Jeremy Clarkson fans rally after Lisa Hogan statement

The 66-year-old has dated the Irish actress since 2017 with the pair making their on-screen debut in 2021 for the first series of Clarkson’s Farm.

Former Top Gear and Grand Tour host Mr Clarkson shares an impressive £12.5m mansion on his 1,000 acre Diddly Squat Farm between Chadlington and Chipping Norton, in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds.

Mr Clarkson recently celebrated his 66th birthday on April 11 and Lisa shared an Instagram picture with the caption: “Happy birthday Yeremy [sic]. You’re such a cool cat, with all your 66 lives..& many more.”

The accompanying photograph of the two prompted fans to rally around the couple with words of admiration for the pair.

One person said: “They are so cute, it’s my dream to have this kind of relationship someday. Wishing you both happiness.”

Another person, commenting on the song choice on the post of Cool for Cats by Squeeze, said: “Love this photo, and the song choice from (in my opinion) the best band ever.”

While a third questioned whether Mr Clarkson had “popped the question”

Last year, Ms Hogan gave an insight into the pair’s relationship during an interview with the Daily Mail.

She said she avoids arguing with him, adding: “I’m more conniving than that. Why argue with someone like Jeremy? He’s so eloquent. I have to be a bit more… nimble. I like the long-term diplomatic approach.”

The pair met at a drinks party hosted by a mutual friend nine years ago, however, she said that she knew him for his columns, with regular contributions for The Sun and The Sunday Times, rather than his presenting.

Speaking about the presenter and what he is like off camera, she said: “He’s always incredibly inquisitive.

“His mind is always on the move. He’ll come in fizzing with energy about the smallest thing. I like that.

“I used to let my son stay up to watch Top Gear, but I never really watched it myself. I knew him more from his writing. I always loved his columns. I thought he was bright – and probably amusing. And I think he thought I’d be amusing.”
