OUR Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen has surprised her children with a new arrival at Ravenseat Farm.

In October of this year, viewers of the beloved Channel 5 series were left sobbing after the Owen family said goodbye to their much-loved pony, Little Joe.

Shepherdess and mother-of-nine Amanda was praised as the “perfect parent” by viewers for showing her children the “circle of life” after their 40-year-old pet passed away.

But just two months later and in order to give their other horse, Tony, someone to bond with, Amanda bought a pedigree Clydesdale horse.

Amanda had a surprise in store for her children, especially youngest Clemmy, five, Annie, seven, and Sidney, nine.

As they all awaited the arrival, Amanda said: “I think they have sussed what the surprise is today, haven’t you?”

Clemmy excitedly shouted: “I know!” before Annie and Sidney joined her and shouted: “A horse!”

As the beautiful filly was unloaded from the van, Clemmy joked: “I don’t think Annie can get on it, it looks quite high!”

Picking up Clemmy so she could get a better look at the new member of the family, Amanda continued: “We’ve thought of a name, haven’t we, Hazel!”

Amanda asked: “What do you think, Clemmy? Is this a bit different to the last pony we bought?”

Amanda also had another surprise in store for the children when she told them: “Well, it also is in foal!”

As the children began to pet the new horse, Amanda told them: “What you need to do now is get to know her like you know our horses, don’t you?”
