Jeremy Clarkson hints he could finally propose to girlfriend Lisa Hogan in new Clarkson’s Farm series

Jeremy Clarkson has dropped his biggest hint yet that wedding bells could finally be on the horizon with long-term partner Lisa Hogan.

In the fifth season of Clarkson's Farm, which lands on Prime Video on June 3, the broadcaster jokes that marrying the Irish model could offer a solution while discussing the challenges facing British farmers.

Chatting with adviser Charlie Ireland about how overseas farmers can often sell into the UK market more cheaply than domestic producers, Clarkson quips: "If only I knew someone I could marry who was Irish."

According to The Sun, a member of the production team quickly fires back: “That could cost you a lot more.”

The light-hearted exchange comes as Clarkson and Hogan approach their tenth anniversary together.

The couple celebrated nine years together last December, with Clarkson marking the occasion on social media by writing simply: "Nine years!" Hogan later joked on Instagram that it felt more like 900.

The pair first met in 2017 after mutual friends introduced them at a Christmas party.

Hogan has previously admitted she wasn't immediately won over by the former Top Gear presenter.

"I thought, 'Ok, you've got a bit of a rep' - so he had to really court me!" she told The Sun.

"He courted me for a solid three months!... he does make an effort to make me laugh a lot, which I really appreciate. And we do get on."

Marriage has long been a running theme in the couple's relationship. Speaking to The Sunday Times last year, Hogan recalled asking Clarkson if a "big surprise" he had promised was a proposal. Instead, he revealed a fallen willow tree that had started growing again.

When she pressed him on the subject, Clarkson replied: “I'll think about the proposal, OK? I'm not ready yet.”

Hogan later reflected: "I just thought I might surprise him."

Before finding happiness with Hogan, Clarkson was married twice.

He wed his first wife, Alexandra James, in 1989, but the marriage lasted just six months before the couple separated the following year.

Clarkson later married his second wife, Frances Cain. They spent more than two decades together and welcomed three children, daughters Emily and Katya, and son Finlo, before splitting.

Hogan was also previously married to Baron Steven Bentinck, with whom she shares three children with, before their marriage ended in 2011.

Possible wedding bells aside, Clarkson was seen being rushed to hospital in the harrowing trailer for series five of Clarkson’s Farm.

In the trailer for his show, an ambulance was seen racing down a country road before Clarkson was pictured lying on a hospital bed with wires connected to his chest.

The former Top Gear star had a heart procedure in late 2024, getting a stent fitted to open up a blocked artery following concerning symptoms.

Elsewhere, Clarkson’s Farm-Fest was branded a “shambles” after traders left early, claiming they were not making any money.
