Amanda Owen has remained single since she split from her husband, Clive Owen, in 2022.
The Yorkshire Shepherdess and her ex have a unique living situation, however, as they continue to reside on the same farm despite the end of their marriage.
They both live on Ravenseat Farm in the Yorkshire Dales while co-parenting their nine children. They've said the arrangement works because of the demands of the farm and their commitment to the family.
The former couple are parents to Raven, 25, Reuben, 24, Miles, 23, Edith, 19, Violet, 18, Sidney, 17, Annas, 16, Clementine, 12, and Nancy, 10.
Clive is also a father to two children from his first marriage. His daughter Rosie previously lived on Ravenseat Farm with her parents, but she stopped visiting after her father began his relationship with Amanda.
Amanda and Clive announce their split
In June 2022, Amanda announced on her Instagram Stories: "Clive and I 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. Although we are no longer a couple, we continue to work on the farm and co-parent together, with our number one priority the happiness and well-being of our children."

"It doesn't do much for her image, but she's going to go far. She'll be on Loose Women next. They would stay together forever if it was up to my dad. But after all this fame, it was just a matter of time," she said.
However, Amanda has reiterated that the former couple continue to prioritise co-parenting their children. "Look, there are two simple facts: if he thought I was brilliant, and I thought he was brilliant, then we wouldn’t have separated," she admitted during an interview with the Radio Times.
"It’s a fact, isn’t it? But, you know what, that’s not unique, it’s just how things are, pressures, all the rest of it. But we have nine kids, with associated friends, girlfriends, and we just have to get on with it."
In an exclusive interview with HELLO!, Amanda added: "What am I supposed to say, 'We get on like a house on fire?' Well, if we did, we wouldn't want to separate, would we? He's still the same annoying old Clive that he always was. I've seen him just now, and he's still annoying - I annoy him, and he annoys me."

Amanda has been single since splitting from Clive. In an interview with the Daily Mail, the TV star said she was happy with her current lifestyle.
"I’m getting on with my life as an independent woman, looking after the kids and my sheep,” she said. "There was nobody involved in the break-up with Clive and I don’t understand why this is being suggested.
"I'm living a fantastic life doing what I really love. Everybody in the family is happy with the way things have turned out."
