Jeremy Clarkson pictured with Hollywood actress at Silverstone
The former Top Gear and Grand Tour host has recently moved somewhat away from his motoring side to pursue an agricultural adventure.
Having purchased Oxfordshire's Diddly Squat Farm back in 2008, the celebrity has since filmed getting to grips with farming.
Clarkson's Farm was initially released in 2021 and documents life at the farm in Chadlington, raising issues which affect British farmers to the forefront.

She also starred in both of Denis Villeneuve's Dune blockbusters as well as The Greatest Showman and The Girl on the Train.
The two stars met at Silverstone with Mr Clarkson posting a photograph with Ms Ferguson on social media.
He captioned the Instagram post: "What a day at the British Grand Prix."
Filming on Clarkson's Farm series five is currently underway after an announcement confirming the new series was made late last year.

What are LAT relationships, and what do they mean for the LGBTQ+ community?
Sarah Paulson has a four-word relationship hack: 'We don't live together.' When the American Horror Story star told the SmartLess podcast in May 2024 that she and longtime partner Holland Taylor 'spend plenty of time together, but we don't live in the same house,' queer Twitter hailed it as the ultimate blueprint for keeping the spark alive without sharing a bathroom. That setup has a name — living-apart-together (LAT) — and, far from being a celebrity quirk, it's a relationship style with deep roots in LGBTQ+ culture, where autonomy and safety have always been prized alongside intimacy. The arrangement has outgrown its origins in sociology seminars. A 2023 U.S. census micro-tabulation counted almost four million American couples who live apart by choice, and a 2024 U.K. study finds LAT is a common cohabitation among daters over 60. For LGBTQ+ folks, the draw is clear: autonomy without sacrificing intimacy, space that feels safe, and a flexible structure. PRIDE asked Ruth L. Schwartz., PhD, a queer relationship coach and Director of Conscious Girlfriend Academy, and Dr. Angela Downey, a lesbian family physician from The Codependent Doctor, to break down how LAT works, the perks and pitfalls they see in practice, and the concrete steps to try it. - Yuri A/Shutterstock 'The term 'LAT relationships' (and the idea of 'living apart, together') originated, to my knowledge, with a Dutch writer in the 1970s, but it's gotten popularized recently because honestly, for a great many people both straight and LGBTQ+, it has a lot of appeal,' Dr. Schwartz tells PRIDE. Dr. Downey puts it in plain sociological terms. 'LAT stands for 'Living Apart Together,' and refers to couples who are in a committed relationship but choose to live separately,' she says. 'It emerged in sociological research from Europe in the early 2000s as a way to describe changing partnership structures that defy traditional living arrangements.' In other words, you can be fully partnered — rings, group-chats, pet-insurance, the whole nine — but keep two sets of keys. Queer folks have never fit neatly inside Hallmark's domestic script. 'LGBTQ people have been forced to — and have also claimed the right to — define our relationships for ourselves,' Dr. Schwartz notes. For many of the lesbians she coaches, especially women 50-plus who've 'already created their own homes or lifestyles the way they like them,' merging closets again feels like giving up autonomy. Dr. Downey echoes that cultural remix impulse. 'LAT relationships are more common in LGBTQ+ communities, where traditional relationship models may feel too restrictive,' she says. Choosing not to cohabitate can protect hard-won independence, reduce gender-role baggage, and soften the crush of 'U-Haul on date two' expectations. These days, LAT relationships are no longer fringe. In the United States, roughly 3.89 million Americans — about 2.95% of married couples — live apart by choice. In all relationships and all ages in the U.K., the 2024 UCL analysis found about one in ten couples maintain separate addresses, with LAT the preferred structure when over-60s start dating. Over-60s specifically: The same study pegs LAT at around 4% of older adults, making it as common as cohabitation in that cohort. Global echoes: Sexologist Pepper Schwartz cites 'over 4 million married couples in America' opting for LAT or long-distance set-ups, a figure repeated in Allure's March 2025 trend dive. The takeaway: LAT moved from quirky outlier to measurable slice of relationship data in under a decade. LightField Studios/Shutterstock Dr. Schwartz let us know all about the upside to these types of relationships. 'When we're not having to navigate all the domestic and financial details of a household together, there are fewer points of conflict,' she says. 'Each time we see each other can be special, and more focused on us and on emotional or physical connection.' Although she notes it can be pleasurable to be invited to someone else's home or vice versa, she also says lesbian couples often 'struggle maintaining sufficient autonomy… getting to have our own home spaces… can give us more of the kind of autonomy which then also makes room for more intimacy. Often, one partner's living space offers some 'goodies' that the other partner's does not.' Dr. Downey adds a clinical spin, noting the uptick in independence but also protecting against enmeshment, which she says can decrease conflict that can come about from living together. 'LAT can be especially healing for people who are recovering from codependency, caretaking burnout, or past relationship trauma,' she says. While some people love the idea of freedom, others don't have the same feelings. 'Some people really crave the intimacy of sharing space… so not sharing those things could feel like a loss,' says Dr. Schwartz. 'Some people have adopted mainstream society notions that it's only a 'real' or committed relationship if you're living together.' At the same time, Dr. Downey flags the emotional logistics. 'There may be more miscommunications and a difference in expectations about time together, future planning, or emotional needs,' she says. If kids, caregiving, or fur-babies are in the mix, the Google Calendar juggling intensifies fast. If you're curious about LAT, start with a brutally honest convo. 'Have an open conversation about why you're interested in LAT and what each of you hopes to gain,' Dr. Downey advises. 'Clarify your values, needs, and boundaries. It's not about avoiding intimacy, it's about redefining it intentionally.' Dr. Schwartz models the arc with her own story of how she and her partner moved from cohabitation to separate homes. 'We definitely had more emotional and physical intimacy when we lived separately,' she says. 'It's important to be really clear about what appeals to each person and/or frightens each person about the idea of living separately while in a committed partnership. Obviously, having these conversations from the beginning would be ideal, as there might be more sense of loss involved if people were living together and then one partner wanted to change that.' KinoMasterskaya/Shutterstock A LAT relationship isn't automatically 'long-distance.' You could live in adjacent apartments, across town, or on another continent. Either way, intentionality rules: 'There's a need to carve out time together, because you won't necessarily be waking up in the same bed… So, being conscious and intentional about when it works best for you to spend time together… will be key,' says Schwartz. She recommends rituals — from a nightly 30-minute FaceTime to alternating sleepovers — tailored to distance and bandwidth. Dr. Downey's prescription is just as explicit. 'Prioritize your partner through consistent communication,' she says. 'Schedule regular quality time, share rituals that create connection, and check in about how the arrangement is working for both of you.' Think of it as relationship cross-training: fewer defaults, more reps of active listening. LAT isn't a half-measure; it's a design choice. It lets queer couples keep the spark (and the spare room), sidestep heteronormative scripts, and prove, yet again, that intimacy has never required a white-picket mortgage. As Schwartz sums up, 'Whether a couple lives together or separately, keeping the lines of communication open, and staying out of 'story,' assumption and projection, is key to making the relationship work.' For LGBTQ+ folx weighing the move, the question may be less why live apart than why not, if it safeguards both your autonomy and your heart.

