Reuben Owen and his girlfriend Jessica Ellwood are preparing to take the next step in their relationship as they plan some milestone moments.
The 21-year-old reality television star and his partner of 10 months are hoping to find a farm where they can combine their professional lives, and he has hinted his feelings on started a family of his own.
"We're just waiting for something to come up," Reuben explained. "I've got to try and get a nice place, get a bit of a farm somewhere one day."
The young couple envision a property that would accommodate both their careers. "It would be ideal to have a farm where I can park my diggers and she can have her sheep and cows," Reuben went on.
The young couple's relationship has been documented on Channel 5's Reuben Owen: Life In The Dales.
Jessica, 21, is a Yorkshire shepherdess who has quickly won over both viewers and Reuben's famous family.
The couple's romance has blossomed on screen, with audiences watching Jessica help Reuben with tasks ranging from fixing potholes to quarrying stone, whilst he assists her with catching wayward ewes and bottle feeding lambs.
Reuben's mother Amanda Owen also seems to have given her seal of approval to the relationship. "Mum and Jess get on well, they talk about sheep together," Reuben added, reports The Mirror.

He continued: "They all approve and they all get along really well."
The Our Yorkshire Farm star, who grew up in the public eye, made the decision to include Jessica in his own show after just a few months of dating.
Whilst the couple are focused on finding their own farm, they're also looking ahead to starting a family together.
Marriage and children aren't immediate priorities, but Reuben admits he's keen to reach those milestones "eventually".
However, he's certain he doesn't want to follow in his parents' footsteps when it comes to family size. Amanda and Clive Owen famously have nine children, but their eldest son has different ideas.
"I don't think I fancy nine of them, I don't fancy nine at all. We'll have to wait and see," Reuben admitted.
While his television series mainly centres around Reuben and his work at the farm, a recent episode took an emotional turn.
During an episode, Amanda broke down in tears as she recalled the day her son Miles, 17, was rushed to hospital via an air ambulance after suddenly falling ill.

The instalment saw the mother and son meeting with two members of The Great North Air Ambulance Service who had been sent to the emergency situation at the farm back in 2022.
The family reflected on the heart-stopping moment when Miles suffered an unforeseen bout of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).

Unable to maintain her composure, the Yorkshire Shepherdess broke down in tears as she admitted: "It's bringing it all back for me, even if it's not you," before adding: "I'm not crying, I'm not crying."
