A Farmer Wants A Wife producer has spilled behind-the-scenes secrets about Farmer Andrew and Jess Nathan, who recently got engaged.

Tim Thatcher, who worked on the show for Andrew and Jess' season, took to Instagram after the pair shared their exciting news.

"Three years ago I had the honour of working on Farmer Wants a Wife season 11," he wrote. "After filming Farmer Andrew’s backstory I was then tasked with casting his 'ladies'."
