Liz has been getting stuck into farming life on her husband’s BBC series alongside their two children
Liz has been seen getting stuck into farming life, from preparing sheep for the Ashbourne Show in Derbyshire to helping her husband pick some alpacas to add to their flock of farm animals.

Since the show launched, the couple has revealed they are expecting twins, younger siblings for daughter Marnie, five, and son Milo, three.

Their growing brood and life on the farm has lead some to brand Liz ‘the new Amanda Owen’, after the Our Yorkshire Farm star.

Amanda famously lives in Ravenseat with husband Clive and their nine children and document their life on the hit Channel 5 series.

During a recent appearance on Kate Thornton’s podcast White Wine Question Time, Kate said: “I tell you what else I’ve noticed that’s happened.

“Liz, tell me if you’ve felt the vibes, but I mentioned to a couple of people this week that we were chatting.

“Obviously, people are able to follow your adventures on BBC every week with the show. Men started swooning, a bit like they did with Amanda the Shepherd.”

She continued: “There was a lot of ‘Oh my God that Liz, she’s amazing’.”

Liz could be heard laughing and said: “Is there?”

Kate replied: “It’s like you’re a country pillar,” and a shocked Liz said: “I haven’t seen it.”

She then joked to her husband: “Kelvin, you better watch out, I mean I will take it but I’m not feeling the sexiest right now, so I will take it.”
