Reuben Owen may be back on screens with Reuben: Life in the Dales, but away from the cameras, his real life is just as compelling — split between a fast-growing business and a romance that has quietly captured fans’ attention.

At just 22, the son of Our Yorkshire Farm star Amanda Owen has already built an impressive path for himself. Rather than chasing a full-time TV career, Reuben has focused on growing his own company, taking on everything from drainage work to heavy-duty landscaping projects across the countryside.

His business has rapidly gone from strength to strength, with the young entrepreneur regularly sharing updates from tough job sites. In one moment that left followers stunned, Reuben revealed his team had laid 900 metres of pipe in just a single day — across difficult, boggy terrain — proving just how serious his work has become.

But while his professional life is thriving, it’s his personal life that’s sparking just as much interest.

Reuben is now in a relationship with fellow farmer Jessica Ellwood, whom he met at a Young Farmers’ event in 2024. Since going public, the pair have shared glimpses into their relationship — working side by side on the farm, travelling together, and documenting quiet, romantic moments.

Earlier this year, Reuben shared a heartfelt post during a Valentine’s getaway, calling Jess “my love” and writing “love you so much,” a rare glimpse into his softer side that fans didn’t expect.

Jess, who works on her family’s large farm filled with livestock, appears to be the perfect match for Reuben’s grounded lifestyle. Their shared passion for farming has only strengthened their bond, with many fans already speculating that their relationship could be heading somewhere serious.

Before Jess, Reuben had been in a long-term relationship with Sarah Dow, but the pair split in 2024. Speaking openly at the time, he explained that while they had gone their separate ways, they remained “very good friends,” showing a level of maturity beyond his years.

Despite his rising fame, Reuben has made it clear he has no intention of relying on television long-term. Instead, he remains focused on building his business and staying true to the rural life he grew up in.

At just 22, Reuben Owen is already balancing two very different worlds — and somehow, making both look effortless.
