In latest Amanda Owen news, the Yorkshire Shepherdess has revealed one of her children was recently airlifted to hospital.
The 48-year-old runs Ravenseat Farm in the north Yorkshire Dales with Clive. They separated last year after 22 years of marriage and share nine children together.
However, the nearest hospital is 69 miles away. And this distance has previously meant access to doctors and nurses is not always easy.
Indeed, the Owens’ youngest child Nancy was born in the car on the way to the hospital when Amanda was pregnant with her.
But it seems further medical assistance was needed on the farm a few weeks ago following a medical emergency.
