Amanda Owen, 47, and Clive Owen, 67, announced they had parted ways last Thursday, as the pair continue to work on the farm and co-parent their nine children. Our Yorkshire Farm fans have shared their fears for Clive’s future on Ravenseat Farm in Swaledale after Amanda moved out of their shared home.
Last Thursday, Amanda took to Instagram to share the news of her and Clive’s separation with her 513,000 followers.
“Clive and I are sad to confirm that we have made the difficult decision to separate,” she wrote.
“This hasn’t been easy, but we both believe it’s the right choice for the future of our family.
“Although we are no longer a couple, we continue to work on the farm and co-parent together, without number one priority the happiness and well-being of our children.
“We would like to thank everyone for their support and would ask that the media please respect our privacy as we work through this difficult time.
