Following a heart scare, Jeremy Clarkson embarked on a weight-loss journey to Mounjaro, where he lost three stone in the past six months.
Jeremy Clarkson has shared a surprising side effect of Mounjaro – after revealing he’s lost three stone from using the weight loss jab.
The 65-year-old Clarkson’s Farm star said he began taking the medication six months ago in a bid to get healthier after a heart scare that saw him have two stents fitted in blocked arteries.
The TV host shared that the fat jabs had an unexpected effect on his body, despite the fact that he has managed to avoid some of the common side effects of the drug, such as constipation.
He said: “I’ve had to have completely new outfits, because even my feet have shrunk. The shoes I was wearing last year are falling off me as I’m walking around – I think I might be the first person in the world to lose weight on my feet.”

Discussing other side effects of the drug, he revealed his model and actress partner Lisa Hogan, 51, had said he’s a bit more grumpy since taking the jab. Though he admitted that could be down to his age rather than anything else.
He told The Sun: “Constipation? No, I don’t have that. Diminished libido? I’m 65 – it’s hard to know what’s causing that. I’m just a little bit duller and not quite as sharp as you should be. I’m not quite as quick-witted. I find myself doing Hot Seat [Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?], thinking, ‘Oh f***, I should have said that, but too late now’. But who’s to say I wouldn’t have thought that when I wasn’t on it?”
Jeremy joked: “I’ll ask Lisa when I get back home – ‘You were never funny and you were never horny, Jeremy.’ Does she like the thinner me? Yes. I’m still not David Gandy. I’m nearer to Gandy now than I was a year ago, in the same way that tectonic activity means that South America is moving closer to Australia — not by much. But I can go much further, I can take the dogs out for longer now, so it keeps her happy. I’m much healthier.”
Jeremy claimed to be still on Mounjaro despite losing three stone, but it has since “platinated.” He said: “It really is an amazing drug because of its appetite suppressing quality” and that he hasn’t put any weight back on.
Jeremy made an announcement about the health issue that he claimed almost killed him in June 2025. His ordeal began when he attempted to jump into the sea while vacationing in the Seychelles when disaster struck.
He did a massive belly flop, though, instead of diving gracefully. When he finally arrived at the beach, he claimed that his lungs were oozing with water and that he was unable to breathe. A few days later, Jeremy returned home in the Cotswolds with a tightness in his chest.
An ambulance was called to his arms after his arms frozen with pins and needles, and a CAT scan revealed that two of his crucial arteries had been blocked, possibly as a result of smoking 40 Marlboros per day. Though he quit in 2017.
He was instructed to stop high-fat and processed foods and had two stents placed in his blood vessels. The star recalls a doctor telling him, “Days away,” when discussing how close he had come to being. Maybe”.
The TV star has pledged never to retire despite working nine jobs as a farmer, shopkeeper, brewer, pub landlord, documentary-maker, quiz show host, and writer of three newspaper columns.
Speaking to The Times, he said: “I’d just be an alcoholic if I stopped working, what else would I do? I have no hobbies, I’m good at nothing. Some people enjoy playing golf or fishing or whatever. When they retire, they can indulge themselves in their hobby on a more full-time basis.
I’ve never really enjoyed a hobby. Nothing about this really interests me. How would I proceed? Watercolor paint ? Birdwatching I wouldn’t be able to get through the day. No, I enjoy working a lot of different jobs.
