Television presenter Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.<\/p>\n
The news was announced in an episode of the latest series of Clarkson’s Farm, released on Wednesday. It is not clear exactly when the footage was filmed, but the series was shot in 2024 and 2025.<\/p>\n
Clarkson, 66, is seen telling series regulars Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland of his diagnosis, both of whom were visibly shocked by the news.<\/p>\n
The former Top Gear presenter did not clarify what stage of cancer he had been diagnosed with, but described it as “aggressive” and that a portion of his prostate had been removed as part of his treatment. <\/p>\n
“I disappeared off the other week and I had a biopsy, and it is cancer, and it’s aggressive, but it’s really early,” he said.<\/p>\n
Clarkson added that he had known “since May”.<\/p>\n
“I promise I’ll be fine,” he told the two men, adding that he would be out of action “for a little while”.<\/p>\n
Cooper told Clarkson to “look after yourself” while Ireland added: “I wish you a very speedy recovery.”<\/p>\n
In a separate discussion with Cooper in the following episode, Clarkson confirmed the type of cancer, telling him: “The prostate, 10% of it is dead, the 10% where the cancer is.”<\/p>\n
Later, Clarkson told co-star Gerald: “I had the op, and just fingers crossed it’s worked, we don’t know yet.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Television presenter Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.
