Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles is set to host the latest FOX reality dating show, titled ‘Farmer Wants a Wife,’ set to premiere on March 8, 2023.
The premise of the show surrounds four farmers looking for love and Nettles will help them find it. Farmer Wants a Wife will see the bachelors or bachelorettes in question bring a group of dates to their respective ranches where they will offer a look at daily life on the farm. Contestants vying for love will leave their city lives behind in the hopes of winning over their farmer. The show poses the question: How much of your life are you willing to change for love?
FOX Entertainment President of Programming Allison Wallach said in a statement: “We found the perfect pairing in Jennifer, a multi-talented entertainer who’s a little country, a little big city and huge on heart and humor, making her the perfect choice for wrangling romance in the heartland.”
Meanwhile the country duo Sugarland (fronted by Nettles alongside guitarist Kristian Bush) celebrated their 20th anniversary as a band this year. The pair were on hiatus before reuniting at the 51st Annual Country Music Association Awards in 2017, where they announced their regrouping to work on new music. In 2018, they released their sixth studio album, Bigger.
