Our Yorkshire Farm's Reuben Owen suffers 'disastrous setback' after sharing major relationship update with fans
Our Yorkshire Farm 's Reuben Owen suffered a 'disastrous setback' in the most recent episode of Reuben Owen: Life In The Dales after sharing a major relationship update with fans. Tuesday's instalment of the Channel 5 show saw the young farmer celebrate his 21st birthday with a trip to Whitby. Reuben, his girlfriend Jessica Ellwood and a group of his pals hopped on their tractors for a 100-mile trip to the seaside for his big day. However it didn't exactly go to plan. On the first day Reuben's vintage tractor started leaking, followed by a massive problem the next day of the trek as his vehicle broke down on the way as they travelled up a hill. Reuben said: 'It's not gone well for the old lass, I think this could be her final...' But his pal Tommy, who came to save him from the side of the road, said: 'I hope not! You might've killed it on its first run out. She was a good tractor.' The voice over said: 'It's a disastrous set back on day two, at this rate, Ruben's chances of making it to his own beach birthday party are looking slim.' To make matters worse it happened again later on. Reuben had to be towed up a hill and his girlfriend Jessica said: 'It's really, really struggling, is Reuben's tractor.' The voice over added: 'At this rate, chops on the beach tomorrow for Reuben are looking increasingly unlikely.' Reuben said: 'I don't know what's wrong with it! The water pump can't keep up.' Despite all the problems, they managed to make it to the seaside on their tractors. It comes after Reuben shared a rare relationship update. Reuben and Jess have been dating for just over a year - and it sounds like things are getting serious and would like to live together soon. He told The Mirror: 'We're just waiting for something to come up. 'I've got to try and get a nice place, get a bit of a farm somewhere one day.' He added: 'It would be ideal to have a farm where I can park my diggers and she [Jessica] can have her sheep and cows.' Speaking about starting a family, Reuben said: 'I don't think I fancy nine of them, I don't fancy nine at all. 'We'll have to wait and see.' Reuben shot to fame alongside his famous mum Amanda, 50, dad Clive, 70, and his eight other siblings on Our Yorkshire Farm. Amanda and Clive split in 2022 after 22 years of marriage. Amanda recently shared an update on her teenage son Miles after revealing a medical emergency which saw him rushed to hospital in an air ambulance. Back in 2022, Miles was airlifted to hospital after developing diabetic ketocaidosis (DKA) - a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones. And on the most recent episode of Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales, which aired on Tuesday, shepherdess Amanda and her son visited The Great North Air Ambulance Service. The pair reunited with the air ambulance service to thank them for their care of Miles at the time of his medical emergency as the teen opened up about the ordeal. Speaking about the episode, Amanda took to Instagram on Wednesday night to share a collection of pictures of Miles from his time in hospital and update fans on his health. 'I am exceptionally proud of Miles in wanting to share his diagnosis with people, raise awareness and show that his Diabetes Type 1 doesn't hamper him or define him,' she wrote. 'LOOK AT HIM NOW. 'We are aware that many people played a part in @milesowen86 medical emergency. Behind the scenes as the whole scenario played out there were random acts of kindness from strangers. 'We all wanted to reach out and express gratitude to the people who made a positive difference on what must surely be one of the most difficult days that no one can ever be prepared for. 'To find yourself in hospital in only the clothes you were standing up in, unprepared and in shock. 'Then to be given a sideroom in which to sleep where on the bed there is a Pumpkin Parent Pack. A bag that had been filled with overnight essentials for anyone with a child in intensive care. 'When at your most fragile this kind of thoughtfulness is a blessed kindness.' She continued: 'Also to Rangzaib who didn't flinch at taking me home, a four hour round trip from Middlesbrough to Ravenseat, on slippery roads, through ice and flurries of snow in his taxi for a nominal fee to cover fuel. 'He even went through drive through to buy me coffee ☕️. Not to mention ambulance control and crew. 