Our Yorkshire Farm fan saddened over Amanda Owen's unannounced farm closure

One Our Yorkshire Farm fan has been left disappointed after taking a trip to Amanda Owen's popular farm, only to find it closed. The Ravenseat rural spot usually welcomes viewers of the much-loved show with refreshments including warm drinks and cakes, but one fan turned up to find its doors locked, with no explanation why.

Amanda Owen's on-site refreshments centre was supposed to be open as expected, but despite the fan being told it would be serving up hot drinks to guests, the café was empty, reports the Mirror.

Taking to the star's Instagram page, the ticked-off customer wrote: "Your website said you were open yesterday but when we got there the closed for Winter sign was still on the gate. Such a shame."

It has been claimed that Amanda may have delayed the opening following a difficult time in her personal life. She has only just made her return to social media with a cryptic post about 'trials and tribulations' after her ex-husband Clive spoke out about their split.

The 48-year-old shepherdess last posted on Instagram over a month ago and fans were over the moon when she shared a new post. Amanda, who split from her husband Clive last year, has been focusing on her children, work projects and moving on from her 22-year marriage as it's been reported she's become inseparable with a new man.

After a social media break, she returned with a carousel of photos of her children and sheep on their farm. "Trials and tribulations," she captioned the post along with many sheep emojis.

The former couple called it quits last year after telling fans the decision was the 'right choice for their family'. However, they looked like pleased to be in each other's company recently as they grinned in a picture with their kids.

Clive, 58, recently revealed why he and Amanda split up - blaming himself "massively". Speaking on the Lorraine show, he said: "I sadly made a right mess of things basically. I had a massive part to play in the relationship ending. A massive part to play. I was ranting and raving and drinking and carrying on. I don't know - jealousy.

"It seemed to eat away at me and I handled it badly and I behaved badly towards her. I should have been supportive ... It's been really upsetting, Amanda's having a tough time at the moment. I just feel I can't sit back. I have to say something in her defence, she's a remarkable woman. We just got to the point where we couldn't be together anymore."
