Kaleb Cooper couldn’t resist poking fun at his Amazon Prime co-star Jeremy Clarkson following the TV presenter’s impressive weight loss. The lighthearted exchange took place just before the highly anticipated Cereals 2026 festival, held at Clarkson’s famous Diddly Squat Farm in the picturesque Cotswolds.
The annual festival, running June 10-11, is a key event in the farming calendar, bringing together industry experts, innovators, and enthusiasts to collaborate and discuss the future of agriculture. Clarkson’s Farm, the hit series on Amazon Prime, spotlighted Jeremy Clarkson alongside Kaleb Cooper and agronomist Charlie Ireland at the festival.
During a panel discussion featured in a video shared by Farmer’s Life, Kaleb reflected on the future of farming and the vital role of farmers. He remarked, “We need a farmer three times a day: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.” Then, with a cheeky grin, he added, “Well, you don’t because you don’t hardly eat anymore,” once again drawing laughter from Clarkson, Charlie, and the audience.

This witty comment clearly referenced Clarkson’s recent dramatic weight loss, reportedly aided by Mounjaro, a weight-loss injection. Earlier this year, Clarkson revealed he had been on the treatment for six months, shedding three stone in the process. Calling the drug “astonishing,” he explained how it dramatically suppressed his appetite, requiring a complete wardrobe overhaul—including new shoes due to shrinking feet.
Clarkson’s transformative weight loss comes after a serious health scare earlier in 2024 when he underwent heart surgery and had stents fitted following the discovery of blocked arteries. This health journey has been a significant focus for the presenter outside his farming and television work.
In related news, fans of Clarkson’s Farm saw a humorous but messy moment when Jeremy threatened to quit farming after an incident involving cow diarrhea during a calf castration scene. Covered in muck, Clarkson humorously declared, “I’m covered in diarrhoea! A cow’s s**t in my mouth!” before joking about escaping to London in a Bentley, much to viewers’ amusement.
Kaleb’s playful banter and the ongoing camaraderie among the Clarkson’s Farm cast continue to entertain fans alongside insightful glimpses into modern farming challenges and triumphs.
