Outspoken star Jeremy Clarkson has revealed his softer side by talking about his happiness with girlfriend Lisa Hogan.
Jezza said they have a “lovely, lovely time” together.
There was already some very public evidence of this – the couple were recently spotted smooching in the street.
The pair feature in new TV show Clarkson’s Farm, which follows his attempt to run a farm.
In a new interview, he described Lisa as “ageless” and joked she “looks about 12”.
He added: “I get older and older and it makes people go ‘oh, that’s a bit weird’.
“But we are age and height appropriate, and we have a lovely, lovely time together on that farm, we really do.”
Jeremy, 61, is 6ft 5in while Lisa, who is thought to be 51, is 6ft 2in.
Jezza added: “Lisa and I were at the lambing parlour and they had just been born and it had gone pretty well.
"We were sitting there with a bottle of rosé and it was a beautiful evening, and I thought ‘I’ve never been happier at work than this’.”
Speaking on the Andy Jaye show on talkRADIO, Jeremy added: “She describes me as chaotic and brilliant in the show but she normally calls me a lot worse than that.
“Lisa’s role in the programme is really to roll her eyes at me.”
The couple were pictured sharing a kiss in Central London after an event to launch the new Amazon Prime Video series.
The Grand Tour host Jeremy got divorced for the second time in 2014.
BEHIND THE NEWS - talkRADIO'S Andy Jaye, who interviewed Jeremy Clarkson
When I interview people, I make it my business to be an expert on my guest, but I never actually plan my questions. I think it’s my research and planning about the celebrity themselves that really draws them in. They don’t expect me to know as much as I do about them – and they seem to find it a compliment.’
There have been countless occasions when a ten-minute interview booking has turned into an hour, and we’ve ended up having a really deep chat – with my guests often telling me things they say they haven’t ever said anywhere else. I find it really flattering, to have that level of trust, I think it’s because I’m not looking for a headline, I’m just connecting with them.’
I’ve been genuinely taken by surprise when the likes of Suzanne Shaw told me that she regretted being in the band HearSay, or Jenson Button shared his vasectomy plans, Richard Hammond told me that at 52 he was possibly having a mid-life crisis, and Professor Green talked about the impact being a father has had on him, and reflected also on his near-death experiences. There are plenty of times when I feel very close to my guests, and I always want to find out more.
The Andy Jaye show is on Talk Radio on Saturday at 4pm and The Andy Jaye Podcast series is available now. Visit https://shows.acast.com/driven-celebrities for more.
