Lisa Hogan explained why she's not married or having children with Jeremy Clarkson

Lisa Hogan has explained why she hasn't tied the knot with long-term partner Jeremy Clarkson, as he joked about then getting hitched for tax purposes in the new season of Clarkson's Farm.

Fans of the show will know Lisa has been a regular fixture throughout as she's helped him out with the farm, run the Diddly Squat shop and put a lot of work into looking after the animals they've got in their fields.

Unfortunately that means she also has to bear the emotional brunt of the tougher aspects of farming alongside him, with Clarkson saying the first time he'd seen her cry during their relationship was when many of the pigs they'd been rearing on the farm didn't survive.

Clarkson and Hogan have been together since 2017 after meeting thought mutual friends, but while they've been together for several years they've not got married.

They've joked about it a few times on Clarkson's Farm and one of the latest times was during the first episode of the newly released series.

"If only I knew someone I could marry who was Irish," Clarkson quipped while he discussed ways to get around taxes on farming vehicles with 'Cheerful' Charlie Ireland.

One of the production team suggested 'that could cost you a lot more' to Clarkson, which got some chuckles into the meeting.

While they've both joked on the show about the prospect of marriage, Lisa has previously made it clear she was happy with their relationship the way it was.

Discussing her relationship with Fabulous Magazine in 2022, she said: "Mrs Clarkson? No, thank you, I like Lisa Hogan."

Both of them already have children from previous relationships and besides the animals they're looking after on Diddly Squat Farm they're not looking to add any more small creatures to their list of responsibilities.

"We're at a stage where we are not going to have kids. I'm just happy pootling along," Lisa explained.

"I think because of our age, it's much easier. You go: 'God, is it you I end up with? OK, that's it'.

"But it's relaxing knowing you are not going to be with anybody else. It gives you a certain amount of liberation."

At other times she's spoken about their relationship but her comments indicate she sees him as her 'final partner' even if they're not going to be walking down the aisle in a church.

She's also said she's had to look after Clarkson though his latest health scare involving a blocked artery, which is part of the drama in the new series of Clarkson's Farm, as she's been sneaking kale into his meals and is fortunate that if his meals are covered in chilli he'll eat just about anything.

The first four episodes of the fifth season of Clarkson's Farm are available to stream on Prime Video, two more episodes will release next week (10 June) and then the final two release a week later (17 June).
