Four years after ending their marriage, Amanda Owen and Clive Owen have continued to find a way forward together — not as husband and wife, but as parents, farm partners and members of the same family.

Known to television audiences as the Yorkshire Shepherdess and her former husband, Amanda and Clive became familiar faces through their life on Ravenseat Farm and the popular series Our Yorkshire Farm. Their relationship and busy family life unfolded in front of viewers, alongside the challenges of raising their nine children while running a demanding rural business.

Their separation marked a major change for the family, but it did not mean that Amanda and Clive completely walked away from one another.

Instead, the years since their split have seen them gradually develop a different kind of relationship, centered on their children and their shared connection to farming.

For a family with nine children, maintaining a sense of togetherness after a marriage ends can be complicated. Yet Amanda and Clive have continued to work around their responsibilities as parents, demonstrating that the end of a marriage does not necessarily mean the end of a family unit.

Now, their story is entering another chapter with their return to the screen in Our Farm Next Door.

The new series follows Amanda and Clive as they work on restoring Anty Johns, a historic property that has become another major project in their lives.

The restoration brings them back together in a practical sense, requiring cooperation, hard work and a shared commitment to a long-term goal.

For viewers who remember the couple from their earlier television years, seeing them working together again offers a very different picture from the one audiences might have expected after their separation.

Their relationship has changed, but their connection through their children and the farm remains.

Amanda has continued to build her career in television and agriculture, while Clive remains closely connected to farming and the family’s rural life. Their ability to work alongside each other has become an important part of their evolving family story.

At the center of it all are their nine children, whose lives have continued to connect Amanda and Clive despite the changes in their relationship.

Rather than presenting their story as a simple reunion or reconciliation, their current circumstances show something more complicated: two people who have experienced the end of a marriage but have still found reasons to remain connected.

Their return in Our Farm Next Door therefore represents more than another television project. It gives viewers a glimpse into how a family can adapt when circumstances change and how relationships can evolve without completely disappearing.

Amanda and Clive’s journey also reflects the realities faced by many families after separation. Moving forward does not always require people to erase their shared history. Sometimes, it means establishing new boundaries and discovering a different way to cooperate.

For the Owens, that shared future continues to involve their children, farming and the restoration of a historic property.

Four years after their separation, Amanda and Clive are showing that the end of a marriage can mark the beginning of a different chapter rather than the end of a family’s story.

Their lives may no longer follow the same path they once did, but their commitment to their children and their shared world of farming continues to give them reasons to stand side by side.

And as Our Farm Next Door brings that journey back to television, viewers will once again see Amanda and Clive navigating the challenges of family, farming and an evolving relationship — proving that sometimes starting again means finding a new way to move forward together.
