Kaleb Cooper, one of the breakout stars of Clarkson’s Farm, has announced a major new chapter in his life — and this time, it has nothing to do with tractors, farming, or even cider.
The 27-year-old farm contractor from Chipping Norton, who first captured viewers’ hearts with his no-nonsense wit and banter with Jeremy Clarkson in the debut season of the Prime Video series back in 2021, has grown into one of the most recognisable young farmers in Britain. Over the years, fans have watched him juggle the demands of running a farm with the challenges of raising a young family alongside his partner, Taya. The couple, who already share two children together, welcomed the birth of their third child earlier this month — a joyful milestone that Kaleb shared proudly with his followers.
But the surprises haven’t stopped there. On Monday (August 26), Kaleb took to his official Instagram account to reveal yet another life update. Posting a story that showed him standing waist-deep in water, the farmer-turned-television star wrote a tongue-in-cheek but determined caption:
“Got myself back motivated to get back onto my hardcore diet and exercise. I’ll be the next Gym Shark ambassador. I got this.”
The light-hearted announcement shows a different side of Kaleb — one that fans may not often see outside of his farming life. While he is best known for his fiery exchanges with Clarkson, his encyclopedic knowledge of the land, and his passion for farming in the Cotswolds, this new commitment hints at a desire to take on fresh challenges beyond agriculture.
This fitness revelation comes at a time when Kaleb is already riding high on a wave of professional success. Just last week, he proudly revealed that Hawkstone Cider — the brand he co-founded with Clarkson — had earned two prestigious accolades at the 2025 World Cider Awards. Hawkstone Cider itself won gold, while the brand’s fruity spin-off, Hawkstone Hedgerow, was crowned the best fruit cider in England.
Announcing the double win, Kaleb told fans on Instagram: “My cider just won a Gold at the World Cider Awards and better still, my Hedgerow cider won the best fruit cider in England!”
From a young farmhand with a dream, to a father of three, a national TV personality, an award-winning cider producer — and now a man determined to push his personal fitness to new heights — Kaleb Cooper’s journey continues to surprise and inspire. And judging by his determination, it seems this is only the beginning.
