Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda Owen, 48, is pictured with 'businessman lover' ... trends now

Amanda Owen has been pictured out with her new businessman lover Robert Davies, ten months after confirming her separation from husband Clive.

The Our Yorkshire Farm star, 48, looked cosy with the web designer, 71, as they arrived at Folkestone Leas Hall by car on Tuesday, where she had been due to perform her one woman show about farming in the Yorkshire Dales.

Wrapping up in a navy coat, she layered the number above a matching dress while sporting heavy-duty boots and her light brown locks in bunches.

Clive, meanwhile, cut a smart figure in a light blue shirt and an indigo coat as he supported his new partner.

It comes after MailOnline uncovered a photo of the pair taken four-and a half years before her marriage collapsed.

Amanda and her estranged husband Clive hired web designer Robert to launch a website to promote her work after she shot to national prominence.

Amanda and Clive, 68, were married for 21 years and have nine children but announced their separation last June.

In a Facebook post from December 2018, Mr Davies, 71 posted a picture of himself with Amanda and writes: 'Have you been watching Channel 5's series 'Our Yorkshire Farm' about the Yorkshire Shepherdess? I really enjoyed working on her website earlier this year, and very happy that she loves it!'

In a response to a message, he described Amanda as 'amazing.' 

In an earlier post from January 2018 Mr Davies even boasted about having lunch with Amanda and Clive at their Ravenseat farm in North Yorkshire.

Posting a picture of the couple, he wrote: 'Had lunch with these two at their farm in Upper Swaledale. 1,000 sheep, 9 kids and very soon a brand-new website for the Yorkshire Shepherdess.'

He also posted a message he received from Amanda in which she writes: 'I forgot to thank you for making the epic trip in coming to me. That was appreciated. I love the website, I know that j (sic) am hard work and that it has been a long haul but you have achieved the near unachievable in crafting something that I think reflects me. With just a few minor tweaks we will be good to go. Happy . Amanda.'

Businessman Robert runs It'seeze Web Design Scarborough, which is based in the North Yorkshire seaside town and designed Amanda's website, 'yorkshireshepherdess.com' which was launched in 2018.
