Farmer Wants A Wife viewers were left baffled watching Monday night’s episode when two of Farmer Tom’s contestants decided to abruptly quit the reality show less than 24 hours after arriving on his farm. Bridget Armstrong, 34, and Emmie-Rose Shore, 29, were filmed hopping into a Maxi Taxi in the early hours of the morning without saying goodbye to Tom or letting him know why they were leaving.
While fans criticised the duo for being “rude” and “disrespectful”, Bridget has since taken to social media to reveal that there was “so much” that wasn’t shown on TV. The lawyer shared a rogue post on her dog’s Instagram account on Tuesday morning explaining why she wanted to leave the farm, hinting that it had to do with Tom’s behaviour.
“They left out the moment when the farmer was openly rude to [me] in front of everyone, just hours after [I] arrived on the farm,” she detailed. “Other contestants and the House AP immediately checked in with [me].”
Bridget went on to clarify that this is why she retreated to her room to read a book while her co-stars helped Tom prepare dinner, not because she didn’t want to help.
“During dinner, the farmer actually asked to speak to [me] privately to apologise for his earlier behaviour – something viewers never saw,” she added. “Most importantly, despite everything, both Emmie and [I] graciously thanked Farmer Tom off-camera and wished him well before the film crew even arrived.”

Producer shares rogue post
Following this, Bridget reshared an Instagram Story posted by a Farmer Wants A Wife producer of herself and Emmie “trying to work out how to get home” in the middle of the night.
“Shout out to Brig and Emmie, this was us up in front of the fire till 2am scheming the night before,” the rogue producer captioned the selfie.
Bridget also added in an Instagram comment that she had “never watched the show before”, so she had no idea what to expect.

Emmie-Rose goes rogue: ‘My love’
While Bridget’s exit surprised viewers after her speed date with Tom went so well in episode one, it wasn’t too much of a shock that Emmie-Rose quit the show after Yahoo Lifestyle revealed that she had already moved on with someone else.
The former competitive bikini model posted a series of loved-up snaps on Instagram last month with her boyfriend Alex, who is also a fitness coach, alongside the caption: “My love ❤️”.
The since-deleted post also featured the song ‘LOVE LOOKS PRETTY ON YOU’ by Nessa Barrett, and received a comment from one follower who said: “You both look great together.”
While reality TV participants are typically instructed to keep their relationship status private while the show is airing so they don’t spoil any storylines, her rogue post and sudden walkout suggest she’s not one to follow the rules.
