The 46-year-old has apparently lost enthusiasm for tilling fields and rearing cattle and decided to take this step under the influence of fiance Australian cricketer Shane Warne.

After moving almost full-time to her 400-acre estate at Ampney Knowle, Gloucestershire in 2003, she boasted of the virtues of country living.

But now, she has brought in contract farmers to run the farm. She is also selling off her rare-breed Gloucester Old Spot pigs and Gloucestershire cows.

“The contract farmer will do everything and Liz will not be directly involved now. She is giving up the good life,” a local source said.
