Clarkson’s Farm star Kaleb Cooper has revealed what his relationship with Jeremy Clarkson is really like behind the scenes.
The 26-year-old farmer shot to fame on the Prime Video series, where his bickering with the former Top Gear presenter, 64, attracted more attention than farming life itself.
In a new interview, Kaleb admits that while viewers get what they see, only “40 percent” of the duo’s rows are actually on screen.
Kaleb talked about their relationship: The sun: Everything you see on camera is also everything you see behind the scenes. I mean, yeah, we still argue and I think they probably only show 40 percent of the arguments that we actually have.
‘But the main thing is that if we have a fight, ten minutes later we’re best friends again. We’ll say, “Do you want a cup of tea? Do you want to go to the pub? Do you want to go somewhere for dinner?”‘

Kaleb added that their ability to resolve their differences and move on with their lives is, in his opinion, “the key to a good relationship.”
Kaleb, who has published books and staged his own live tour since his stint on the show, spoke of his gratitude to the Grand Tour star for introducing him to the world of television and showbiz, calling him his “hero.”
He shared, “I mean, I thank him by teaching him a few things about farming. I’m grateful to him for putting me on screen, and hopefully we teach each other things along the way. Yeah, he’s my hero and he’s on my hero list and he’s taught me so much about television and hopefully I teach him a lot about farming.”
Kaleb added that there was “no one better” to learn from than Jeremy himself.
On Clarkson’s Farm, Jeremy, Kaleb and their gang struggle with the day-to-day challenges of running his 1,000-acre Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds countryside.
The first two series, released in June 2021 and February 2023, were an instant success thanks to the strong personalities of Kaleb and Jeremy.
The third season focuses on the challenges on the farm, such as plans to open a restaurant being shut down due to local government bureaucracy, and introducing pigs to increase income.
Clarkson’s Farm is estimated to be worth £55 million. In the new series, he invests in new ways to make money.
In a new interview, Kaleb admits that while viewers get what they see, only “40 percent” of the duo’s rows are actually on screen.
“Everything you see on camera is also everything you see behind the scenes. I mean, yeah, we still have discussions and I think they probably only show 40 percent of the discussions that we actually have.”

This came after Kaleb left fans laughing when he ignored the NTAs on stage at the 2024 awards ceremony at the O2 Arena in London on Wednesday night.
During the award ceremony, the farmer once again won the hearts of the country. The audience was impressed by his transformative appearance and irresistible charm.
He swapped his muddy gloves and practical work clothes for a striking black tuxedo suit, which he paired with a crisp white shirt.
But as the much-loved star read out the nominees for the award – namely Ant & Dec, Bradley Walsh, Alison Hammond, Bradley Walsh, Claudia Winkleman and Stacey Solomon – he immediately hit out at the show.
When the star presented the award, he joked: ‘National Tractor Awards’ instead of National Television Awards.
And fans couldn’t get enough of him, as they loved that he gave a nod to his roots and British farming culture, rather than focusing on the usual world of showbiz glitz.
Fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, were raving about the TV star.
