YORKSHIRE Shepherdess Amanda Owen got her hands dirty on the farm today as she sheared sheep.

Fans were full of compliments for her work ethic and looks as the TV star, 47, as she got to work in a black vest top.

In a series of pictures, Amanda expertly handled her sheep and removed their thick woollen coats.

One follower said: “Well done Amanda! Goddess!”

Otro publicado: “Respeto, one the hardest jobs in farming and a major pain in the back.”

Un tercero escribió: “Well done super woman hurrah.”

Amanda explained how her rams were tougher to work with than the ewes, but for the most part, they behaved themselves.

Ella dijo: “The tups are a little more fiddly to deal with and a whole lot bigger and stronger.

“They were far better behaved than anticipated, behaved like true gents and were supremely patient whilst being manhandled.”

Last month it was revealed Amanda split from husband of 21 years Clive, 66, after ‘growing close to a cameraman’.

Following the separation, the mum-of-nine shared some details about herself fans may not have known.

Ahead of a country show, ella dijo: “I will tell you three things: I have a love of rave and dance music.

“I don’t have any neighbours so I can listen to it as loud as I like when the kids are out at school.”

Ella continuó: “I have a tattoo of a sheep – a tramp stamp!

“Once upon a time it was a very neat Swaledale but after nine children I’m bit stretched so it might not look so much like a sheep anymore…”
