Clarkson's Farm star Lisa Hogan shares ‘hilarious' birthday message to partner Jeremy Clarkson
Lisa Hogan, the partner of presenter Jeremy Clarkson, has shared a cheeky message to the Clarkson's Farm star on his birthday.
The former Top Gear and Grand Tour host is celebrating his 65th birthday on Friday (11 April), drawing tributes from his many friends and loved ones.
But Hogan, 51, took a different approach and decided to poke some fun at her partner in an unsentimental dedication on her social media.
'Congratulations for Finally achieving those Three Little Letters!' she wrote in a post on Instagram.
'After five and a half decades of service to King & country, and indeed across this fine globe, I'm so proud, & frankly astonished, you've earned Jeremy Clarkson OAP. Happy Birthday @jeremyclarkson1.'
The comments were flooded with people laughing at the message with one person writing: 'Hilarious - I genuinely thought I was going to see MBE or OBE.'
Another added: 'Absolutely diabolical caption from Lisa. Happy birthday Clarkson.'
Clarkson and Hogan, an Irish born actor and screenplay writer, have been together since 2017.
Hogan co-founded the Diddly Squat Farm shop and is expected to star in the fourth series of the hit Amazon Prime series, Clarkson's Farm. The new season will be released in May.
She is also publishing her first book, Animals and Other Eeejits, which will also be released later this year. It will take readers through a year in the life of the 'nation's favourite farm'. It will give an insight into life on the popular farm, following the journey from lambing season to harvest.
It will also follow Hogan as she attempts to disrupt the mushroom market while navigating red tape and tractor mishaps.
'Barely a day goes by at Diddly Squat without a brilliant or bizarre adventure,' she said. 'I'm so excited to share this book of revelations, tips and trip-ups. It tells the story of a year of crops, breeding, overalls and offspring on the farm, where bale twine is as valuable as a Wall Street commodity.
'It's been a joy to write and I'm thrilled to be working with the good people at Penguin Random House to bring it into the world.'

"I was already on this steady trajectory of change and I was thinking about where I wanted my career to go, and when the BBC decided they didn't want to commission the show anymore, it really did kind of solidify everything for me, and it made me dig my heels in and think 'OK, I know where I want to be'."

Wedding guest dressing has turned tacky thanks to celebs like Georgia Steel – boob-bursting dresses belong in Benidorm
There's a big emerging trend on the high street this wedding season that creates a sense of elegance - without having to have your boobs and bum out WHAT THE FROCK? Wedding guest dressing has turned tacky thanks to celebs like Georgia Steel – boob-bursting dresses belong in Benidorm WEARING white as a wedding guest used to be a cardinal sin and the ultimate insult to the bride. But nowadays there's a far worse style crime. Advertisement 8 Kim Kardashian sported a cleavage-baring gown paired with strappy heels at her former assistant's wedding Credit: Mega 8 Kendall Jenner wore a barely-there cut-out black gown to her pal's wedding Credit: laurenperez/Instagram 8 At Hailey and Justin Bieber's wedding, fans accused Kylie Jenner of trying to steal the bride's limelight by wearing a gold, floor-sweeping gown Credit: Instagram Gone are tailored trouser suits, chic two-pieces and glamorous, ankle-skimming gowns. Instead, you're more likely to spot looks you would find on the strip in Benidorm. Advertisement Think bum-skimming Lycra mini-dresses, skimpy bra tops, or dresses with sky-high thigh slits and boob-baring cut-outs. One of the things I love about a wedding — aside from dancing to Come On Eileen and drinking a headache-inducing amount of champers, — is getting dressed up. I'm talking sophisticated dresses, stylish hats and fascinators and killer heels for the girls, and sharp suits for the blokes. The novelty of getting spruced up to the nines makes the special day all that more exciting and memorable. Passing judgement on others' outfits while you wait for the bride to make her entrance (which, admit it, we all do) is a big part of it, too. Advertisement I'm out of the 'going to a wedding every other weekend' age bracket now — and what a relief, because the looks that seem to be trending wouldn't be out of place in the queue for an Oceana nightclub. Across social media, scantily-clad twenty-somethings share their wedding outfits with pride — while I gawp, with prejudice. A quick Google search for 'wedding guest outfits' produces dozens of brands' standalone pages dedicated solely to this category. Frankie Bridge is slammed by fans for 'OTT' wedding guest dress - as people warn 'don't upstage the bride' But as you scroll through the likes of Club L, Oh Polly and River Island, you'll find that the dresses and gowns — yes, Gen Z wear full-on gowns now — are better suited to the Love Island finale than a wedding in your local country house hotel. And, like most trends, we have celebrities to blame. Advertisement When Dani Dyer wed footballer Jarrod Bowen last week, guest and fellow Love Islander Georgia Steel was slated for wearing what looked like a revealing white dress to her pal's big day. After Georgia posted a snap on TikTok of the lace-trimmed Miss Circle number she wore, the trolls came out in force, bashing her for picking what was in fact a 'soft beige' dress. 