Amanda Owen returned to TV after more than two years away this week and immediately viewers were shocked by the mum-of-nine's radical transformation.
The Yorkshire Shepherdess rose to fame as the matriarch of Channel 5's surprise hit , which showed the reality of life on a working farm in the remote Yorkshire Dales.
, along with her husband Clive Owen (now separated), and their brood of nine children from little Clemmie, Edith and Annas up to Reuben and Raven, all became famous in their own right as the show brought the challenges of Ravenseat to a wide audience.
The programme was axed following Amanda and Clive's separation in 2022 but now the whole family has returned in new Channel 4 series
And in the first episode, viewers were amazed at how good 'beautiful' Amanda Owen looks after a radical transformation in her time off screen.
Fans of the family said Amanda has lost weight and the kids have all grown up too.
@heragkop said: "Amanda must burn off more calories in a day than an Olympic athlete. She must run/walk/lift the equivalent of a decathlete every day."
@katiewebb62 said: "Watched it tonight and was absolutely brilliant so lovely to see you and your gorgeous family back. Amanda you look very beautiful and so full of interesting wisdom."
@lauramay69 said: "So happy to see you all. Waited a long time for this. Looking amazing Amanda."
@hammondmargitta said: "Loved tonight episode. Amanda did well in explaining about her and Clive which started the new series well. I do think Amanda has lost a lot of weight but under the circumstances I guess no wonder. I'm sure it is going to be a great watch and I wish the Owen family well."
@bob.bell710 said: "the last few months/years have taken it out of Amanda it is clear to see, it is going to be a great series watching how they restore the house and delve into the history, good to see them all involved in the project and that there is still chemistry between Amanda and Clive. Next episode please."
The series will chart the family's progress in rebuilding Anty John's, an old farm house that Amanda and Clive are hoping to turn into a permanent home for their family, despite having separated.
Viewers saw Amanda consult with builders, Reuben digging, and a historian unearthed the legacy of the building's importance in the Ravenseat area.
