Kaleb Cooper, best known for starring in Jeremy Clarkson’s Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm, has confirmed that he doesn’t own one very important thing many people think is a necessity
Clarkson’s Farm star Kaleb Cooper has made a very unexpected confession.
The 27-year-old from Chipping Norton recently appeared on the Performance People podcast with his boss Jeremy Clarkson. While chatting about their jobs, Kaleb revealed that he has never been on holiday and has no desire to do so, nor does he enjoy travelling to other parts of the UK.
Kaleb even told hosts Georgie Ainslie and Olympian Sir Ben Ainslie that he doesn’t own a passport. When Kaleb mentioned that he’d heard the first passport is free, Clarkson retorted: “It’s not the cost of the passport people consider, it’s the ability to go places with one.”
Kaleb remained firm: “I don’t need to,” When Georgia suggested the possibility of a book signing in New York, Kaleb said he had “no intent to go to New York” and instead suggested the idea of Chipping Norton, reports the Express.
Clarkson added: “Honestly when I met him…he’s never really being outside of Chipping Norton at all.” Kaleb responded: “You sent me to London for the second time for the wasabi. which was awful.”
Kaleb revealed he had since travelled to the capital for the NTAs, though he mistakenly believed he was attending the National Tractor Awards, only to discover he was actually at the National Television Awards.
Ben Ainslie observed: “If you’ve got everything on your doorstep why do you need to go anywhere else?” to which Kaleb responded: “Well exactly, I have everything in Chipping Norton, the shops, the people, my family is there, I don’t need to go anywhere else.”
Many viewers praised Kaleb as “wise” for holding this view, commending the television personality and remarking how satisfied he seemed with his life in the UK. One viewer commented: “He is very wise. Travelling today is not easy especially with mass tourism taking over everything. Comfort and happiness at home is not dull or boring.”
Another chimed in: “Kaleb doesn’t need to chase happiness, he has everything he needs, wants and loves on his doorstep. He is a lucky chap.”
A third person noted: “It’s called being content, he has nothing to prove. Once you reach the level of contentment that he has and have no intention or interest in striving every day. Life becomes very pleasant. To find contentment in what you have is a powerful thing.
“I think he’s great, authentic and loves where he lives and works,” observed another fan. Someone else penned: “I love Kaleb, probably one of the happiest human beings on earth, just shows you cars, holidays and all the material shit people are out chasing don’t always make you happy.”
One fan expressed: “Love people who are unapologetically themselves. This show is one of the best to come out and has humanized Jeremy so much.”
