Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he suffers from sleepless nights after he was forced to part with some of his beloved animals on the Diddly Squat Farm. The former Top Gear presenter, 62, previously broke down in tears in a rare TV moment during a scene in his Amazon Prime Video show as he reluctantly sent his sheep to the abattoir for the first time.
Although it seemed like a hard task for the animal lover at the time, Jeremy has opened up about an even more heartbreaking situation after he was forced to say a final goodbye to seven of his male pigs in recent weeks. Describing the loss as 'gut-wrenching', Jeremy said that he suffered sleepless nights thinking about his pigs' well-being after they left his famous farm, The Mirror reports.
Opening up about his 'gut-wrenching' loss after the pigs departed Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds, Jeremy penned in his latest column for The Sunday Times : “I can never sleep properly the night before they go, and all the way to the slaughterhouse I have what feels like a hot cricket ball in the pit of my stomach.
