Clarkson's Farm fans in shock after Lisa Hogan reveals 'terrifying' plane crash
Clarkson's Farm star Lisa Hogan has revealed she survived a plane crash.
The Irish model and actress, 51, became a household name a few years ago when appearing on her partner Jeremy Clarkson's programme Clarkson's Farm.
The couple initially met at a party through mutual friends before getting together in 2017.
Lisa has rarely spoken about her private life since first coming into the spotlight, but she was once a sculptor and shares three children with her ex-husband, Baron Steven Bentinck, a Madrid-based private art collector.
However this week she shared details of a shocking accident she found herself caught up in nearly 30 years ago.
In his weekend newspaper column, Jeremy began by explaining that how between them, the couple had 'walked away from three plane crashes over the years'.

'Both mine involved landing gear and were fairly minor but hers was a proper shunt,' he wrote.
'She was the only passenger in a Learjet that careered off the end of the runway at Northolt and onto the A40, where it was hit so hard by a van that it split in two.
'It's amazing no-one was killed, and if you google the images you'll see what I mean.'
Sharing the article on Instagram, Lisa then shared an image of the crash and a brief description of what happened.
'Amazingly the pilots, van drivers and I survived. I took another flight the same day. And landed safely,' she wrote.
Photos of Lisa's near-death experience in 1996 show the close call, with debris strewn across the road.

Posting on Reddit, one fan wrote of the crash: 'That sounds terrifying, enough to put anyone off flying.'
A then 25-year-old Lisa had been travelling from Palma in Spain to London for a film role in the John Cleese film Fierce Creatures, the sequel to A Fish Called Wanda.
At the time she was taken to Hillingdon Hospital and treated for shock and cuts and bruises, including an injury to her leg.
She left the hospital later in the afternoon and was 'basically OK', according to a film company spokeswoman.
The Irish Times reported that both the pilot and copilot, who suffered severe cuts, were also taken to hospital, while the van driver escaped with cuts and bruises after being cut free from the wreckage.

Speaking to the publication David Early, the pilot of a hospital helicopter from nearby Beckenham Hospital, spoke about being one of the first on the scene.
'How on earth a plane that size didn't cause more damage I don't know. If it had landed six feet either way then the passenger in the plane would have been killed or even the pilots,' he said.
'It was a mess when I arrived and I think that everyone involved was extremely lucky.'
Last year Lisa recalled details of the crash to the Irish Independent, saying that after the plane took off 'everything was fine for a while'.
A decision to sit where she wanted – rather than moving seats as advised by the captain – also saved her life.
'I insisted on sitting where I was, which was just as well because that was the area where the van came through when we crashed and I would have been killed instantly,' she said.

After the crash she quickly booked another flight and returned to Majorca just a few hours later.
She later told the Air Accidents Investigation Branch that the two Spanish pilots did not appear to know where RAF Northolt's airfield was and began fighting over the controls.
'We were going round and round for ages and then they started arguing. The co-pilot tried to do something, but the pilot smashed his hands off the controls and then we crashed,' she said.
Lisa also said she felt their approach was too steep and that the plane was travelling too fast.

In her emotional words she wrote: "Our Darling Teddy has his wheels. read more stacey solomon CUT LOOSE? Stacey Solomon has been noticeably absent from Loose Women - pals reveal why "We have spent the last few days trying to teach teddy a new way of getting around & he's finally learning to love his wheels. "He was very nervous at first but seeing him today walking around with Peanut again was so special." In a plea to fans Stacey, who was seen supporting Teddy with his adventures in the garden, pleaded for fans for their understanding. She added: "We have spoken to our vet and have bought Teddy some wheels. If we are doing anything wrong please be kind. "This is a totally new journey for us and we are doing our best to give teddy the best life he can possibly have. "So just let us know if you have any tips."

"We know your whole world has turned upside down but you've been so calm and patient and we hope we are giving you the second chance that you deserve. To the moon & back Teddy." FAMILY LIFE Stacey, who has five children - Zachary, Leighton, Rex, Rose and Belle - shares her youngest three with her husband Joe Swash. The couple live at their Essex home, affectionately called Pickle Cottage, along with their beloved pets including dogs Teddy and Peanut, and their cat Princess. Inside Stacey Solomon's Pickle Cottage STACEY Solomon splashed out a massive £1.2million on Pickle Cottage - and Joe Swash didn't put in a penny. She solely stumped up the cash for their Tudor-style Essex property, which is set in 2.5 acres and boasts an outdoor swimming pool. The former X Factor star and Joe live there with Zachary, Leighton, Rex, Rose, and Belle. It's not known why Stacey went alone, as ex-EastEnders actor Joe is reportedly worth over £1million, but has also been made bankrupt twice in 2009 and 2013. Shrewd Stacey has shown she's a dab hand at running a wide range of successful businesses including TV, books, clothing and homeware ranges. Her main firm Key Map Entertainments is worth just shy of £3million - and she's also branched out into cosmetics. The former X Factor contestant registered the company Belle & Rose Ltd, named after her youngest two daughters. They currently have their own fly-on-the-wall BBC reality series, titled Stacey and Joe. Viewers have already seen the ex EastEnders actor break down in a candid chat with his wife while discussing the challenges he's faced with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). Stacey previously confessed viewers would see 'domestics' between her and Joe. And this proved to be true, as the pair were seen clashing on screen over parenting issues. 6 Earlier this year, the family feared Teddy would not survive his ordeal Credit: Instagram 6 Stacey husband Joe Swash and their family live at the stunning Pickle Cottage Credit: Instagram

