Mystery as Our Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen closes Ravenseat Farm as her lover divorces his estranged wife
A MYSTERY has unfolded at Ravenseat Farm after Our Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen closed it to visitors.
The farm in the Yorkshire Dales became popular after featuring on the Channel 5 series, which was fronted by Amanda and her former husband Clive.
Amanda still runs the farm while also looking after her nine children, however, a notice suddenly appeared on her Yorkshire Shepherdess website announcing it was closed.
It read: “Ravenseat Farm is closed to visitors until further notice, so unfortunately we are not serving cream teas.
“Thank you for understanding, Amanda.”
There was no further explanation from Amanda, 48, for the closure.
Members of the public can usually visit the farm for cream teas from May to October between noon and 4pm.
The news comes just days after The Sun exclusively revealed that Amanda’s lover is divorcing his estranged wife.
Robert Davies, 71, had a secret five-year fling with Amanda, with their affair being exposed in April by Robert’s wife Yasumi, 56, after she found a love letter from Amanda in the boot of his car.
It read: “Robert, life is too short and happiness is too rare. I love you.”
Five-times married web designer Robert is now preparing for another divorce — in the hope of marrying mum-of-nine Amanda.
She split from her co-star husband Clive, 68, last year after 21 years together.
A source said: “Robert has begun divorce proceedings with Yasumi.
“She’s finding it very difficult and stressful. It’s been a terrible 12 months for her and it’s not getting any easier.
“Robert has moved into a rented property and is pushing to get the legal process sorted.
“Yasumi suspects he wants to get the divorce done as soon as possible so that he and Amanda can be together.”
