AMANDA Owen has broken her social media silence after concerned fans of Our Yorkshire Farm spotted a "family member" was missing.
Many viewers of the popular Channel 5 series admitted they were keen for an update on sheepdog Kate as she hadn't been seen for a long time on the shepherdess' Instagram page.
Amanda, 47, immediately replied to the concerned fan to explain that border collie Kate had just been taking a break from her work duties. "How's Kate?
