The Country Life Ain't for Everyone! Who Went Home on 'Farmer Wants a Wife'? (SPOILERS)

Spoiler alert: This article contains major spoilers for Season 3 of Farmer Wants a Wife.

Fox's popular reality show Farmer Wants a Wife offers a fresh twist on The Bachelor, with a dash of Yellowstone flair. Four self-described farmers are hoping to find love in a big city way. Rather than figuring out what they might be doing wrong, these cowboys cast their nets wider, seeking connection with women living far from their rural worlds.

That's right — city girls are heading to the country in search of a slower life and a sweeter husband on Farmer Wants a Wife. Of course, not all of the contestants are quite ready to make it work with our rugged rodeo chaps.

Here's a look at the contestants who went home on Farmer Wants a Wife (hopefully, the women were able to hail a cab on their way out, not a cow!)

No one is sent home in Episode 9, as each of the four farmers is down to his final two ladies. Instead, it's time for family introductions — the farmers meet the women's families, and the women get to know the farmers' loved ones.

We're getting down to the wire, and the farmers are making some tough decisions as they narrow their search for love to just two women each. Some, like Jay, are clear on what they need — he ends things with Rissa, citing too many differences between them. Thankfully, Rissa understands, and they end on good terms.

As for John, he doesn't have to make the call himself. Juliana, his mom's pick, decides to bow out. She explains that they haven't had enough time to connect, and leaving the farm feels like the right choice for her.

Over on Matt's farm, he decides to send Halleh home, admitting he just isn't feeling the connection. Emotions run high as she tears up, and the two share a heartfelt goodbye.

When it comes to Colton, he confesses he's still torn between his final three women. That uncertainty pushes Bailee — a clear frontrunner all season — to self-eliminate.

She tells Colton she wants "to be wanted" and doesn't feel that with him. Colton respects her honesty, and Bailee later tells the cameras, "I am not what Colton is looking for, and he is not what I need."

Once the group settles in at the campsite, Matt pulls Alex for a chat and admits that he feels "something is just a little bit off." Luckily for him, Alex tells him that she's "feeling the same," and they go their separate ways.

Elsewhere, Colton lets Hope know that he doesn't see a future with her. She completely understands, especially since she's had her own doubts about their relationship.

Later, John and Kaylee also call it quits. She tells John that she's going home, saying, "I just feel like I don't look at you and think like, 'Ah, I love him so much.'" He agrees, suggesting that the spark just isn't there. They share one last hug before saying goodbye.

Farmer Jay brings his mom's pick back to the farm, stirring tension with the OG ladies. Sensing the awkward vibes, he pulls Julia aside to discuss his doubts about her fit on the farm. Julia pushes back, saying he's "lucky" to have her, but admits she's "checked out."

"Jay's a great guy, he's just not for me. He's kind of boring," the California model laughs to the camera, adding she's "so over" farm life before leaving.

Shortly after, T'yana tells Jay she feels like she's been "on the back burner" and questions if she should stay. Feeling unchosen, she also decides to leave.

After weeks of hesitation and nearly walking away from the show more times than she can count, Samantha Riehl finally decides to leave the farm.

During the April 17 episode, she pulls John aside for a chat, telling him he's everything she wants in a man. She recalls the instant spark between them but admits that their shared need for control would make a relationship difficult. John thanks her for her honesty, and the two share a hug before saying goodbye.

Jay continues spending time with both Julia and Viviane-Lee, but by the end of their date, he decides to send Viviane-Lee home. While she clearly enjoys the farm life, Jay doesn't feel a romantic connection. They share a goodbye hug and part ways.

Later, at the barn dance, Rachel pulls Matt for a chat and tells him she's going home. It may seem abrupt, but it ties back to the drama involving Halleh sneaking out of the house early in the morning.

Although both Halleh and Matt vehemently deny meeting up, Rachel doesn't believe them at all. Matt is visibly upset by Rachel's departure, but she tells the cameras she's standing by her decision. Plus, she doesn't think someone she's meant to be with would break her trust so early in the relationship.

Following the nail-biting cliffhanger of Episode 2, the third episode picks up right where we left off. Colton pulls Taylar aside for a chat and decides to send her home. He explains that he's a "realist" and doesn't want to lead her on, adding that he has eyes for someone else. Before leaving, Taylar warns the other women, telling them that Colton only has eyes for one girl, causing them to spiral.

As Episode 3 wraps up, John takes Chloe on a 1-on-1 date. Unfortunately, it doesn't go too well, and John admits to the camera that while Chloe is a nice person, she's "just not quite right for me." In the end, John sends a tearful Chloe home.

Despite having the chance to say goodbye to one of their respective ladies, three of the farmers — John, Jay, and Matt — decide to keep all five women around for another week.

As for Farmer Colton, it seems like he's going to send Taylor home, but the episode ends before we get an answer. So, for now, everyone is sticking around for another week!

In the Season 3 premiere, the four farm-loving bachelors are introduced to a group of women eager to win their hearts. But by the end of the episode, each farmer must narrow their selections down to just five ladies.

Farmer John says goodbye to Lindsey, Taylor, and Abby, while Farmer Colton decides to part ways with Makenzie, Rebecca, and Kassandra.

When it comes to Farmer Jay, he cuts Jackie, Kailee, and Natalie from his list. Last but not least, Farmer Matt sends Jordan, Christine, and Olivia packing.

In case you've lost track of who's still in the "competition," here's a rundown of the women who are still in the game on Farmer Wants a Wife — and the farmer they're hoping to win over. With each farmer now down to just two women, they are closer than ever to finding their perfect match!

• Colton Hendricks: Keeley Goldberg and Zoe Green.
• Jay Woods: Grace Clark and Karina Sabol.
• John Sansone: Claire Dirette and Lily Ayres.
• Matt Warren: Chelsi Davis and Jordyn Belcher.
