Now, Clary has shed light on their unexpected breakup and revealed that they decided to go their separate ways after their relationship became strained.
The reality TV star explained that they were both under stress when Andrew's father became seriously ill, and Claire called off the wedding.
“I called off the marriage in July and I can't marry you to anyone,” she told WHO.
'He needed some space so I went to Darwin for a dry spell and then the wheels really fell off and we're not in touch anymore, it's a terrible time.'
She shared the devastation of their split and admitted that the split was not easy because she still 'really loves' Andrew.
Many of their wedding guests still made the trip to Sydney despite the cancellation and were unable to get their flights back, while Claire stayed at her family home. Tasmania.
Claire Saunders has revealed why she and her partner Andrew Coleman abruptly called off their marriage in July.
'[The guests] Everyone bumped into each other at the airport. It was weird,' Claire said, adding that her friends were still making the trip.
'I was at home with the bridesmaids dresses and the cowboy boots we bought and then the wedding topper changed in the post.'
Claire and Andrew met on the 13th series of FWAW and confirmed their engagement in March this year, but called off their wedding a few months later.
Andrew recently broke his silence on their split and said he was proud of them both despite their relationship not working out.
She said of her time on the Channel 7 reality TV show: 'It was exciting and humbling and reminded me how important love and connection are.
In the midst of it all, an extraordinary woman captured my heart and we decided to give it a shot.
'We moved in together, dreaming of a future where our love would grow together with the farm. It was fast-paced, emotional and fun.'
Claire revealed that they decided to go their separate ways after a strain in their relationship when Andrew's father fell ill.
He continued: 'But life had other plans. Despite the love and effort we both put in, sometimes things just don't work out.
Living together brought its own challenges, and we realized that our paths were not intertwined.
'It's sad that the relationship ended, but I stand tall knowing we gave it our all. Although it didn't take us where we hoped, it helped us grow.
'It's a huge cost of heart and soul. And while it's painful to walk away, we've both come out stronger, wiser, and more in tune with what really matters.
'As I move forward, I choose to celebrate the love we shared, the lessons learned and the strength gained. No regrets, only thanks.'
The 2023 series saw the fan-favourite pair romance when they famously left the show from the start to pursue their relationship together at Andrew's farm in Narromine, NSW.