'The helicopter pilot, �� the crash team �� & children's ward doctors and nurses at James Cooke. Hospital @nhsengland and our neighbour who brought the community defibrillator and was ready to use if required. These people are the best of the best. Back in 2022, Miles was airlifted to hospital after developing diabetic ketocaidosis (DKA) - a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones Recalling their time in hospital, Amanda posted pictures of Miles in his hospital bed as he received treatment 'I am very proud of all of the family & how everyone pulled together.' Amanda shared a sweet snap of her and Miles smiling as they sat in a car together, while in another he was seen back on the farm. Recalling their time in hospital, Amanda posted pictures of Miles in his hospital bed, as well as a picture of the ward decorated for Christmas and another of Miles and his sister. After spotting the helicopter in the sky, Amanda asked Miles: 'You don't remember any of it?' To which Miles shook his head and told his mum: 'No.' 'It's bringing it all back for me even though it's not you!' Amanda told her son. And just as the chopper landed, it all got too much for Amanda as she wiped away the tears from her face. Amanda said: 'I'm not crying! I'm not crying!' The most recent episode of Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales, which aired on Tuesday night on Channel 5, saw shepherdess Amanda and her son Miles (pictured) visit The Great North Air Ambulance Service Miles was airlifted to hospital after developing diabetic ketocaidosis (DKA) in 2022 - a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones Seeing the helicopter in the sky brought it all back to Amanda (pictured) as she said: 'I'm not crying! I'm not crying! The mother and son duo were then reunited with Dr Rachel and critical care paramedic Mike, who helped Miles on the day and flew to Ravenseat Farm when it happened. Amanda said: 'It's been a while hasn't it? Two years. 'Seeing you landing like that, it sort of brought it all back to me, really. Because, like I said, the last time I saw that land it was just like... you know.' What is diabetic ketoacidosis? Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones. DKA was first described in 1886 and, until the introduction of insulin therapy in the 1920s, it was almost universally fatal. Today the risk of death with adequate and timely treatment is currently around one to four per cent. Symptoms of a DKA episode include nausea and vomiting, pronounced thirst, excessive urine production and abdominal pain. According to figures just four per cent of people with type 1 diabetes develop DKA each year. Rachel asked Miles how he was getting on, to which he replied: 'Good, I was saying to mum, I can't remember it at all. I was so out of it.' Dr Rachel told him: 'You look a lot better than the last time we saw you!' Earlier on in the episode they replayed the call that Amanda and former husband Clive, 70, to the emergency services. Recalling what happened, Miles said: 'I felt awful all day. 'I didn't know what was up with me. 'Maybe it was something I was eating, maybe it was a bug, something like that, and then I was sick, I didn't know what was going on. 'I just thought Everyone is suck now and again. It's one of those things. 'Went to bed with no tea...' Amanda asked if he remembered waking up and he said: 'Vaguely.' Clive admitted it was 'one of the worst days of my life'. Speaking about what happened ahead of the episode, Amanda said on Instagram: 'Tonight's episode of Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales is a challenging one. 'It has taken until now to share what happened in December 2022 when there was a big medical emergency on the farm. 'Miles wanted to share what happened to him to hopefully raise awareness of Type 1 diabetes and Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) which is a potentially life-threatening acute complication. 'Do tune in at 8pm on Channel 5 for an uplifting glimpse of how in difficult circumstances and locations individuals can change the narrative of a story and save lives.' Many rushed to Instagram to share their love and support after Miles opened up about what happened in 2022 Many rushed to the comments section to share the love. 'This is so brave and honest of Miles to share this on tv. I am diabetic too and sometimes I think diabetes is so misunderstood especially by people who don't suffer from it nor have anyone close to them with it.' 'well done Miles for sharing. I don't think Diabetes is taken as seriously as it should be x.' 'It's great to see Miles share this and thank you all, it's a hideously worrying event that for most of us is thankfully infrequent, but no less worrying when this happens.' 'The Air Ambulance is such an important part of rural communities.' 'Thank you for sharing. Bless you all, such a beautiful family!!!! Sending lots of love ❤️ xx.' Amanda and ex Clive are not just parents to Miles. The former couple, who split in 2022 after 22 years of marriage, are parents to nine kids. They are also proud parents to Raven, 23, Reuben, 21, Edith, 16, Violet, 14, Sidney, 13, Annas, 11, Clemmy, nine, and Nancy, eight. The family shot to fame on Our Yorkshire Farm back on Channel 4, which aired between 2018 and 2022. Spin-off Our Farm Next Door landed on our screens last year and has already had two series.
