Kaleb Cooper, known for being Jeremy Clarkson's farmhand on Diddly Squat Farm, has ended up in A&E this week after suffering a painful injury
Kaleb Cooper has revealed he has suffered a 'painful' injury that sent him to A&E as he shared an update for his fans online earlier this week. The Clarkson's Farm star, 26, took to Instagram on Wednesday (June 11) to share that he had to go to the hospital for a scan after hurting his foot while playing a game of football on Tuesday evening.
Kaleb shared that he was in significant pain as he posted a video of his swollen ankle while hobbling around his farm, before going to the hospital for an X-ray the following morning, the Mirror reports.
‌
He later updated his Instagram story to reassure fans that he still planned to attend the Three Counties Show over the weekend. He said:"I may be hobbling around as I've fractured my ankle, but I'll still be at the 3 Counties Show on the Sunday."
‌
"I'll be doing talks throughout the day, and Hawkestone Cider will be there. So, do pop along and say hello. I'll be there - don't you worry! I'm looking forward to it," he continued.
The update comes just days after the fourth season of Clarkson's Farm premiered on Prime Video. A fifth season is already in development, though Jeremy Clarkson has hinted that the popular programme may take a break afterwards.
Speaking to The Sunday Times, the former Top Gear presenter stated: "Whatever happens we'll definitely take a short break as the crews are all worn out. We've been filming here two or three days a week, every week, for five years. Everybody could do with a rest."
Clarkson's farm has been a major success since its debut in 2021, with Kaleb quickly rising to fame as one of the show's stand out figures. His popularity has since led to a UK speaking tour and the release of his own book.
‌
While Kaleb was away on his live speaking tour, Jeremy received help from a new farmhand, the glamorous Harriet Cowan. However, Clarkson was quick to shut down claims that Kaleb had been "replaced" on Clarkson's Farm.
The 65-year-old presenter continued: "What happened is this, he went away on his speaking tour, for a couple of months because he imagined that after four years, I'd be able to manage on my own."
"I didn't – I made a complete mess of everything and had to bring in a young girl called Harriet. Harriet is brilliant and looked after the fort until he got back. That is it – that's the story!," he confirmed.
Since moving to Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds, Jeremy has kept fans gripped with the ups and downs he's faced trying to run a farm for profit - which is all documented in his hit series.
He's supported by Kaleb, who often proves to be far more knowledgeable about farming than his car-obsessed boss.
