AMANDA Owen’s highly anticipated TV return has got her fans glued to her social media and now there is much excitement over a newply posted photo of three of the mother-of-nine’s daughters.
The Yorkshire shepherdess has shared a photograph of her three grown up daughters- Edith, Raven and Violet-on horseback and viewers who’ve followed their journey since they were little, cannot believe how they’ve matured.

One said: “I recognise Raven but the others are so grown up now.”
Another said: “Goodness do I spy Violet?”
Meanwhile another said: “Great to see you back on here.”
For four years the Channel 5 show Our Yorkshire Farm was one of the most popular fly on the wall reality shows on TV, following life on a remote farm in the Dales, run by shepherdess Amanda, sheep farmer Clive and their nine children.
But in 2022, the couple shocked their fnas by announcing their separation on social media. She said: “Clive and I have are sad to confirm that we have made the difficult decision to separate.
“This hasn’t been easy, but we both believe it’s the right choice for the future of our family.”
Clive has since opened up about his part in their split, admitting his “anger drove her away.”
Following their split the Sun revealed that Amanda had been having a relationship with web designer Robert Davies, who is 22-years her senior.
He was a “good friend” to them, Clive said as he confirmed that Amanda’s new relationship began after they had separated.
However, in 2024, Amanda revealed that her relationship with Robert had ended and that they were no-longer on speaking terms.
Meanwhile, Amanda and Clive have become good friends and continue to co-parent their children and work together on the farm.
Now will be seen together for the first time onscreen since their split for their new series Our Farm Next Door on More 4.
This new five-part observational documentary series will take viewers back to the Yorkshire Dales to follow Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda and her family as they renovate a derelict farmhouse on their property.
Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids charts the Owens’ journey to breathe life back into a derelict neighbouring property they bought to plan for the family’s future.
This first series follows the initial 12 months of the project and sees Amanda, Clive and their nine children work with a team of local tradespeople to slowly bring their ambitious vision for the farmhouse – known locally as Anty John’s – to life, battling against the unforgiving Dales weather on one of the most remote building sites in Britain.
Meanwhile, Amanda delves into the house’s rich history, uncovering the incredible tale of Anthony Clarkson, a Swaledale mapmaker and diarist who lived there in the mid-1800s and documented life in this stunning corner of the Dales.
Alongside the renovation, we spend time with Clive, Amanda and their nine children at home at Ravenseat, as they negotiate a tough year running the family sheep farm in one of the wettest years on record.
Although Amanda and Clive aren’t back together, viewers should expect to see them getting along well in the series.
In a candid interview earlier this year, Clive revealed that he and Amanda maintained a close relationship after their split.
He said: “It’s not like everyone else’s version of leaving a marriage, because she was at the farm the next day and every day thereafter, looking after the kids, feeding us all, doing jobs on the farm – and she still is!”
He added: “The two houses are walking distance, so the kids, now aged from eight to 23, go where they want to go. They do as they please, there’s no tension or animosity about the set-up.
