Countryfile presenter Adam Henson has been inundated with supportive messages following his announcement of thrilling developments at his farm.

The television personality and agriculturalist, who resides on the 650-hectare Cotswolds Farm Park estate alongside his wife, Charlie, turned to Instagram to update his supporters.

Accompanied by a charming video clip, Adam revealed he has welcomed a fresh arrival to his farming operation. He penned: "I recently picked up our Suffolk".

"Punch mare Lexy from the Holbeache Stud. Met some amazing horses and left with exciting news," reports Gloucestershire Live.

The presenter wrapped up his message by hinting, "New episode coming soon, stay tuned." Adam received an avalanche of responses from his admirers, with numerous people remarking on how "lovely" the horse appeared.

One enthusiast posted: "Beautiful Horses With Big Gentle Hearts."

Another wrote, "Lovely Adam," while a third added, "Terrific that these magnificent breeds are being saved."

Someone else remarked: "Beautiful news."

Another continued: "Beauts - you've done a fabulous job at bringing them back into the news and supporting them."

During a prior discussion, Adam contemplated his prospects on the farm and confessed that, since his offspring show no enthusiasm for assuming control, he will depart when the tenancy expires.

The Countryfile host explained they will establish their residence in a neighbouring bungalow as their children harbour no intentions of pursuing his career path. In an interview with the Daily Express newspaper, he explained: "My dad was ahead of his time by opening a farm for people to come and visit, bottle-feed a lamb or hold a chick.

"While I was pulling on my wellies and chasing my dad out of the door to join him on the farm, my own children aren't interested in a career in farming.

"Sure, they can lamb a sheep and drive a tractor, but my daughter lives in Perth as an events organiser and my son is a financial advisor in Leeds."

He added: "So when the tenancy runs out in 12 years' time, Charlie and I are moving to a bungalow close by in Winchcombe, where we have a few acres and will keep a few sheep and the dogs.

"It will be the end of an era, but I will still be able to enjoy the lovely countryside."
