She has played the role of cupid as co-host of Farmer Wants A Wife, but what about Natalie Gruzlewski’s own love life?

Off-screen, Natalie, 47, has a beautiful relationship with her husband Jack Ryan.
The pair married in 2012 – a year after Natalie split from her first husband, former professional surfer Luke Egan, whom she was married to between 2009 and 2011.
Jack and Natalie held a secret, surprise wedding attended by just their closest family members.
“We thought, let’s just do it,” Jack told The Australian Women’s Weekly in 2012.
“We didn’t want a large wedding, we just wanted our close family around one table for a relaxing lunch to celebrate with us,” he revealed.
At the time, Natalie explained she was pregnant with her first child and wanted to keep the nuptials a secret.
“We didn’t tell anyone they were coming to a wedding, so it was a huge surprise,” Natalie said.
“I wore a beautiful Lisa Brown dress, it was so relaxed and amazing,” she said, adding, “We loved every minute of it.”
In January 2013, Natalie gave birth to the couple’s daughter, Olivia.
Natalie and Jack keep their family life extremely private, rarely posting photos of each other on social media – Natalie never tags Jack’s profile – and staying away from red carpet events.
But Natalie, who co-hosts Farmer Wants A Wife with Samantha Armytage, has spoken about her love of motherhood, as well as how she balances travelling for work with her family life on the Gold Coast.
“I’m absolutely loving being a mum. I feel very blessed to have a healthy little girl and to be living on the coast [Gold Coast],” she told The Australian Women’s Weekly in 2014.
“It’s gone by in a flash. I try to enjoy every little moment with Olivia.”
Back then, Natalie said the couple had “no plans at this stage for a brother or sister for Olivia”.
“I have the best of both worlds,” the FWAW host said at the time.
“But as any mum will tell you it’s about finding that balance.”
