Beloved shepherdess and television personality Amanda Owen has broken her silence about growing family tensions, delivering a firm message that she's taking control of the situation. The Channel 5 star, known to millions as the Yorkshire Shepherdess from 'Our Yorkshire Farm', has declared she's putting her foot down to protect her children from unwanted attention.
Family Changes Ahead
In a heartfelt revelation, Owen confirmed that her eldest children are preparing to leave the family's iconic Ravenseat Farm in North Yorkshire. The mother-of-nine expressed mixed emotions about this natural progression, acknowledging that while it's a normal part of life, it brings significant changes to the tight-knit family dynamic viewers have come to adore.
Drawing the Line on Privacy
'I'm putting my foot down,' Owen stated emphatically when discussing how she's handling increased public interest in her family's personal lives. The television personality has become increasingly protective of her children's privacy as they navigate teenage years and young adulthood under the spotlight.
'There comes a point where you have to say enough is enough,' she explained, highlighting the delicate balance between sharing their farming life with viewers and maintaining necessary boundaries for her children's wellbeing.
The Ravenseat Legacy Continues
Despite the impending changes, Owen remains committed to both her farming heritage and television career. The 48-year-old shepherdess continues to work the land at Ravenseat while developing new projects that respect her family's evolving needs.
'Farming doesn't stop because life changes,' Owen noted, suggesting that while the family structure might be shifting, their connection to the land and their way of life remains constant.
Looking to the Future
With several children still at home and the farm continuing its operations, Owen appears determined to navigate these transitions with the same practical approach that has characterised her farming career. Her warning serves as both a statement of intent and a reminder that behind the television persona lies a mother fiercely protective of her family.