Royal Family Celebrates Pride with a Posh Rendition of a Beloved Queer Anthem
The British royal family joined in on the Pride celebrations. On Saturday, July 6, the official Instagram account for King Charles and Queen Camilla shared a video from the Pride of London Parade, which celebrated the conclusion of Pride month. The event featured more than 35,000 participants marching through the streets of London, from costumed drag queens to leather-clad bikers. In the clip, a band of Coldstream Guards — whose primary role is to protect the monarchy — played a song in front of Buckingham Palace, opting to do their version of Chappell Roan's "Pink Pony Club," which has been embraced by the queer community as a modern anthem. "Happy Pride! 🌈🪩," the post was captioned, to the glee of many commenters. "This is wonderful and has made me feel proud xx," one wrote, while another agreed, "We stan a royal ally 👏🏳️🌈." The royals have become more outspoken about LGBTQ+ issues in recent years. At an event spotlighting the issue of homelessness among queen youth in 2019, Prince William was asked what he would do if one of his children came out as gay one day. The heir to the throne shares three children — Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7 — with wife Kate Middleton, and he said he would be "obviously, absolutely fine" with it. 'Do you know what, I've been giving that some thought recently because a couple of other parents said that to me as well,' William said at the time. 'I think you really don't start thinking about that until you are a parent, and I think — obviously, absolutely fine by me.' 'The one thing I'd be worried about is how they, particularly the roles my children fill, is how that is going to be interpreted and seen,' he said. 'So Catherine and I have been doing a lot of talking about it to make sure they were prepared.' The prince continued, 'I think communication is so important with everything, in order to help understand it, you've got to talk a lot about stuff and make sure how to support each other and how to go through the process. It worries me not because of them being gay, it worries me as to how everyone else will react and perceive it, and then the pressure is then on them.' The Brits aren't the only royals who embraced Pride month this year. In Norway, Maud Angelica Behn, the 22-year-old granddaughter of King Harald V and eldest daughter of Princess Martha Louise, announced that she was bisexual after attending Pride celebrations in Oslo. Can't get enough of PEOPLE's Royals coverage? to get the latest updates on Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle and more! "Happy pride from a [bisexual] person! 💖 💜 💙 🏳️ 🌈 🏳️ 🌈 🌈 🏳️ 💖️ 🫂️ ," she wrote alongside a slew of celebratiory emoji. "Pride this year was incredible and there was so much love💖💖💖 Many big hugs💖💖💖." Maud, the first member of the Norwegian royal family to publicly come out as queer, sported the blue, purple and pink colors of the bisexual flag for the event. Read the original article on People

Novak Djokovic's 11-year-old son, Stefan, is getting Wimbledon players' autographs. But not Dad's
LONDON (AP) — Novak Djokovic's 11-year-old son, Stefan, seems to be having the time of his life at Wimbledon, where he has been wearing a white hat with autographs of several players. One valuable signature he's missing? His father's. Advertisement Djokovic said after his 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 victory over Alex de Minaur in the fourth round Monday that his kid did most of the work himself to gather the names scribbled on the cap. 'It was himself, independently of me, approaching and asking for autographs,' the 24-time Grand Slam champion said. 'I think I might have asked only Jannik (Sinner) or someone, but everyone else he's approached.' Stefan is even having fun on the court, hitting recently with Flavio Cobolli, the 22nd-seeded Italian who will take on Djokovic in the quarterfinals. 'He's over the moon. Obviously, he loves tennis. Yeah, he has everyone's signature, except mine,' Dad said. 'But that's OK. I'll accept that.' Advertisement Djokovic and his wife, Jelena, also have a daughter, 7-year-old Tara, who got attention earlier in the tournament by doing a postmatch dance. ___ AP tennis: The Associated Press
