Insiders claimed that Clive wants the family to stay together for Christmas, but that the decision is entirely in Amanda’s hands (Pictured).
47-year-old mother of nine lives with her family at the Ravenseat farm on the Yorkshire Dales, which covers 2,000 acres. She moved to the area in 1996 to train as shepherdess.
Due to the popularity of Channel 5’s Our Yorkshire Farm, she has gained a large following. However, news about the couple’s marriage has become the ‘talk’ in the village.
According to The Sun, a source said that it was incredibly sad. Clive and Amanda are hugely popular in the Dales and nobody could have predicted their deaths.
“Clive loves Amanda deeply and adores Amanda. However, he fears that their marriage may end even though it is his desire. He fears that they will split.
Amanda will soon release a new book that focuses on her family’s life at the Dales. This news will be announced on Wednesday.
The book, entitled A Year in Yorkshire Shepherdess’ Life, provides insight into the ages-old cycles of a farm year and the constant challenges that the family faces.
According to the source, “Obviously everyone around them hopes that they can work it out. 21 years of happy marriage won’t end in divorce courts.”

Amanda met her husband when he was already separated with two children. After she arrived on his farm as a 21 year-old trainee shepherdess, Amanda met him in 1996.
The couple lives with their children Raven (20 years old), Reuben (17 years old), Miles (15-15) and Edith (12-12).
The mother of nine grew up with her parents in a traditional three-bed home in Huddersfield.
At 6ft 2in, the blonde was encouraged by her mother to follow the same career path, but she hated the clothes she had to wear and the make-up.
She moved from her small-town life to work on farms across the country. But Ravenseat Farm was where she found her calling.
Many of her children help on the farm when she is not at school.
