Jeremy Clarkson has happy news to share as he considers himself "the world's luckiest man" after having previously revealed his prostate cancer diagnosis. The Top Gear host details the "aggressive" diagnosis, and is now in remission.
Speaking with The Times on Saturday, Clarkson said he "cheated death twice" when the form of the cancer could have spread to various parts of his body. His pancreatic cancer diagnosis became an emotional moment during the Season 5 finale of the Prime Video docuseries Clarkson's Farm. It ended on a cliffhanger with Clarkson in a hospital bed. Months later, the host is happy to talk about his outcome.
“It was an aggressive type of cancer. It could have spread, it could have gone into the pancreas, it could have gone anywhere, and that would have been trouble," he explained.
“This is why I have to say to everybody who’s reading this, please, please, please go and get checked. It’s not uncomfortable, it’s not undignified. And it’s a no-brainer. I did, and that’s why I’m sitting here talking to you 11 months down the line," Clarkson said. "I’ve seen so many people die of cancer. It doesn’t bear thinking about what it must be like to live knowing that an illness is going to kill you. It must be very, very, very distressing."
A medical professional discovered the cancer during a routine checkup in May 2025 after a series of tests. After confirming cancerous cells in his prostate gland, he underwent treatment for a malignant tumor last August using a high-intensity focused ultrasound. The procedure did come with complications due to Clarkson's previous medical history with vascular and cardiac problems.
View this post on InstagramClarkson reveals he had a major health scare amid his cancer treatment due to taking blood thinners, but admits it was his "own fault." The Top Gear host had previously been fitted with two stents in 2024 to prevent a fatal heart attack.
"I’d been on drugs for heart issues and I had to come off them during the cancer treatment. Two or three weeks after the cancer operation, I thought I’d better put myself back on those blood thinners. Big mistake, huge," he said. "It [resulted in] a very big emergency in the middle of the night. I’m not even going to go into the treatment that was required as a result of that, because it was horrible. I didn’t ask a doctor, I just thought, 'I’m sure it will be all right to go back on blood thinners.'"
While having taken "a bit of a battering" with treatment, he's grateful to be alive. Amid his remission from cancer, Clarkson hopes to inspire anyone watching Clarkson Farms to take precautions and get checked. He's now more focused on his health and what he eats, and staying away from processed foods. On Instagram, he revealed that Clarkson Farms Season 6 is in production.