'Wearing white to a wedding?' questioned one, while another waded in with: 'Way too bridal for a wedding.' And Georgia isn't alone. Two months ago, White Lotus actress Sydney Sweeney came under fire for the 'inappropriate' dress she wore to her Anyone But You co-star Glenn Powell's sister's wedding. Across social media, scantily-clad twenty-somethings share their wedding outfits with pride — while I gawp, with prejudice Clemmie She chose a cleavage-baring corset-style dress from V Chapman in a very pale blue. Advertisement Fans thought the colour was an issue. Comments included: 'That is not an appropriate shade of blue for a wedding' and 'The number one [rule] of a wedding is don't wear anything close to white.' 8 Love Islander Georgia Steel was slated for wearing this dress to Dani Dyer's big day Credit: Instagram 8 Sydney Sweeney was slammed for wearing a cleavage-baring corset-style dress to co-star Glenn Powell's sister's wedding Credit: Instagram 8 Hailey wore a backless white dress to a friend's big day in 2023 Credit: Instagram/@haileybieber Advertisement Personally, I take no issue with guests wearing white at a wedding. As long as they aren't also wearing a long veil (cropped veils on fascinators are allowed), who cares? Especially during summer, when every other dress on the high street is some shade of white. No one at the wedding is going to mistake someone else as the bride. It's the bride's name on the invite and her kissing the groom — so no need for the unnecessary uproar. However, what I would take issue with is the plunging neckline and lingerie-style basque of Sydney's outfit and, in Georgia's case, the fact her lacy dress is practically see-through. Don't get me wrong, Sydney is a knock-out, and if I looked like that, I'd be wearing sexy numbers, too — just not to a wedding. Advertisement As one person commented online: 'Kinda tacky to wear to a wedding. C'mon Syds, you can do better.' And she can. The woman is an ambassador for designer brand Miu Miu, for crying out loud. Raid something from their archives that's less underwear-like and more sophisticated. But it's not just Sydney. Kendall Jenner wore a heavily cut-out black gown to her pal's wedding, which sent the internet into meltdown due to its slashed fabric that barely covered her nipples. And her sister, Kylie, has also faced outfit-shaming from keyboard warriors. Don't get me wrong, Sydney is a knock-out, and if I looked like that, I'd be wearing sexy numbers, too — just not to a wedding Clemmie At Hailey and Justin Bieber's wedding, fans accused her of trying to steal the bride's limelight by wearing a gold, floor-sweeping gown with peek-a-boo cleavage and a hip-high slit. On X, one critic wrote: 'If someone tries to pull a Kylie Jenner move like this at my wedding . . . they will kindly be escorted out with a red wine stain down the front of their dress.' Advertisement Ouch! But then Hailey wore a backless white dress to a friend's big day in 2023, which broke all the so-called wedding rules for looking just like a bridal gown. When it comes to these codes, they're subjective and are dependent on the wedding location. If you're lucky enough to be a guest at a ceremony abroad in a hot country, sitting in a long-sleeve, high-neck, polyester dress at noon is going to give you heatstroke. And wearing a tailored pencil midi dress to sit on a bale of hay in a field will make you stick out like a sore thumb. I get it. I've been there myself and it's a minefield. But if in doubt, aim for a more demure style. Advertisement Don't copy the under-boob and pelvis-flashing looks of young celebs — think more of the women who have nailed the guest brief. Keep it classy Cast your mind back to happier times when Meghan Markle and Prince Harry got married. Amal Clooney, in a yellow, capped-sleeve midi-dress by Stella McCartney, was crowned best-dressed guest in attendance. Bold, but without being in danger of over-shadowing the bride, it was perfect. 8 Demi Moore was a flawless royal wedding guest in a burgundy dress and matching veiled hat by Stella McCartney Credit: Getty 8 Amal Clooney, in a yellow, capped-sleeve midi-dress by Stella McCartney, was crowned best-dressed guest in attendance at Meghan and Harry's wedding Credit: Getty Advertisement Another flawless guest at a royal wedding was Demi Moore. She battled gale-force winds in a burgundy dress and matching veiled hat — again, by Stella McCartney — when Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank in 2018. And she looked incredible. Cindy Crawford's daughter, actress Kaia Gerber, also got it right when she wore a classy, long-sleeved dress from Reformation to a friend's 2018 wedding in Miami, Florida. At the time, the navy, slit-leg frock retailed for £180, proving that even supermodels with designer brands at their fingertips can look amazing in high street buys. A big emerging trend on the high street this wedding season seems to be minimal frocks with slinky scarves, which are intended to be worn draped down your back, not wrapped around you like a winter woollen. Advertisement They create a sense of elegance without having to have your boobs and bum out. So if you are heading to someone's nuptials this summer, keep it classy, girls. Underwear as outerwear and flesh-flashing cut-outs are for the weekend, not for a wedding.

