Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda and Clive Owen earnings from Channel 5 show revealed

Amanda Owen has been one of Channel 5's breakout stars of recent years as viewers enjoying watching the trials and tribulations of the Yorkshire shepherdess at Ravenseat Farm.

The 47-year-old star of Our Yorkshire Farm has seen her family and working life exposed to the nation in the popular documentary.

The mother-of-nine is married to Clive Owen, 68, and their rather unorthodox life has had seen them grow a huge following.

As well as a shepherdess, Amanda is also a best-selling author and in recent years has had a phenomenal rise in the public eye.

Fans were gutted though when the fifth season of her docu-series came to an end at last year with no announcement of a renewal of the popular show but that has now turned to delight when series six as confirmed.

Amanda had previously announced that they would be leaving Ravenseat Farm behind and moving to a new place so they could renovate a nearby property.

The shepherdess has definitely struck gold as she is now making a pretty penny from the TV series and her five best selling books.

It has been a decade on TV for Amanda and the Channel 5 star is bringing in £250k a year from her endeavours.

This is proving to be a far cry from her early days on the show when Amanda told viewers how the family found it hard to make ends meet.

With her social media following growing by the day and her Instagram topping 512,000 followers, Amanda is able to use this to help with her finances through sponsored posts.

The Sun reported that Amanda's business, titled the Yorkshire Shepherdess Ltd, showed in her first accounts that she has a cash and assets surplus of £74,411.

With a creditor in the form of a Corporation Tax bill of £36,456, this means the firm’s earnings before costs and expenses are deducted are reportedly around £250,000 a year.

Amanda has previously spoken out about the difficulties of making a living from farming alone, including shearing their flock of sheep.

She said: "It is a funny one that people don’t realise. People say ‘how do you make your money? Do you make your money from wool?’ No, it's literally worthless. We have to shear the sheep purely for the fact that they need shearing.

"They’ve been domesticated for thousands of years, the wool needs to come off so we shear the sheep. But we, you know, get £200 maybe."

*All episodes of Our Yorkshire Farm are available to watch on My5.
