer may have cheated on his girlfriend at the time.
A source told the publication that she met Farmer Will in a Fitzroy nightclub in late 2019, with the pair allegedly heading back to her house. “I brought him home, and mid-coitus, he must have gotten the guilts because he told me he had a girlfriend,” the unnamed person claimed.
A further source also alleged that Will had cheated on his then-girlfriend, and it sounds like he messed her about quite a bit before filming.
According to So Dramatic!, he dumped his longtime girlfriend to appear on Farmer Wants a Wife, just after the couple reportedly moved to Queensland together.
“They moved back and broke up, but I’m pretty sure they were on the verge of getting back together. He appeared on FWAW two weeks later,” a source said.

Whatever happened before the show, Will certainly sounds happier post-Farmer Wants a Wife. “Our relationship has been accelerated the whole way,” Jess told the Daily Telegraph following the show. “But I don’t feel like I’ve rushed into anything. Even though it comes across like that. I feel like I’ve known Will forever.”
“We watched most of the show together,” Will said. “It was really weird. Because that was six months ago, and we’ve developed such an amazing relationship since then, on top of what we’d done on the show.”