Lucy Bronze's jaw-dropping home with on-trend terracotta bedroom and sleek kitchen
Lucy Bronze is a star player for the Lionesses and has often been hailed by her teammates as the self-styled 'bossy mum', but off the pitch, she lives in a stunning home with a trendy bedroom and sleek kitchen Lioness legend Lucy Bronze is known as one of the world's top female footballers, and her stunning abode is just as impressive as her undeniable talents on the pitch. The 33-year-old Chelsea right-back is heading into the Women's Euro 2025 final with her England team after a triumphant 2-1 victory against Italy. The Lionesses will go up against Spain on Sunday, July 27 in the Euro final, and as the self-styled "bossy mum" of the squad, Bronze will no doubt be at the forefront of the action. Ahead of the Euros, Bronze told BBC Sport: "I play every game like it could be my last. When you put on that England shirt, you don't want to leave anything on the pitch." But when she's not reaching for a trophy or putting the 'e' in energy on the field, the professional footballer can be found at her jaw-dropping abode. Pizza, partying and a new mantra - How Lionesses celebrated reaching Euro 2025 Final Off-pitch lives and loves of England's Lionesses gunning for Women's Euro 2025 glory One of the standout rooms in what has been reported as her lavish home is the terracotta and pink-shaded bedroom, with warm furnishings and cosy interiors. Bronze gave a peek into her bedroom in an Instagram post dubbed "Down time x self care", while using her Shark LED face mask. The room is adorned with abstract art above the bed, plants on the wooden chest of drawers, a circle mirror, lamps with rattan shades, and plush pillows scattered across the double bed. The room is the perfect haven with its warming tones and snug features. What's more, her bedroom is so on-trend that Victoria Robinson, style and trend expert at Hillarys, told Ideal Home:"Lucy Bronze's bedroom is a beautiful showcase of the terracotta trend that's set to be huge for 2025. The warm, earthy hue she's chosen creates an inviting and cocooning atmosphere -perfect for a restful bedroom retreat. "It's impossible not to feel instantly drawn in with this colour scheme - like you've just stepped into a sun-drenched Tuscan villa, even if it's raining outside!" In an Instagram post back in 2021, Lucy is thought to have shared another look inside her home, this time her kitchen. While it's unclear if Bronze has since moved, the large kitchen boasted sleek grey cabinets and a large island in the middle. In the snap, Bronze beamed alongside her Nan to sweetly wish her a happy birthday. The same room with the kitchen and open-planned space was featured in another Instagram post in the same year, this time with the footballer holding her beloved pooch. The downstairs area boasts white tiled flooring and white walls for a minimalistic finish, with large patio doors spanning the room. In the background, a clothes horse can be spotted drying a variety of sportswear, hinting further that it's the home of one of England's top players. Outside, a well-kept garden can be spotted with pristine grass for footie practice and trendy furniture for those warmer days. In an interview back in 2019 with The Gentlewoman also revealed that football memorabilia is a key part of her home decor. They shared: "A framed England shirt with Lucy's name and her number, 2 – her very first England shirt from playing for the U17s – sits in the corner."

Marcus Rashford 'reunites with ex-fiancée Lucia Loi' as she 'supports him in big move'
England star Marcus Rashford has reported reignited his romance with his ex-fiancée Lucia Loi, as she was spotted supporting him as he signed with Barcelona FC, reports claim Football star Marcus Rashford has reportedly rekindled his romance with his ex-fiancée Lucia Loi as she was spotted supporting him as he made a big move. The Manchester United ace, 27, was spotted with his childhood sweetheart Lucia, 26, as he signed with Barcelona FC, according to reports. It has been claimed the pair were together during a photoshoot shortly before Marcus' signing was unveiled at Camp Nou stadium. Marcus is now on a season-long loan to the La Liga club from Manchester United. The news was announced on Barcelona FC's Instagram page in a video where he is seen speaking on the phone in a traditional London telephone booth, as he says: "It's official". Ahead of the new chapter for the football star, Marcus' ex was spotted at the photoshoot for his unveiling. The Sun reports Lucia took Marcus' photo and moved behind him to take another and checked his shirt before he posed alongside a British red phone box. Meanwhile, it's also been claimed Rashford has asked Lucia to help him settle into life in Spain in order for him to focus on his football. The on-off couple are said to have stayed close following their split, and have grown increasingly close in recent times. A source claimed to the publication: "Marcus knows that some of the best moments in his career have occurred when Lucia has been at his side. "They got together when they were very young and have had ups and downs, but a friendship has always remained. "He knows that she is good for him and she is one of the few people in the world he knows has got his best interests at heart." Meanwhile, the source also claimed Lucia is "very sensible" and helps to keep the football star "grounded". Rashford met childhood sweetheart Lucia in school and the pair dated for around eight years before splitting in May 2021. They rekindled their romance in 2022 and later that same year, Rashford popped the question to Lucia in Los Angeles. However, the pair's romance ended once again in June 2023 with Marcus reportedly going on to date Love Island star Grace Jackson, before things fizzled out at the end of 2024. The reported rekindling of Marcus and Lucia's romance comes at a big time in Rashford's career as he's the first England international to sign for Barcelona since Gary Lineker in 1986. Speaking on Barcelona's YouTube channel, Marcus said: "I'm very excited. It's a club where people's dreams come true, they win big prizes. "What the club stands for means a lot for me. I feel like I'm at home and a big factor in my choice to come here is because it is a family place and a good place for good players to showcase their skills. "Another factor is because the conversations I had with [Hansi Flick] were positive. What he did last season was terrific. To lead such a young team to a very successful season and come back to pre-season and still want to do more, it shows me everything I thought I knew about the club and it's everything I wished. I'm eager to learn the Barcelona way."
