Reuben Owen's girlfriend shares true feelings about his family
Jessica, who hails from a neighbouring family farm, has known Reuben her whole life, but only began dating the star of Channel 5 show Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales eight months ago Reuben Owen's girlfriend has opened up about their blossoming relationship and her fondness for his famous family on his Channel 5 reality show. Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales showcases the young entrepreneur as he tackles the refurbishment of his Thwaite cottage, co-owned with his dad Clive, among other ventures in the Dales. One part of the TV show highlighted Reuben teaming up with his girlfriend Jessica, who comes from a nearby farming family, on a project. He called upon Jessica's skills to help design and construct a sheep pen at a substantial farm. After setting out the initial designs for the pen, the couple each took charge of a digger to begin the groundwork. In a heartfelt confession to the camera, Jessica beamed as she spoke about her eight-month relationship with Reuben, whom she met at a young farmers' event, reports the Manchester Evening News. "Ever since we first met, we just clicked. I think it's because I'm from a farming background, so's Reuben," she told the audience. The 21-year-old farmer then gushed over her beau and his kin, who are known from their appearances on Our Yorkshire Farm. Jessica expressed: "I just love him to bits. Love his family, get on great with them." Reuben echoed Jessica's warm feelings, later revealing his thoughts on their partnership and commending his girlfriend's agricultural talents. Reuben said: "Me and Jess have been together a while now. We're always working together on all sorts of different things. She's absolutely brilliant on any piece of kit, really." He cheekily continued: "I haven't found anything that's beaten her, yet!" In one episode of the Channel 5 programme viewers witness Reuben beginning his cottage restoration venture, leaving him stunned by the enormity of the challenge alongside his pals. The property, purchased as a shared venture with his dad Clive, has had its renovation schemes put on hold owing to Reuben's thriving business commitments. Reuben revealed he has no plans to live in the cottage himself, instead aiming to flog it so he can snap up another property.

Our Yorkshire Farm's Reuben faces 'really bad' setback with girlfriend Jess
Reuben Owen, star of Our Yorkshire Farm, was back on our screens as he continued to oversee the expansion of his heavy plant machinery business in the secluded Yorkshire Dales Our Yorkshire Farm's Reuben Owen encountered a "really bad" hiccup with his girlfriend Jess on Tuesday (July 8). The second series of Reuben's show, 'Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales', is currently gracing screens on Channel 5. The docuseries captures Reuben as he develops his burgeoning heavy plant machinery enterprise amidst the stunning backdrop of the Yorkshire Dales, with his family and mates by his side. In the latest episode, the onset of spring brought a flurry of activity to the Dales. The crew set out to tackle Reuben's hefty order of cropped stones, finishing a hundred tonnes by hand in an old quarry before heading to a local family-run stone merchant for some expert advice, reports the Manchester Evening News. At the same time, Reuben's partner Jess was swamped with work due to the start of lambing season at her family's farm. Trouble struck when Reuben and Jess, while navigating the fields, spotted a newborn lamb in urgent need of attention. "I don't think that ewe is letting that lamb suck, she keeps turning when he's trying to suck," noted Jess. They quickly examined the lamb to determine if it had been feeding properly and whether it required further care. "This lamb was born about an hour ago, and he hasn't sucked. He's got cold and just laid and shivered. She hasn't really licked him either," Jess detailed as she tended to the lamb. In a race against time, Jess and Reuben rushed to save a lamb as the distressed ewe's newborn desperately needed its first milk to survive. Reuben stressed the significance saying: "This will be the most important meal of his life." Jess urgently pointed out that the lamb had to get the colostrum swiftly because it's packed with essential antibodies from the mother. Without it, she warned, the young one could fall prey to the potentially fatal watery mouth disease. With palpable relief, Jess announced the success: "Once his belly's full then it'll be great. I was panicked because I thought if she goes in there with sixty sheep, they won't know who she is." Reuben praised Jess for her quick thinking and lifesaving actions, affectionately praising: "That's another little life saved, well done darling." After ensuring the lamb was well fed, Jess made sure it was dry and warm indoors, in preparation to rejoin the flock outdoors.

Reuben Owen opens up on meeting new girlfriend ahead of series debut
Reuben Owen has opened up about his relationship with girlfriend Jessica Ellwood ahead of the launch of his new Channel 5 series Reuben Owen, notable from Our Yorkshire Farm, has candidly shared details about his romance with girlfriend Jessica Ellwood as they gear up for his latest Channel 5 venture. The 21-year-old found fame on the family show Our Yorkshire Farm with his parents, Amanda and Clive Owen, alongside his eight siblings. Following appearances on Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids, Reuben is set to grace TV screens again in the new series of Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales. This series will document Reuben's endeavours to establish his own enterprise with his friends' support. The upcoming second season will introduce viewers to Jessica, also 21, who will be joining her boyfriend on television for the first time. Jessica comes from a farming background similar to Reuben's, and it seems their common passion for agriculture has brought them closer together, reports Leeds Live. Speaking of their connection, Reuben revealed that their paths crossed at a Young Farmers' event, and they've been inseparable ever since. "Jess is so happy and chilled out," he expressed to the Telegraph. "We met at a Young Farmers' event, and it was the biggest stroke of luck. She's not bothered by the filming, either, which is great; the telly thing brings a bit of money into the pot, which is useful." Additionally, Reuben cannot help but laud Jessica's adeptness in agriculture, especially noting her knack for handling a digger like a pro. In an interview with the Mirror, the young farmer opened up about their bustling life amidst the pastoral setting. "Last weekend we were felling trees. In terms of our hobbies, I think digging," he remarked. "Jess is very good on the digger. She's better at driving a digger than I am milking cows." Despite his forays into television, Reuben has confessed that he has no aspirations for fame and avoids social media, choosing instead to concentrate on the farm and expanding his business. Reuben's home life is equally bustling. He is one of nine siblings, with parents Amanda and Clive, who parted ways in 2022 after two decades of marriage, also raising Raven, Miles, Edith, Violet, Sidney, Annas, Clementine, and Nancy.
