Reality tv is bonkers enough without cross-over love triangles.
Handsome sheep farmer, Scott Mitchell, was being inundated with love letters, phone calls and Facebook friend requests after he was publicly ‘dropped’ from the latest series of Farmer Wants a Wife before it had even gone on air.
Scott, 36, was featured in a promo video for the upcoming season, but was replaced by Lachlan McAleer and no longer features in the chosen six contestants that will be the focus of the show.
In a unique love-triangle scenario, one of the many women to contact Mitchell is Clare Tamas, whose ‘ex-husband’ Lachlan McAleer (from Married at First Sight), was the very man to take Mitchell’s spot on the popular dating show.
ARE YOU KEEPING UP?
Both Tamas and McAleer appeared on hit-show Married at First Sight where viewers watched their dysfunctional marriage unfold on national television before they decided to call it quits shortly after the program finished airing.
However, dropped Farmer Wants a Wife contestant Mitchell is no longer in the midst of a love drought, with hundreds of women throwing themselves at him since his public dismissal.
Tamas claims that she isn’t romantically interested in Mitchell but instead was reaching out because she was “really disappointed for him that he’s not on the show.” Sure. Right. We’ve all used that excuse.
