Clarkson's Farm star Kaleb Cooper's foul-mouthed response to police after run-in
Former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson has revealed how his Clarkson's Farm colleague Kaleb Cooper launched a foul-mouthed jibe at officers following a recent encounter.
US vice president JD Vance's recent visit to the area sparked outrage among some residents in the peaceful town of Chipping Norton. WhilsE some locals voiced their political opposition to his trip, Kaleb's fury stemmed from entirely different circumstances.
Writing in his latest The Sunday Times column, Jeremy Clarkson detailed how the politician was given a police escort while travelling through the local vicinity.
Describing how officers were tasked with moving people aside as the convoy passed through town, Jeremy recounted how his Clarkson's Farm co-star Kaleb was amongst those affected.
Reflecting on how events transpired, Jeremy revealed: "One of the people they ordered to pull over was Kaleb Cooper, my tractor driver, but it was starting to rain and he urgently needed to get his load of wheat into the shed, so he invited his tormentor to eff off. And carried on regardless."
Following the incident, Kaleb expressed his frustration by responding to one of Jeremy's Instagram posts, explaining what had occurred.
He commented: "My wheat got wet in the trailer last night as the convo(y) stopped me in the rain in chippy. I could have easily went on my way and got it in the shed without getting in the way."
In brighter news for the 27-year-old farmer, he celebrated the arrival of his third child with partner Taya on Thursday (August 14). Having popped the question almost three years ago, Ashton has become the pair's newest addition.
Announcing the joyful news on Instagram, Kaleb penned: "Baby number 3. everyone meet Ashton weighing 6.13lb born 14th august at 6:28pm at chipping norton maternity. Ps don't worry I bought the amazing midwife's a Chinese as well."
While Kaleb voiced his own concerns about being affected by the politician's entourage, the Clarkson's Farm favourite wasn't the only resident to express their frustration.
In Charlbury, near to his accommodation, demonstrators organised the "Vance Not Welcome Party" courtesy of local "Everybody Hates Elon" and "Stop Trump Coalition" organisations.
However, some residents were delighted by his visit, with newly confirmed Strictly contestant and former Apprentice star Tom Skinner receiving an invitation to the vice-president's holiday residence following their previous social media exchanges.
Following their get together at Vance's retreat earlier this week, Tom posted on X expressing his appreciation: "Unreal night with JD and his friends and family."
He continued: "He was a proper gent. Lots of laughs and some fantastic food. A brilliant night, one to tell the grand kids about."

Katie Price's ex Alex Reid is 'spearheading a campaign' to take her down
Katie Price's ex-husband of one year Alex Reid is speaking out against the former glamour model in an incredibly dramatic fashion days after Peter Andre did the same. The mum-of-five, 47, started dating Alex hot off the heels from her split with Mysterious Girl hitmaker Peter, and they tied the knot in a Las Vegas ceremony in 2010. However, after just a year of marriage Alex and Katie called it quits. After Peter posted a shock statement on social media days ago accusing Katie of peddling lies for 16 years, Alex is taking a similar step and has announced he is 'spearheading a campaign' against her. 'Over the years you've seen countless stories by Katie Price directed at me, Peter Andre, Kieran Hayler, and others,' he said in a video posted on social media this evening. 'I am spearheading a campaign to expose the truth. This isn't about gossip, it's about evidence. It isn't about rumour, it's about reality. 'After years of silence the time has finally come to reveal all. This is bigger than one person. It's about honesty, accountability, and supporting those that have been silenced. 'The time for speculation is over. The truth will now be seen and heard.' This comes after a report yesterday that Katie is planning on releasing a three-part personal documentary to coincide with the 30-year anniversary of her becoming one of The Sun's page 3 models. A source told The Mirror that Alex and Kieran Hayler – who was with Katie from 2013 to March 2021 – are teaming up with lawyers to block her from featuring them on the show. A source told The Mirror: 'They feel like they have been backed into a corner and have no choice. 'They just want her to stop trashing them, and can't believe she is being given a platform.' Another source, close to Kieran, said that 'enough is enough' and the men are just looking to move on with their lives but 'can't trust anything' that Katie says. A spokesman for Kieran added: 'We are keeping all our options open. I can confirm Alex Reid is on the same page.' The outlet reported that they have been in contact via an intermediary over the documentary, which is being made by Louis Theroux's production company Mindhouse. It's due to be aired by Sky but lawyers for the pair are said to be urging the broadcaster to reconsider. Last week Kieran – who is dad to Katie's youngest kids Bunny, 11, and Jett, 12 – issued a public apology to Princess after she admitted: 'I wish I could have had a happier childhood.' Meanwhile, days ago Peter spoke out on Instagram with a cutting statement about his ex-wife Katie, who he met on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here in 2004. 'For sixteen years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today,' Peter said. He continued: 'The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. 'For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. 'In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children. More Trending 'In 2011 and 2015, publicly documented court cases, found my ex-wife had made false claims. She was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise, to me and my management. The same falsehoods are being repeated today. 'Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations I have yet to address. Those will now be dealt with in the coming months.' In a statement to Metro, Katie's representative said in response: 'Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation, this was in the past and she doesn't feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments, but more importantly she's dealing with this the right way and it's now in her lawyers hands. 'Kate will no longer be gaslighted and bullied as she once was…' Got a story?

She penned: "Had the most amazing holiday in Spain I shed a tear on the morning of the last day because Ezra isn't going to be this little again next time we go away. Who even am I? !
