Our Yorkshire Farm 's Amanda Owen fans pointed out a 'precarious' safety hazard in the star's recent post of her youngest daughters swimming in river.
The 50-year-old shares Raven, 23, Reuben, 21, Miles, 18, Edith, 16, Violet, 14, Sidney, 13, Annas, 11, Clemmy, nine, and Nancy, eight with ex Clive Owen, 70, who she split from in 2022 after 22 years of marriage.
Shepherdess Amanda took to her Instagram to share some snaps of her youngest having a splash in a bid to cool themselves down during the heatwave.
Captioning the post, she said: 'Beating the heat by heading to cool, shady dubs.
'It's not all about the swim, the immersion is not just in the water but in the surroundings.
'Ducklings, butterflies, pond skaters and brown trout rising and the buzz of insects amongst the overhang of bilberry.
'Not a nature reserve, a farm.'
But one person pointed out in the comments section: 'Is no one going to mention the precarious fence!'
In a number of the snaps there is a rusted fence hanging above them on the hill, at seemingly quite a steep angle.
Despite that, others rushed to thank her for sharing some wholesome content.
'I am so grateful that you share so much beauty and so many precious scenes. Thank you for every post.'
'Looks great up in Swaledale.'
'Looks very inviting.'
'I'd love to live like this with my kids.'
'Perfect childhood!'
It comes just days after Amanda announced her epic career change away from Ravenseat Farm.
The star, who is best known for appearing in TV show Our Yorkshire Farm, is set to bring out her own children's books.
Christmas Tales From The Farm, illustrated by Becca Hall, will be out in September and is written for eight to 12-year-olds.
Speaking about her new project, Amanda said: 'I am absolutely delighted to have been given the opportunity to enter the world of children's books with renowned publishers, Puffin.
'As a mother myself I know firsthand the joy that books can bring to young readers and how a book can stay with you into adulthood, take you places and open up new worlds.'
She added: 'To be taken under the wing of the Puffin family, publishers of some of my childhood favourites, is something that I could never have dreamed of being possible.'
The TV favourite also took to Instagram to share the news.
She said: 'I wanted to share with you the news of the latest addition to the farm... nope, not another woolly bundle of joy, no, it's my new children's book!
'What's it about you ask? What else could it be about other than the farm, the animals, children, nature, countryside and it's published by Puffin.
'And it's going to be out on 11th September.'
