Liz Fletcher’s Reflections on Her Husband’s ‘Dream Woman’
During the show, Liz shared her insights into what she perceives as her husband Kelvin’s ideal partner. In a lighthearted moment, she admitted that she does not fit the description. Liz humorously noted, “That’s probably Kelvin’s dream woman, a farmer’s wife. But he got me, and I can’t cook.”
The Christmas Special in Austria
The couple, along with their four children—Marnie, Milo, Maximus, and Mateusz—traveled to Tyrol, Austria. They experienced alpine farming life by staying with the Achrainer family, known for their extensive farming expertise.
- This festive episode featured a traditional baking masterclass.
- Liz collaborated with Martina Achrainer to make Bauernkrapfen, or Farmer’s doughnuts.
- Martina shared that local farmers’ wives produce approximately 500 of these pastries.
Liz expressed her admiration for Martina’s cooking skills, stating, “She doesn’t measure anything, she just knows.” The experience left Liz with a deeper appreciation for traditional farming practices.
Challenges of Farm Life
Kelvin reflected on the couple’s transition to rural living. After moving away from urban life in 2021, they embraced farming with enthusiasm. Kelvin remarked, “What a year it’s been. We’ve fallen for this way of life hook, line, and sinker.”
Despite their passion for farming, the couple faced significant challenges this past year, including a devastating fire that impacted their farmhouse. Through it all, they remain committed to their farming journey.
