Overview

  • Clarkson revealed in his Sunday Times column that a trapped nerve in his back is causing him discomfort, especially during rides in his Mercedes G580.
  • Last October he underwent emergency heart surgery at Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital where doctors placed two stents after discovering one fully blocked and another nearly blocked artery.
  • He maintains rigorous health oversight with biennial medical MOTs that include cardiovascular and liver tests, ultrasound scans and MRI screenings.
  • After finding Ozempic unworkable, Clarkson turned to Mounjaro to regulate his appetite and blood sugar, resulting in almost two stone of weight loss over six months.
  • He has begun filming season five of Clarkson’s Farm following a season four schedule whose demanding pub opening and harvest duties contributed to last year’s health crisis.