Multiple artists boycott SXSW London over Tony Blair and David Cameron talks
Musicial acts including LVRA and Heartworms have dropped out of the inaugural SXSW London festival due to the undisclosed involvement of former MPs Tony Blair and David Cameron Several music acts have withdrawn from the inaugural edition of SXSW London for allegedly hiding the involvement of controversial speakers from both the public and scheduled artists. LVRA, Sam Akpro and other artists are accusing the festival of 'art-washing' after news that former Prime Ministers David Cameron and Tony Blair were part of the programme. SXSW London 2025 marks the US event's debut in Europe, running from June 2 to June 7 in Shoreditch. The week-long event includes talks, panel discussions, workshops and music performances with major politicians, entrepreneurs and artists including Dr. Jane Goodall, American-entrepreneur Lucy Guo, Sadiq Khan, Letitia Wright, Idris Elba, and many more. Last week, journalist Matt Kennard shared screenshots of an alleged leaked programme via X, which revealed that former PMs David Cameron and Tony Blair would speak at the event - unbeknownst to artists. According to Kennard, organisers were 'keen' to have both talks go ahead, despite the leak. When news of Cameron and Blair's involvement in the festival broke, artists jasmine.4.t, Heartworms, Sam Akpro, Blood Of Aza, Saliah, and LVRA all revealed that they would no longer perform at the event. The latter posted a lengthy statement accusing the organisers of 'art-washing'. LVRA shared via Instagram: 'Having spent the last several weeks in talks with the music team at SXSWL, I will be boycotting. This is also in solidarity with other acts who have already boycotted the festival.' The artist added: 'Whilst the music team were pulling together a diverse, 'cool' line-up, the conference team were booking speakers from multiple organisations deeply complicit in the current genocide of Palestinian people. This included weapons tech IDF supplier Palantir, Barclays and politicians such as Tony Blair and David Cameron. This surmounts to art-washing.' They then cited numerous other criticisms of the event, including 'inaccessible pricing' that excludes marginalised groups and an 'exploitative business model'. After raising concerns to the event, LVRA confirmed some 'productive conversations' that led to the removal of the CTO of Palantir and Head of Sponsorship at Barclays but announced their withdrawal after learning of Cameron and Blair's planned involvement. Sam Akpro also issued a statement announcing his withdrawal due to the involvement of the PMs and Kate O'Brien, who is involved in the NATO Innovation Fund. In his statement, Akpro also accused the festival of art-washing, saying: 'SXSW is using us smaller and minority artists to push information and ideologies that I do not align myself with.' Heartworms, who was due to headline Hoxton Hall on June 7, cancelled her appearance, telling fans: 'I won't be performing at SXSW London this weekend for what I hope are fairly obvious reasons – I stand with those who have already done the same, and thank you to my team and label for their understanding.' In a statement to NME, a SXSW London spokesperson said: 'As one of the world 's largest festivals across tech, music and the creative industries, SXSW London respects everyone's views and positions and aims to create an open, diverse space for debate and discussion." Blair spoke at the conference's opening day about how AI can make government's better alongside Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, Peter Kyle. Blair said it was an 'enormous honour and pleasure' to share the stage with Kyle, saying he is 'one of the people I admire most in politics'. 'I hope that doesn't damage you political career too much, Pete,' Blair joked about his endorsement of Kyle. On the second day of the conference, David Cameron took the stage for a discussion titled 'A Healthcare Revolution'.
