Jeremy Clarkson revealed he has lost three stone in the past six months after going on weight loss jab Mounjaro following his heart scare
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.
Although he’s managed to avoid some of the common side effects of the drug, such as constipation, the TV host shared there was one unexpected thing the fat jabs have done to his body.
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.”
After losing three stone, Jeremy said he was still on Mounjaro, but the weight loss had now ‘plateaued’. Due to its appetite suppressing quality, he shared he hasn’t put any weight back on and added: “It really is an astonishing drug.”
Back in June 2025, Jeremy opened up about the health battle he said almost killed him. Holidaying in the Seychelles when disaster struck, his said his ordeal began when he attempted to jump into the sea.
But instead of diving gracefully, he did a huge belly flop. When he finally reached the beach he said his lungs were full of water and he realised “I can’t do it anymore”. Back home in the Cotswolds a few days later Jeremy woke up feeling clammy with a tightness in his chest.
When his arms froze with pins and needles an ambulance was called and a CAT scan in hospital revealed two of his vital arteries were blocked, possibly from years of smoking 40 Marlboros a day. Though he quit in 2017.
Medics went on to insert two stents to prop open the blood vessels and told him to give up high fat and processed foods. Discussing just how close to death he had been, the star recalled a doctor telling him: “Days away? Maybe.”
Despite this, the TV star still has 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 had a hobby. I’m not really interested in anything particularly. What would I do? Watercolour paint? Birdwatch? I wouldn’t be able to fill the day. No, I enjoy having lots of different jobs to do.”
