Jenny Isaksson Leaves Farmen After Log-Splitting Competition
Key Points
  • Jenny Isaksson left Farmen during Sunday's episode along with another participant
  • She was appointed second champion by Alex Söderholm and chose the axe for a log-splitting task
  • She faced challenges including a thicker log for Alex and inability to use her trained technique, and held an ethical stance against winning at all costs

Jenny Isaksson, a 48-year-old from Piteå, had to leave Farmen during Sunday's episode, and two participants in total exited the show that day, according to multiple reports. In the competition, she was appointed second champion by Alexander 'Alex' Söderholm, 32, and selected the axe as her item for a task that involved splitting a log in half to release a ring. However, when facing Alex, he had a log that was 25 percent thicker, and she could not use the technique she had trained on, though the specific method remains unclear.

According to Norrländska Socialdemokraten, Jenny Isaksson described that she knew upon entering she would not step over corpses to win, and she did not, reflecting her ethical stance, but the exact reasons for her departure are not confirmed. The identity of the other participant who left and why she chose the axe are also unknown, with the competition's rules potentially influencing the outcome.

I have received so much love.

I knew when I went in that I would not go over corpses to win, and I did not either.
