Jeremy Clarkson, known for his love of fast cars and controversial opinions, has recently taken on a new venture - farming. His journey has been documented in the popular series, Clarkson's Farm. However, amidst the trials and tribulations of running a farm, Jeremy has faced a heartbreaking decision - sending one of his beloved animals, cow Pepper, to an abattoir.
The 63-year-old star, who purchased a plot of land in the Cotswolds and established his Diddly Squat farm, has been left devastated by the loss of Pepper. In the previous season, Jeremy had taken a liking to Pepper after being asked by Rosie, the five-year-old daughter of her previous owner, to look after her. But in the upcoming third season, Jeremy and his farm manager Kaleb Cooper decide to rear pigs, meaning some of his cows, including Pepper, have to be sent away.
Sharing his emotions, Jeremy says, "I'm finding today really quite sad. Pepper is going, obviously - what do you think will become of her?" This decision goes against his previous vow to let Pepper continue to enjoy the greener pastures of his farm. In the past, when someone suggested sending Pepper for meat, Jeremy had firmly stated, "I'm not eating Pepper, and that's the end of it."
The loss of Pepper is not the only heartache Jeremy faces on his farm. In the third season, many of the pigs he purchased also start dying, leaving Jeremy and his partner Lisa Hogan in tears. Recalling the events, Jeremy says, "It was very heartbreaking. I'd never seen Lisa in tears until that all started." The pigs died "in alarming numbers," causing immense pain and sadness for the couple. However, as they continue to face challenges on the farm, they have become stronger and more resilient.
Despite the difficulties, Jeremy remains passionate about his farm and the animals he cares for. His dedication to running a successful farm is evident in the upcoming season. But with the highs, there are also lows, as Jeremy faces the loss of several animals, including Pepper. The third season of Clarkson's Farm premieres this week, and fans can expect to see a more emotional side of the former Top Gear star as he navigates the challenges of farming.
