Sara V.'s parents have some important questions for Ryan in an exclusive 'Farmer Wants a Wife' clip ahead of an important episode.
There's no better way to know if you're well-suited for a woman than to meet her family and visit her hometown with an army of cameras in tow. At least, that's the case for shows like The Bachelor and now, Fox's Farmer Wants a Wife. In an exclusive clip ahead of the May 3 episode, Ryan meets Sara V.'s parents during her hometown visit and it's a big moment for them.

In the clip, when Sara V.'s dad asks Ryan about the "biggest sacrifice" he has ever made, Ryan doesn't take too much time to prepare his answer. And it shows, for the umpteenth time, how real the farmers are in this show. Ryan tells producers that things got "really serious really quick." But he answers the question honestly.
"Being there for my mom when we lost my older brother, he was nine years old, and I was seven at the time," Ryan says in the clip. "And I had to start working at 12 years old to help financially with everything. And I was so young at the time, it didn't feel like a sacrifice. It felt like a responsibility."

During a date earlier in the season, Ryan explained to Lily how his brother was born prematurely and later died at the age of nine from complications relating to his health issues. Ryan is extremely close to his family, including at least one other brother, and his mom, who appeared briefly earlier in the season.
It's unclear if the Farmer Wants a Wife ladies will also meet the guys' respective families before the finale. But it would only be fair at this point to put them in the hot seat too.
Watch Farmer Wants a Wife on Wednesdays at 9 p.m. EST on Fox.
