The Farmer Wants a Wife journey is well and truly underway, with each farmer tasked to choose one lucky lady to return to their farms 24 hours ahead of the other hopefuls.
Queensland’s Farmer Dean, 25, surprised with his choice to invite 24-year-old Bella — who has made it clear that she enjoys the finer things in life.

Dean said the pair “clicked and it felt right” during their speed date.
Learning the news, an excited Bella joked that she would need to forfeit her Louis Vuitton handbag and gold heels for some proper farm boots.
Dean and Bella made the trip together to his farm in Kandanga, nearly two hours north of her home in Brisbane.
“Pub, post office, shop and that’s basically Kandanga,” the cattle and watermelon farmer told her.
“Blink of an eye and we’re through the town, mate.”
Bella replied: “I’m so excited. (It’s) obviously a very different pace of life from what I’m used to.”
While she did swap her heels for flat sandals, Bella made the trip in a Zimmerman jumpsuit, styled with a Louis Vuitton clutch.
Speaking of the difference between the couple, Bella later told producers in a confessional: “Dean and I come from two very different worlds but we have a similar sense of humour, that’s for sure.
“I love how hilarious, funny and carefree Dean is.”
Arriving at Dean’s property, he yelled, “Honey we’re home,” before stopping the car early to show his date the watermelon patch.
Showcasing the differences between this unlikely pairing, Bella attempted to walk through the dirt in her sandals as she told her farmer that even the flats weren’t cutting it.
“You alright?” Dean asked her before he scooped her up and carried her in his arms.
“This is better,” she smiled.
Bella told producers: “The country life is very different to my life in Brisbane but it’s a change I think I’m ready for.”
Dean made this difference clear later in the episode when he dressed up for their date to the local pub.
Scrubbing up nicely, the farmer put on his “pub shoes” with “no holes”.
“Getting pretty dressed up for Bella tonight I reckon,” he said.
“We’re sort of from two different worlds. She’s a pretty city girl and I’m a bit of a country boy, I guess you could say,” he said in a confessional.
“But she wants to give it a crack.”
Enjoying their pub date, Dean opened up about his hopes for the future.
“You’re an absolute stunner and I’m just a farmer running a few cows,” he told her.
“The day I start a family and get married will be the happiest day of my life.”
Bella then sweetly told Dean that she “absolutely” can see herself living on the Kandanga farm.
Farmer Wants A Wife continues Tuesday 7.30pm on Channel 7 and 7plus.
