Lorraine Kelly taken aback as Amanda Owen makes foul-mouthed swipe at ex-husband Clive
Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda Owen did not hold back as she jokingly ranted about ex-husband Clive during an appearance on Lorraine on Wednesday morning. Amanda Owen left Lorraine Kelly stunned with a candid and somewhat irreverent remark about her ex-husband Clive as she opened up about raising their nine children together. Their children are Raven, 23, Reuben, 21, Miles, 18, Edith, 16, Violet, 14, Sidney, 13, Annas, 11, Clemmy, nine, and Nancy, eight. The 50 year old shepherdess and Clive parted ways three years ago after a 22-year marriage. Fans of Our Yorkshire Farm adored the couple, watching them and their children grow at Ravenseat Farm in North Yorkshire. Amanda, now starring in Channel 4's Our Farm Next Door, appeared on Lorraine to discuss her hectic life. However, the conversation took an unexpected turn, reports the Express. Amanda pondered, cradling a lamb: "Why have I got nine children? Because I never set out to have nine children. "It was never a big dream to have a big family that didn't come from anywhere. "Believe me, there was never a sit-down moment where we said, 'Let's try and repopulate Swaledale.'" She revealed that her children keep her spirits high and entertained during the chat. Shortly after, she confessed: "They run me ragged. They drive me mad." Then, she quipped: "I haven't got anything to complain about. Well, I have, obviously, Clive for a start... Yeah you can tell Lorraine we're in perfect f***ing harmony." Following her candid remark, the camera cut to Clive in the background, operating a tractor. Amanda shared: "I complain about him. I complain about the state of the houses. I complain about the kids throwing things everywhere. "I complain about the sheep that this lamb belongs to." Catch Lorraine every weekday at 9am on ITV1, with episodes also available for streaming on ITVX. The Owen family 's journey on Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive, and Kids reached its conclusion earlier this week. The clan made significant headway in their refurbishment of Anty John's abode. Amanda Owen confirmed there remains a long road ahead to see the renovation through to completion. As the episode wrapped up, it was revealed that the family are pressing on with the project, with Amanda confirming they were "forging ahead." "We're really on to the next stage," announced the mum-of-nine. In the programme's final moments, viewers were treated to an image of the house with all the workers gathered outside. The screen then displayed the message 'To Be continued...' While fans may be saddened by the series ending, they can look forward to a new offering hosted by Matt Baker. According to the TV listings, Matt Baker's British Isles will fill the 9pm Tuesday slot on More4, taking over from Our Farm Next Door. The synopsis for the first episode reads: "Matt Baker explores the four nations of the UK. In this first episode, he heads to Kent to meet the Englishman teaming up with one of the world's most prestigious champagne houses to realise a dream of making the first true Anglo-French sparkling wine. In the Highlands, Matt meets two ex-farmers whose lives are entwined with the village of Crathie's church." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Our Farm Next Door's replacement announced as series two of Amanda and Clive Owen's show ends - amid hotly anticipated update on future of beloved programme
Our Farm Next Door's replacement has been announced as series two of Amanda and Clive Owen's show ends - with a hotly anticipated update on its future. Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids aired its first series on Channel 4 in October last year, a spin-off from Our Yorkshire Farm, about the family's home life. The new show, which returned for a second series in April, sees shepherdess Amanda and ex-husband Clive renovate a derelict farmhouse near their farm in the Yorkshire Dales. The pair, who split in 2022 after 22 years of marriage, share nine children together, with their co-parenting efforts also documented on the reality show. Series two sadly concluded earlier this week - but fans now know both what will be taking over its slot and whether they can expect a third series, the Express reports. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Amanda gave a final update on the works at Anty John's, near the family's Ravenseat Farm in the Swaledale valley of Yorkshire, at the end of the final episode. She admitted the family still had a lot more renovation work to complete - but determinedly added they were 'forging ahead'. 'We're really on to the next stage', she said. And before the credits rolled, viewers saw a final shot of the house, with all the construction workers outside - with the caption: 'To be continued...' It suggests viewers could reasonably expect another series of the beloved programme. But despite the sad conclusion of the show for now, Channel 4 will be filling its slot with more great outdoorsy telly. British Isles, presented by veteran Countryfile host Matt Baker, will take the place of Our Farm Next Door in the More4 programming schedule - Tuesdays at 9pm. Filmed across the four nations of the UK, it will see the host meet the people 'at the heart of British industry' in each country, according to Channel 4. British Isles, presented by veteran Countryfile host Matt Baker (pictured), will take the place of Our Farm Next Door in the More4 programming schedule - Tuesdays at 9pm He will see them at work in the nation's most 'extreme landscapes' - and champion those 'preserving Britain's rich and proud history and heritage'. It will provide a snapshot of modern Britain, 'from cities to coastlines, workshops to woodlands and farms to factory floors' - and capture the beauty of its landscapes. Amanda previously spoke out about what the renovation project at the heart of Our Farm Next Door has really been like: 'I think we've developed quite a camaraderie really. 'It's a huge learning curve and every one of the people who worked on a project has their own speciality in what they do.' 'Getting all that to come together, it's been amazing. It's meant that the children particularly have been able to follow this project and see it and learn.' She concluded: 'It's not your average project. The fact is that you can't even get here half the time with your vehicle and you have to walk in! 'We've had all these horrible weather conditions, no amenities. You can't even scroll on your phone at dinnertime! Nothing works, that's a big ask.' It comes after Amanda and Clive were hit with controversy, over a 'disgusting and disturbing' video of their son Reuben, which sparked fan backlash on social media. Earlier this month, the shepherdess, 50, shared a clip of Reuben, 21, laying on an ewe and lamb while helping her out on the family farm. The video received a number of negative comments - and Amanda decided to speak out about the matter earlier this week. Sharing a video of her milking an ewe, alongside some other snaps from lambing season, Amanda said: 'Here we go!!!! More disgusting and disturbing behaviour just for ewe. '*Obviously we haven't learnt anything, even after being slammed for the ill treatment of these woolly commodities*. Time to finally explain myself. 'Amazingly enough, it's been a busy couple of months, the physical birth element of lambing time is just a part of the picture.' The Our Yorkshire Farm star explained that after giving birth, the animals can experience some issues. She continued: 'Post natal care is of utmost importance and consequently feeding issues can sometimes require a sheep to be caught in order to treat the issue. 'They are not particularly good patients but we treat them with care, compassion and as infrequently as possible. 'So far, after a lifetime of shepherding I have never had one willingly saunter over and request help with labour, breast feeding or any other minor ailment. 'Maybe it would be a lot easier to take care of them and handle them if they were all crammed into an industrial shed, not free to exercise and graze the meadows, moors & pastures????? 'But I reckon that we all know that being outside, free to wander and live naturally is a far better way for them. 'Incidentally the person most likely to be injured in the whole process of catching and restraining a sheep is me or even one of the sheepdogs.' Many rushed to the comments section to share their support.
