First look at Amanda Owen and ex-husband Clive’s new Channel 4 show as they make frank admission after split
AMANDA Owen has shared an insight into her life with ex-husband Clive as they cohabit in their brand new show.
The TV couple – who shot to fame on Channel 5’s Our Yorkshire Farm – will return to screens as a duo once again for their new More4 series.
Called Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids, it will follow the Yorkshire family as they restore a nearby derelict property that they’ve purchased to add to their estate at their Ravenseat Farm.
It’s the first time fans will see the entire family back together since Amanda, 50, announced her split from Clive after 22 years of marriage.
The announcement resulted in the natural conclusion of Our Yorkshire Farm, which left fans of the family devastated.
Footage from their series – which launches tonight – sees the pair working on their new dilapidated farm house as they discover love notes inside.
In our exclusive first look at the five-part series, Amanda candidly admits the pair still get on each other’s nerves.
Speaking to the camera, she says: “I do his head in, that’s his words.
“He does my head in, I do his head in, but we are both basically on the same side.”
Clive adds: “I’m very practical, so that’s my side of things, but Amanda, she’s very good at saying how she wants things.”
The initial 12 months of the project and sees Amanda, Clive and their 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.
The ex-couple are parents to nine children who vary in ages from seven to 23 years old.
Fans were recently left stunned over how grown up the children looked when proud mum Amanda posted a new snap of Edith, Raven and Violet on horseback.
Viewers who’ve followed their journey since they were little, could not believe how they’ve matured.
“I recognise Raven but the others are so grown up now,” one fan exclaimed, while another said: “Great to see you back on here.”
Amanda Owen's relationship timeline
The Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda Owen has lived most of her life in the public eye as her Channel 5 series Our Yorkshire Farm shined a spotlight on her rural life with ex-husband Clive and their nine children. Sadly, Amanda's relationship with Clive hit the rocks and in 2022 the couple announced their split. Let's take a closer look at the timeline of their relationship, plus Amanda's other notable romance...
Amanda married Yorkshire farmer Clive Owen, who is 19 years her senior, in 2002.
The couple welcomed nine children together over the course of their marriage.
Their nine children, in descending order of age, are Raven, Reuben, Miles, Edith, Violet, Sidney, Annas, Clemmie, and Nancy.
There is a large age gap between some, with the oldest, Raven, now 23 and the youngest, Nancy, only 8.
Clive and Amanda appeared to be very much in love as they documented their home and working life together at Ravenseat in their Channel 5 series.
However, they shocked their fans on Thursday, June 9, 2022, when Amanda shared an Instagram post confirming that she and Clive had split.
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.
They will reunite for a new Channel 4 documentary series that will see them attempt to restore an neglected property on their land.
Our Farm Next Door premieres tonight on More4 at 9pm.
