Farm life changes you in ways you never expect! When city girl Claire met Farmer John on “Farmer Wants a Wife,” nobody could predict how their different backgrounds would blend.
Their story proves that love conquers all, even dietary preferences!
The Secret’s Out
“I grew up vegetarian and he goes hunting,” Claire laughed during their PEOPLE interview.
John couldn’t help but spill the beans: “Claire’s not a vegetarian anymore.” Her shocked response? “Anymore—my mom’s going to watch this!”
The couple’s playful banter shows how comfortable they’ve become with each other.
Nashville Changed Everything
Claire’s veggie lifestyle first wobbled during her Nashville days.
“It was just a little more difficult there because people love their hot chicken,” she admitted with a grin.
The temptation proved too strong, though she jokingly threatens to return to her roots once her mom discovers her secret.
Celebrating Differences
Despite their contrasting backgrounds, understanding each other has been surprisingly easy.
“We did a good job being true to ourselves on the show,” Claire explains.
They haven’t changed who they are fundamentally, instead choosing to embrace their unique perspectives and learn from one another.
Communication is Key
John considers their communication skills the relationship’s strongest asset. “That’s what’s kept us going so strong,” he reflects.
Their ability to have “normal, cool-headed conversations” has helped them navigate potential conflicts that might derail other couples facing similar differences.
Building Trust Through Vulnerability
Claire remembers how communication built their foundation from day one.
The show forced them to “put ourselves out there” and “ask uncomfortable questions.”
She appreciates how John kept things “light-hearted” when tensions rose, creating a safe space where their bond could flourish.
No Rush to the Altar
Don’t expect wedding bells just yet! After meeting in such unusual circumstances, they’re taking things slow.
“We wanted to take this time after the show without any pressure whatsoever,” John explains.
They’re enjoying the journey day by day, believing that forced timelines would only create unnecessary stress.
