Our Yorkshire Farm star Reuben Owen has opened up on the separation of his parents, Amanda and Clive Owen.
The 20-year-old starred in the farming series with his parents and eight siblings as the docuseries chronicled their life on Ravenseat Farm.
The ex husband and wife fronted the show for five series from 2018 to 2022, but when the Owens decided to split, the Channel 5 show had to come to an end.
While the nine children haven't spoken publicly about their parents' separation, Reuben has now opened up on why it was "not a big deal" for the family.
He detailed how the former couple gathered the family together to break the news to them about the breakup.
"Yeah, they spoke about it, but it's not really a big deal between any of us," Reuben reflected.

Speaking to MailOnline, he continued: "It's quite simple really. Everyone gets along great. It's not really changed for any of us, if you get me."
When asked if his parents had made sure not to impact their children with too much change, he replied: "Yes, they decided and that was that. They are happy as they are."
He went on to add his seven younger siblings are "not fussed" by the divorce.
"Everyone makes it work," he went on. "Beyond that, it's not my business. All I want is for them to be happy. That is all that matters. They are happy, and that's all that counts."
Amanda and Clive Owen, 49 and 68, were together for 22 years and ran the farm with the help of their children.
Second-oldest child Reuben has now landed his own TV series following the show's cancellation.
Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales debuted last month and followed the youngster across six episodes where he attempted to continue to grow his business and love for machinery with his friend Tommy McWhirter and girlfriend Sarah Dow.
Viewers were introduced to the trio at the start of Reuben’s second year of trading, with the team winning a contract to restore life to an old fishing pond at a grand country estate in County Durham – excavating 6,000 tonnes of silt.
