Popular British farmer Kaleb Cooper has revealed he is eyeing a move Down Under.
Kaleb, 26, is best known as an assistant to presenter Jeremy Clarkson in the former Top Gear presenter’s national reality series Clarkson’s Farm.
And talk to The timesKaleb, who is also a farmer off-camera, revealed he was interested in a possible move Down Under
He told the publication that Australia was “calling” him because of the success of Clarkson’s Farm, which can be seen on Amazon Prime.
“Australia is calling me, but it’s quite far away, isn’t it?” Caleb said.
And it seems every possible Australian move was quickly scuttled, with Kaleb, upon realizing the distance between Britain and Australia, adding: ‘Oh, f**k that.’
That’s probably a good thing since Kaleb, who shares children Oscar, three, and Willa, one, with fiancé Taya, doesn’t have a passport and has never been abroad.
Kaleb, who lives in Wiltshire in south-west England, also revealed in the publication that he was completely happy with life on the farm, adding that he ‘doesn’t see the point in other countries’.

“When I leave Wiltshire my ears pop,” he said.
“When I leave, I’m out of my comfort zone,” he added. ‘If the fuel pump in my car broke, who would I go to? Then I get nervous.’
Kaleb began his farming career at the age of 13 and rose to prominence as the experienced farmhand to Jeremy Clarkson’s novice farmer at Diddly Squat Farm in the Amazon reality series Clarkson’s Farm.

‘So I don’t really understand or know any of these celebrities when they come up to me and say, “Oh hey Kaleb, can I have a picture” and so on. ‘
Kaleb revealed that the former Manchester United star had visited the famous Diddly Squat farm, which is owned and operated by his famous friend Jeremy Clarkson and is the subject of the hit Amazon Prime series.
Still, when Jeremy asked Kaleb to come meet the sports legend, he simply replied, “Who?”
Kaleb added, “Yes. He was on the farm, and I just walked by, and he was there. And Jeremy said, “Come and see David.” And I thought, “David, who?” And David Beckham.’
David posed next to Gerald Cooper, who works on Jeremy’s farm and has become a fan favorite on the show.
Jeremy jokingly captioned the photo: “Gerald. And another man.’
