Beef farmer meets and marries his muddy match

January usually brings flocks of success stories and updates from newly matched countryside couples, fresh into their fledgling relationship and keen to us know they recently connected.

Not Wiltshire beef farmer – and land agent – Olly. Olly’s update has taken a little longer to reach us: 15 years since he posted his profile on Muddy Matches. However, it was worth the wait.

“Am married to someone I met on Muddy Matches.”

Olly started farmer dating with us back in 2007, showing off his love for farming, rural life, cricket and young farmers (at the time). Now 35, his profile has been hidden from view for many a year and he’s finally given us an update and asked to have his account closed!

A foodie and a fan of game fairs, country shows and point-to-point racing, a fresh faced Olly had hoped to meet a lass who had ‘something about them’ alongside a good sense of humour.

It’s taken a fair while to find out he’d met the one whilst online dating with us, but we are so glad he has.

For nearly 2 decades now, Muddy Matches has been well trusted as the UK and Ireland’s original, award-winning online home of farmer dating and rural dating.

Attracting singles from all walks of country life, it is considered THE go-to online dating service to find love in the countryside.
