On social media, Allen Foster reflected on his journey, expressing, "What an incredible journey and opportunity this has been! I came into this with an open mind and open heart." He acknowledged that 'Farmer Wants a Wife' didn't end with the desired relationship outcome but emphasized the friendships and lasting opportunities gained.

Hunter Grayson and Megan Baker ended up together in the season finale of 'Farmer Wants a Wife'. Hunter Grayson chose Megan Baker over Sydney Lynn Groom. Megan Baker left the show midway after her grandfather's death but returned after a few days.
However, they are no longer together. In a post by Hunter Grayson in June 2023, he confirmed their break up. He wrote, "It’s unfortunate to say that Meghan and I have gone separate ways. We gave it our best shot, but it proved so much more than we thought. She wants to be in Tennessee, and I can’t sell my farm to leave. I wish her all the best, and a life full of success. Our story has no end, she will always be a dear friend. I’m so thankful for our journey, I’ll be grateful all my life, But we can’t love for likes, ‘Cause this farmer wants a wife." Hunter ended the relationship because Megan wanted to settle in Tennessee, and he couldn't leave his farm.
Ryan Black and Haley Ramirez
In the season finale of 'Farmer Wants a Wife' Season 1, Ryan Black won the heart of Haley Ramirez. He had sent Hailey Ramirez home mid-season but convinced her to return to the farm.

On social media, he reflected on the journey, stating, "The journey was a pretty cool deal. Learning about myself and others." He continued, "I couldn't be more thankful for the experience itself! I finished this reality TV love journey as a single man. Accepting rejection has always been a better trait of mine!". Haley Ramirez rejected Ryan Black in the finale as she did share the same feelings for him.
Haley Ramirez wrote on Instagram, "he’s still single. Still unsure if this all happened but I’m grateful it did. Although things didn’t work out with Ryan and I, I wouldn’t have wanted to have this experience with anyone else. Every single person from the other girls to the crew and producers are all gems and I’m so happy to have met you all I’m excited for whatever is next for me. The cowgirl era has ended. I hope I made Paris and Nicole proud. All I’ve got to say for the girlies is this. Being emotional is OK. Never accept less from anyone. You are whole on your own. Be the main character of your own life. “We didn’t come here to be background characters ok”.

She also expressed meeting amazing people in the cast.
Ashley mentioned that her relationship with Landor was a 'slow burn' as they both were 'cynical, guarded and probably a bit pessimistic for love as a whole'.

Despite meeting on the season finale and thinking they would click, they didn't. Nevertheless, they remain friends.
