Amanda Owen ‘argues’ with Clive as there’s ‘no romance’ in reunion | Celebrity News | Show business and TV

Amanda Owen has admitted there is “no romance” in her relationship with ex-husband Clive Owen despite their close bond as co-parents to their nine children.

Amanda and Clive announced their separation in June 2022 after 22 years of marriage. But in 2024, the couple teamed up again for a new program on the More4 channel – Our Farm Next Door. Amanda and Clive are filmed working together to renovate a derelict farmhouse in the Yorkshire Dales.

But in a new interview with The Times, Our Yorkshire Farm star Amanda got candid about their off-screen relationship. She explained: “We’re just getting started with this. We are quarreling. We argue. No romance. But we feel good with each other, and that’s a blessing.

“If you’ve been through a breakup, there’s a reason you broke up. And it’s usually because you don’t get along. Who wants this? We are here and we have a joint mission. This is about the future of the farm and the children.”

Amanda explained that their children run between their family home at Ravenseat Farm and the holiday home next door, which is currently not available for rent. She admitted: “(Clive) isn’t very divided.”

In one of the episodes of the series, she admitted: “I’m in his head, he’s in my head. But we’re both essentially on the same side.”

In 2022, Amanda publicly announced her decision to separate, writing on her social media: “It hasn’t been easy, but we both feel this is the right choice for the future of our family.

“Although we are no longer a couple, we continue to farm and co-parent together, with our number one priority being the happiness and well-being of our children.”

She told MailOnline: “No one was involved in the break-up with Clive and I don’t understand why this is being suggested. I just continue to live as an independent woman, looking after the children and the sheep.”

Clive, meanwhile, admitted: “To be honest, I didn’t want to admit that I was no longer the breadwinner for our family. It was especially difficult to realize that Amanda, a very beautiful woman, would go to presentations and events, all dressed up, and meet other people.”
