“I really needed to post this for an explanation.”
Farmer Wants a Wife Australia 2023‘s Claire Saunders has shared an update on her relationship with ex-fiance Andrew Coleman following the concerning claims she recently made about him.
After falling in love on the hit dating show, Claire shocked fans in July by announcing they’d cancelled their upcoming wedding.
She later confirmed to So Dramatic! that they’d parted ways for good, leading her to move to Tasmania.

However, fans soon became concerned for the reality star when she alleged on September 7 that Andrew had travelled from NSW to Tasmania “in secret”.
“[He] followed me around for a few days without my knowledge,” she said, before claiming he’d also stolen her car “in the middle of the night”.
She concluded the lengthy Instagram statement by urging women in “bad relationships” to leave “no matter how much it hurts”.
Now, Claire has seemingly backtracked and assured fans she’s in no danger when it comes to Andrew.
Farmer Wants a Wife‘s Claire Saunders says post was ‘twisted out of context’
Taking to Instagram again on September 12, Claire apologised for her previous post.
“I’m sorry and I have never ever felt unsafe in my life EVER, especially in my relationship,’ she penned. “Since the show this platform has been so busy and I didn’t realise that the things I share would get so much reach.
“I also didn’t realise that my posts can be taken in five different ways, and twisted completely out of context.”
She went on to say that she and Andrew are “hurting” and have been struggling to “cope” with their split. Particularly since their romance played out in such public fashion.
“He is a beautiful human and out of hurt has made some silly decisions, just like me and all of us,” Claire continued.
“I have never felt unsafe and the post was worded completely wrong, so I really needed to post this for an explanation.”
Claire said she and Andrew have had trouble navigating their public breakup. Source: Instagram
Claire Saunders deactivates Instagram account
After revealing she’ll “close [her Instagram] account for a while”, the FWAW star thanked her followers “for the support”.
“Thank you for the hard lessons. Thank you for the criticism, it made me tough, Thank you for the love, it made me cry (nice tears),” she wrote.
“Andrew will always be the love of my life. I have always been safe in our relationship. Mental health is a tough road to walk down so make sure you surround yourself with your people. Heartbreak makes us say and do silly things. Life is hard so please just be kind to each other.”
Claire concluded: “After today I’ll be taking a break from social to heal my heart and calm my mind.”
