Amanda Owen recently opened up about how the popular show Our Yorkshire Farm played a significant role in the breakdown of her marriage. For four years, from 2018 to 2022, both Amanda and her husband Clive, who is a sheep farmer, were followed by cameras for the Channel 5 series. However, after the couple announced their divorce, it was also revealed that the show would be coming to an end.
It has been two years since their split, and both Amanda and Clive have shared their thoughts on how the pressure of being in the spotlight took a toll on their relationship. Amanda explained that even before the show, she was already looking for ways to earn more money for her family, and when the opportunity to be featured on ITV's The Dales came along in 2011, she was determined not to let it pass her by. She went on to write five books and make several other TV and public appearances, all while trying to provide for her family and make a comfortable home for them.
However, as her fame grew, Amanda found herself spending more time away from the farm. This started to cause tension between her and Clive, who was not a fan of her being away. Amanda admitted that she would often come home to an unpredictable and tense atmosphere, and she would try to overcompensate by showing her commitment to the family in any way she could.
But this constant back and forth eventually took a toll on Amanda, and she began to feel exhausted. She started spending more time away from the farm and Clive, which only deepened the rift between them. Clive also shared his perspective on their split, admitting that he never expected the show to become as popular as it did and that it took up a lot of Amanda's time.
He also revealed that he struggled with not being the main provider for their family anymore and that he began to feel insecure and resentful of Amanda's success. He admitted that he wasn't proud of how he behaved during that time, and his own struggles with depression and anger led him to turn to alcohol for comfort.
Both Amanda and Clive took responsibility for their split, with Clive acknowledging that his anger and behavior ultimately drove Amanda away. The former couple also addressed Amanda's relationship with their friend Rob Davies, which became public last year. Despite rumors of an affair, Amanda and Clive shut down these claims and revealed that they are no longer together or in touch.
They also clarified that the decision to end their show was not because it was axed, but because their lives had changed, and they wanted to focus on other things. In fact, they are now working on a brand new TV series that follows their journey of restoring a derelict farmhouse they bought and exploring its history.
Even though Our Yorkshire Farm may have come to an end, Amanda and Clive's story continues, and they are excited to share their new project with their audience. The show is now available for streaming on Channel 5, and the former couple is looking forward to what the future holds.
