Our Yorkshire Farm star Amanda Owen spoke candidly about her ex-husband Clive and her experience of continuing to work and live with him despite their split.
Ms Owen, 51, ended her 22-year marriage to the farmer, 70, in 2022, effectively bringing to a close the Channel 5 documentary they featured in alongside their nine children, Our Yorkshire Farm.
However, the former couple still live together and have gone on to front different TV programmes together, such as Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids.
Ms Owen, also known as The Yorkshire Shepherdess, revealed a recent incident that left her bickering with her ex as she confessed she was still "up against it" despite "getting on with it".

She shared how Mr Owen had called her in a panic just moments before her interview, after he'd confused washing-up liquid with cooking oil.
"He had fried eggs in some yellow washing up liquid, so he was complaining that I shouldn't buy washing up liquid in yellow," Ms Owen revealed on ITV's Lorraine on Thursday.
She went on: "Washing-up liquid should only be green. We are up against it, believe me.
"But the idea is that we're just getting on with it, there's plenty to do, plenty of space. Let's be honest, that's reality. That's the reality."

Ms Owen found fame with the popular Channel 5 series, which ran for five seasons.
Our Farm Next Door debuted in 2024, airing on Channel 4. A third series of the docuseries was recently given the green light, much to the delight of fans.
Viewers will know the former couple's children have been very hands-on with the farm work at Ravenseat, with Raven, 24, Reuben,18, Miles, 16, Edith, 15, Violet, 14, Sidney, 13, Annas, 10, Clemmie, nine, and Nancy, eight, all featuring in both shows.
However, Ms Owen told Lorraine viewers she doesn't place expectations on them to follow her career path.
"It's relatable, and that's a huge thing. I'm here now, I'm dressed up. People say, 'What's your intention?'
"They're all different characters. My idea with everything we've done as a family is about taking opportunities and not being scared to try to push yourself forward. That's what I want for all the children."
In a recent appearance on the Made By Mammas podcast, host Georgia Dayton pointed out the "risks" that come with working on a farm.
"Absolutely. Tonnes of risks," Ms Owen replied. "You don't have to go so very far to find something that will kill you. Every which way you can go, you can find that.

"But you have to look at the things where you're not looking that can get you as well.
"Sometimes, the obvious risk is the easiest. We're surrounded by water.
"This summer, the children decided that every single day, they would swim. And literally, come hell or high water, they did this."

She confessed she had been concerned about the prospect of the youngsters swimming in "complete inky blackness," but recalled being a child herself and wanting to do what she'd been told not to.
"That 'don't' attitude often makes it more alluring," the Yorkshire Shepherdess added.
