Prince George is a huge fan of the show, according to Prince William who visited two young farmers at a Somerset event today and ran into the Clarkson’s Farm stars, Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland.
Young farmers meet with Prince William.
Prince William is set to appear on an episode of Clarkson’s Farm after meeting star Kaleb Cooper to discuss mental health within the farming community. The Prince of Wales, 42, shared wisecracks with Kaleb and co-star Charlie Ireland and revealed son Prince George is even a fan of the Amazon Prime show.
William took part in an event for sixty of the Duchy of Cornwall’s next generation of farming tenants at Folly Farm, in Somerset. And he also joined a panel chat hosted by television star and presenter Vick Hope which is set to appear on a future episode of BBC’s Countryfile.
The 26-year-old telly star made a joke about Kaleb’s “great hair” to his royal visitor as he met him. Williams inquired if the farmer celeb was sporting a clean shirt while Williams laughed and joked back. And William responded, “Are they the cleanest boots you’ve got?” when Kaleb pointed out his.
Kaleb has frequently addressed young farmers’ mental health issues. For a day of talks and activities for young farmers, he accompanied Clarkson’s Farm Land Agent Charlie Ireland.
However, William continued, “George is watching now.” What should I say if I meet Kaleb, I asked him. Tell Kaleb to think about his language, he said. Wills and Sam and Emily Stables of the charity We Are Farming Minds also convened a panel discussion, Vick Hope, the presenter of Countryfile, and Vick Hope. In an interview with Radio One, the prince claimed that their last encounter was in Birmingham.
Vick responded, “Yes, it was, and you mentioned that the aubergine emoji was your favorite.” Gills laughed back, “Not sure if that’s the current situation, but it did.”
The Duke of Cornwall, the Prince of Wales, and We Are Farming Minds, a charity that aims to promote the mental health of Duchy farmers, have been named as new patrons. He told the panel that “removing the taboo” around mental health in the farming industry is still a work in progress.
He said, “We can do more to support farmers and discuss mental health.” Williams has spoken extensively about mental health issues and said, “I never realized what I’d stumbled into when I scratched the surface. Mental health is a delicate subject that needs to be addressed. Vick Hope inquired about what was in his “toolbox,” which he said was used to deal with stress and mental health issues. “My toolbox is quite large.
He continued, “You have to have certain tools in your farm, and you have a tool box that is a mental toolbox, to deal with any problems that arise in life.” Find someone who can give you that tool if you don’t already have it.
“Don’t be afraid to ask for a bit of help. For me breaking work life balance, breaking the cycle where you can. I know in farming world you life, sleep, breath, everything, but try and find away to come away from it, otherwise you’ll find yourself talking about the same thing that bother you on a day to day basis. And it goes round in circles.”
Kaleb has made a statement about how significant mental health is in farming. And stated to William, “Most 20-year-olds go to clubs and pubs, but young farmers are stuck on their tractors, which is great, but they are not talking to anyone.”
He informed William that he receives about 250 calls each day “chatting away” with other young farmers who are working on their own fields. Afterward, he stated in a statement that Prince George enjoyed watching Clarkson’s Farm. He continued, “It’s family TV, and I do get verbally offended and I try to stop.”
William’s efforts to promote mental health in family settings were described as “the more people that shout about it the better.” It’s irrelevant who you are, but it’s great to have a Royal standing and pushing this.
Charlie Ireland once said, “You don’t need to be in farming to understand that there is a problem, and that’s what he’s highlighting, which is fantastic. Additionally, there were workshops for Duchy farmers of the future, children whose families will inherit, and mental health support advice. Williams also witnessed young farmers playing tug-of-war. His visit is scheduled to appear in Clarkson’s Farm series 4 from the beginning of May, as well as an upcoming Countryfile episode.
