They went on reality TV to find love, and funnily enough, former Married At First Sight bride Samantha Harvey and Farmer Wants A Wife star Matt Trewin found just that, except it wasn’t on either show.
Instead, Samantha and Matt found each other in the real world and recently shared a series of photos and videos to their Instagram Stories of them together on a night out.
Samantha has since confirmed her new romance to So Dramatic! on Wednesday and said she and Matt were indeed dating.
It comes after the two both tried and failed to find love on their respective dating shows, and seem to have found success on their own.
Samantha appeared on the eighth season of MAFS, where she was paired up with on-screen husband Cameron Dunne.
The couple didn’t last long on the series after it was revealed Cameron had strayed from his fake marriage with Samantha and found interest with another bride, Coco Stedman.
Since moving on from the show, the mum-of-two found love with her now ex-boyfriend Jesse, with the two going public with their romance earlier this year in April.
It’s not clear when exactly the couple broke things off, but Samantha has well and truly moved on with Matt.
As for the farmer, while he found what he was looking for on FWAW with his chosen lady Tara Hurl, the two went their separate ways shortly after the show wrapped up.
Appearing at the reunion together, Matt and Tara shared the news of their split and explained that they had broken up just a week before the reunion was filmed.
While they tried to make their relationship work after the show, Matt revealed the pair went their separate ways after his father passed away.
“Reality really kicked in and weighed heavy. I’m probably struggling more than I ever realised with my father’s death,” he said during the episode.
While Matt and Samantha are yet to go Instagram official, fans have still expressed their excitement towards their new relationship.
Samantha’s MAFS co-star Booka Nile was among those to comment under the So Dramatic! post that announced their dating status, where she said:
“I am so stoked she finally got her farmer!”
