Hailing from Sikeston, Missouri, Ferrell is a 42-year-old single dad. He owns a 50-acre farm with horses and roping cattle and lists his occupation as a team roper, per FOX.
Per his bio, he is divorced and has a 12-year-old daughter, Lennon Tyler. Lennon shares an interest in horseback riding and fishing with her father, and the proud dad often posts sweet tributes to his little girl on Instagram.
"She may not like it as much when I call her my baby girl any more, but that's one thing she will always be in my eyes," he wrote on her 12th birthday in August 2023. "Daddy lil girl from day one. Happy 12th birthday Lennon Tyler."
Ferrell joined Farmer Wants a Wife in the hopes of finding his "person" to enjoy life on his farm with.
"I'm looking for someone to be my person, my partner, the good, the bad and everything that's in between," he said in his promotional video for the show. "This experience is about me finding somebody."
He specified that he was looking for someone who has "high level intelligence" and a "beautiful mind." However, the woman would need to win the approval of his daughter first.
"My little girl is my everything," he said.
