Amanda Owen stunned fans by sharing photos of two of her sons with horses on their family farm at the weekend – and they couldn't believe how much the boys had grown.
The Yorkshire Shepherdess posted photos of her sons Reuben and Miles with a Shire horse at Ravenseat Farm on Saturday, and many of her followers commented on how tall 19-year-old Reuben looked in particular.
"There's horsepower @reubenowen74 @tommy.mcwhirter. And there's horsepower. Mine doesn't have a fuel vaporisation issue," Amanda captioned the photos.
"Wow Miles has shot up, looks more like his brother now," one fan commented, while another asked: "How tall do you have to be to make a shire look like a pony?"
A third wrote: "Blimey Reuben makes your horse look small and I know he isn't!!"
Mother-of-nine Amanda recently returned to Instagram after a six-week break to reveal the family had enjoyed birthday celebrations for her son Miles and spent time with their animals while basking in the sunshine.

In a heartfelt interview with The Telegraph, Amanda spoke about her current living arrangements, saying: "Sometimes I'm there, sometimes he's there, sometimes he's working away, sometimes I'm working away. We just have to make it fit." Amanda then quipped: "There's enough room, believe me."
Meanwhile, Clive has defended his ex-wife after she became the subject of online abuse following their split. Speaking about the couple's separation, he told Lorraine host Christine Lampard: "I handled it very badly, it was such a change in our life and I sadly made a right mess of things and I had a massive part to play in our relationship ending, a massive part to play."
