Our Yorkshire Farm’s Reuben Owen admits he “upset” people and was pulled over by police during his recent trip to France.
The Reuben: Life in the Dales star opened up about his first trip abroad with his ex Sarah Dow and other Channel 5 co-star Tommy. He told Lorraine Kelly: “My favourite part of the holiday was driving my Land Rover in France. I loved it.”
“It made me think of those old episodes of Top Gear when they go across a country in a slightly knackered vehicle. That’s what it felt like. The old Land Rover never let us down, the French motorways were lovely, and you cruise along with all the French people looking on. They don’t see very many Land Rovers over there.”

But the adventure took a dodgy turn, as Reuben confessed to a blunder on the road. “I think I upset some police people,” he said. “I was basically on the wrong side of the road.
“I heard the sirens coming and I thought I would get myself off the road but because it’s the opposite of what it is over here, I ended up just getting more in their way.”
“So I was pulled over and told off by a French policeman. I think it was caught on camera with us all in the Land Rover, so it’ll be aired on TV. I apologised to the French police. I didn’t know what I was doing!”.
Reuben also revealed that he and Sarah have split. He said: “Me and Sarah were together, we’re no longer together but we’re still very good friends.”, reports the Express.
Romance between Reuben and Sarah blossomed after they connected through their co-star Tommy. Sarah spilled the beans on Beyond The Yorkshire Farm about her first encounter with Reuben, crediting Tommy for the introduction. “I met Reuben through Tommy, actually. We just got on really well and he taught me some stuff.”
She’s also gearing up for an engineering course at college, feeling confident thanks to her newfound knowledge: “I’m going to do an engineering course at college and I feel like I could adapt some of this towards that because I kind of know a bit about the machines now.”
