Our Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen and estranged husband Clive reunite for daughter’s graduation

Our Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen and her estranged husband Clive reunited this week after announcing their split in June.

The TV personality, 48, and her co-star, 67, got together to attend their 21-year-old daughter Raven’s graduation from York St John University, where she was studying biomedicine.

Amanda – who previously said she and Clive would continue to co-parent their nine children – shared photos and wrote on Instagram: “A top notch week for Raven. What an incredible achievement.

So proud to see her graduate from the glorious @york_minster_official @yorkstjohn. No amount of rain could dampen our mood.

“#Yorkshire #degree #study #biomedicine #firstclass #proud #university #york #yorkminister.”

In a moment shared on Saturday, Amanda and Clive stand under an arch with Raven and their 19-year-old son Reuben.

Amanda made her first TV appearance alongside Clive in 2011 on ITV’s The Dales before launching their own Channel 5 show Our Yorkshire Farm in 2018.

However, in June, after months of rumors about the state of their marriage, Amanda and Clive released a joint statement saying they had made “the difficult decision to separate.”

She met her husband in 1995 when he was already divorced with two children, after arriving on his farm as a 21-year-old shepherdess-in-training.

It wasn’t long before the couple got married, with five children soon to follow.

The couple appeared as regulars in Adrian Edmondson’s 2011 ITV documentary series The Dales, alongside the Reverend Ann Chapman, the vicar of four small churches, and a number of others who live in rural Yorkshire.

The public quickly fell for the couple and their unusual love story, dubbing them the “Kardashians of the Countryside.”

They began making more media appearances and offering interviews to the media about their family, with Amanda regularly talking about life as a mother of nine children.

In November 2015, the family appeared in an episode of New Lives In The Wild UK with Ben Fogle, a Channel 5 program produced by Warner Brothers’ Renegade Pictures.

At this stage Amanda started to take up her own media appearances and released her first book The Yorkshire Shepherdess.

In 2017 she released another volume A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess and appeared on BBC Radio 4’s The Museum of Curiosity.

The family’s popularity led to their own Channel 5 observational documentary series called Our Yorkshire Farm, which started in 2018.

It quickly became a hit and was one of the channel’s most popular programs with over three million viewers watching each episode.

In 2019 Amanda released a third book, Adventures of the Yorkshire Shepherdess and was the subject of Radio 4’s On Your Farm.

Meanwhile, she also appeared on the podcast Trees A Crowd with David Oakes.

Meanwhile, Our Yorkshire Farm became an unlikely lockdown hit, proving to be the most watched program in a 9pm slot for two weeks in a row in August.

At the time, viewers said the show was the best TV series they’d seen in years, with many saying they couldn’t wait for the next installment.

The shepherdess began making solo appearances on various TV shows and became a regular on programs like Lorraine and This Morning to comment on parenting and life on the farm.

Meanwhile, Amanda was featured as one of four celebrities traveling with a 360-degree camera in series two of BBC 4’s Winter Walks, with her episode about a journey through Wensleydale and Raydale.

She also filmed a number of reports for Live: Winter on the Farm, broadcast on Channel 5 between 6 and 9 December 2021, and was a guest on Radio 4’s The Poet Laureate Has Gone To His Shed with Simon Armitage.

In the meantime, she released two more books, Tales From the Farm and Celebrating The Seasons, both of which she promoted intensively.

In November last year, neighbors told MailOnline that she and Clive had been living apart for months after she was ‘in the spotlight’ from her Channel 5 programme.

Amanda moved into their rental property down the road from Ravenseat Farm in Swaledale, where Clive was staying at the farm, villagers said.

Clive was seen as ‘desperate’ to mend their relationship and ‘feared’ their marriage would end in divorce.

Meanwhile, Amanda continued to give media interviews saying she had “no regrets” about inviting the public into her life through Our Yorkshire Farm – despite reports that her fame was putting her marriage on the rocks.

But earlier this year, the couple confirmed they had split.

The news left fans of the show appalled, but it came as no surprise to friends of the couple.

A source close to Clive and Amanda said: ‘It’s really sad for both of them that it has come to this, especially with such a large family and some of them so young.

“It’s been an open secret in the valley for a long time that they have problems and live separately.

“Amanda lives in their holiday home, a cottage just under a mile from Ravenseat, and Clive stays on the farm where he has always been.”

Local residents speak The sun have claimed the split came after “rumors had been going around for ages” that she had befriended a cameraman, though they said there was “no suggestion of an affair”.

Following the split, TV insiders said Amanda plans to “go solo” after booking meetings with TV execs and even taking on a PR agency. both brand recommendations and a new show.”

They said there’s “absolutely no reason” why she couldn’t carry a series on her own, adding: “Amanda has it all: sympathy, knowledge, beauty, PR news and, crucially, she’s a natural for the camera.’
