Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda Owen is said to be plotting her TV comeback after affair allegations emerged.
The mum-of-nine has taken a break from being on our screens but she will be back soon as it's thought she is due to appear on new Channel 4 show Our Farm Next Door. She is set to star alongside her son Reuben and husband Clive, despite recent affair rumours on Amanda's part.
Amanda feared the end of her successful TV career after it was unveiled that she allegedly had a five year relationship with a 71-year-old web designer. She and her family are taking part in the upcoming show while they renovate a farmhouse.
The programme is said to have began production in August and is due to air next year. The Sun reported that a source said: "Amanda’s ego has taken a battering. Her popularity fell off a cliff after the affair was exposed. She knows the only way for her to get back on TV — and for it to be successful — is for Clive to be involved and for them to put up a united front."
69-year-old Clive is said to have agreed to keep working with Amanda on their farm when their 22 year marriage came to an end. It was revealed that Amanda had allegedly been having a relationship with Robert Davies.
Escape to the Chateau's Dick and Angel give exciting news as fans beg for returnIt was reported that Mr Davies’ wife, Yasumi, was heartbroken after she allegedly found a note from Amanda to Robert inside a bag in his car. It read: "Robert, life is too short & happiness is too rare. I love you."
She then said she confronted her husband, who has been married five times, and he confessed to the apparent affair. Yasumi said: “Instead of acknowledging my pain, he was more concerned about protecting her TV career. I’d watched Our Yorkshire Farm and couldn’t help but be impressed by her. She portrayed herself as a wife and a mother, devoted to family, and an inspiration to others. But she’s been lying to the public and living a double life."
Robert is said to still be involved with Amanda, who is a similar age to his daughter. Amanda apparently met Mr Davies when she hired him to launch a website to promote her work. Last month it was reported that he has began divorce proceedings with Yasumi.
Speaking to The Sun, a source claimed: "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."
