Jeremy Clarkson may have once been best known for his car exploits on ‘Top Gear’, but in recent years he has won over a new audience through ‘Clarkson’s Farm’, a documentary series that gave viewers a much closer look at his personal life. In the final episode of the show’s latest season, Clarkson revealed to farmer Kaleb Cooper and land agent Charlie Ireland that he has prostate cancer. “I disappeared off the other week, and I had a biopsy, and it is cancer, and it’s aggressive, but it’s really early,” he said.By his side throughout his health journey is his longtime partner, Lisa Hogan, who also appears regularly on the show. Fans have come to love the easy rapport between Clarkson and the Irish former model, along with her no-nonsense attitude toward the often divisive TV personality.
Who is Lisa Hogan
According to Grazia, Lisa Hogan is an Irish former model and sculptor who appears alongside Clarkson in ‘Clarkson’s Farm’. Born in Dublin, she has lived in Australia, Mallorca, London and Switzerland over the years, though she now leads a more rural life in the Cotswolds. Lisa is 52 years old.
How Jeremy Clarkson and Lisa Hogan met
The couple first met at a mutual friend’s party in 2017 and dated for several months before officially becoming a couple. “It was quite a long courtship as I didn’t know where he was in his life. And I wasn’t ready to start dating again,” Lisa told The Times. “He had to court me for three months.”

In December last year, the pair celebrated their ninth anniversary, with Clarkson marking the occasion on Instagram with a photo captioned “Nine years!!!!”
The age gap between Lisa Hogan and Jeremy Clarkson
Clarkson is 14 years older than Hogan. While Lisa has admitted that Jeremy “definitely wears the trousers” in the relationship, she maintains that things are still fairly even between them. “I do enjoy being a strong woman,” she said. “He’ll say he wants something done and I’ll try to talk him around to a more sensible way. And then I’ll agree to do exactly what he wants… and then I’ll go ahead and do exactly what I want!”

Lisa Hogan’s previous marriage and children
Lisa was previously married to Dutch aristocrat Baron Steven Bentinck, an art collector based in Madrid. The pair were married for 30 years before divorcing in 2011. She shares three children, Wolfe, Alice and Lizzy, with her ex-husband. Clarkson also has three children of his own, Emily, Katya and Finlo, from his second marriage to his former manager Frances Cain, making the Clarkson household a blended one.Lisa has previously said she is content that she and Jeremy will not have children together. Speaking to Fabulous magazine, she said, “We’re at a stage where we are not going to have kids. I think because of our age, it’s much easier. You go, ‘God, is it you I end up with? OK, that’s it.’ But it’s relaxing knowing you are not going to be with anybody else. It gives you a certain amount of liberation.”
Have Lisa Hogan and Jeremy Clarkson split
Despite frequently being the subject of tabloid speculation, the couple have not split. They also do not appear to have any plans to marry in the near future. In one episode of the latest season of ‘Clarkson’s Farm’, Jeremy joked, “If only I knew someone I could marry who was Irish,” while discussing ways to navigate taxes on farming vehicles. Lisa, however, seems entirely content with the relationship as it stands. “Mrs Clarkson? No, thank you, I like Lisa Hogan,” she has said.Marriage or not, the couple’s bond appears as strong as ever, and with Jeremy now navigating his cancer diagnosis, Lisa’s steady presence by his side looks set to remain a constant.
