Jeremy Clarkson becomes midwife to deliver his dog Arya's 11 puppies
Jeremy Clarkson acts as a midwife to deliver his dog Arya's 11 puppies after recently discovering midwifery is a talent of his.
While England's Lionesses lifted the Euros 2025 trophy after beating Spain in penalties, the Clarkson's Farm star was incredibly busy delivering the animals at his Oxfordshire home. The ecstatic TV presenter, 65, celebrated the arrival of the puppies and he shared his excitement about the football.
"Now I know you've all been enjoying the football but I've been rather busy, if I'm honest, because look what Arya's done!" Clarkson said in a piece to camera, shared on Instagram. "Yay! Well done Lionesses but really, really, really well done Arya!"
His dog Arya appears on Clarkson's Farm alongside his other fox-red Labrador Retriever Sansa. Both dogs — named after the Game of Thrones characters — were sent off for training but came back just as mischievous in amusing Clarkson's Farm scenes.
Diddly Squat Farm manager Kaleb Cooper was delighted to hear the news about the puppies. He commented on the Instagram post: "Whoop whoop! Can't wait to meet them all!"
Jeremy Clarkson becomes a midwife
One of Clarkson's followers was convinced his girlfriend, Lisa Hogan, would have been the midwife after showing her maternal side on Clarkson's Farm. Among the comments, one follower said: "Well done Arya and Lisa (who I'm sure was midwife!)."
However, the former Top Gear host declared he was the midwife on this occasion. Clarkson wrote back: "Actually, I was!!"
Many of his following praised his efforts, with one saying: "A man of many talents who can now add midwifery to his CV!!"
Another added: "After the lambs, you earned the title Mr Clarkson - Journalist, Broadcaster, Midwife!"
Someone else said: "You're now a vet as well as a farmer. The list gets bigger."
"Is there anything Mr C can't do?"
Despite the huge amount of interest in the puppies from his followers, it's not known whether he will become a dog breeder or whether they will all become stars on Clarkson's Farm.
Clarkson did say he was done with business, though. He told The Times: "I am not starting another business as long as I live." His businesses include: the Clarkson's Farm show, Diddly Squat farm shop, The Farmer's Dog pub, Hawkstone's brewery. They have all proven to be a great success.
Jeremy Clarkson has finally found his calling
In April, Clarkson had discovered he had an unlikely talent when it comes to being a midwife — and it's something he really enjoys too.
He wrote in The Times: "I'm sure there are many people who go through life like this, never really finding anything that they're good at or which they truly enjoy. But last week [April 26] that changed for me because, finally, after nearly 65 years of being average to poor at everything, I finally found something I both love and am quite good at. Midwifery."
Clarkson helped deliver calves for the first time when his cows on Diddly Squat Farm were due. No doubt the scenes will play out in a future series of Clarkson's Farm.
Previously, he has been present at a lot of animal births, including puppies, but he hasn't got involved. The TV presenter has helped lambs give birth in the past but he insisted that it isn't midwifery, "that's running a production line".
Clarkson totally changed his life when he bought Diddly Squat Farm and became a farmer. It has taken his life in a different direction but he has found farming has become one of his true passions and now midwifery has too.

Goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale joins Newcastle on season-long loan
Newcastle have completed the signing of Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale on a season-long loan, with an option to buy. The 27-year-old moved to St Mary's from Arsenal for an initial £18million last August and performed well in an embarrassing campaign for the relegated Saints. Ramsdale has secured a Premier League return by joining Newcastle for the 2025-26 season, with Southampton receiving a substantial fee and seeing his wages covered in full as part of the loan. The PA news agency understands the Magpies, who lost out on Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford to Manchester City, also have a purchase option as part of the agreement. 'It's great to be here,' Ramsdale said. 'I've always loved coming here and I've seen how passionate and loud the fans can be. 'I've always loved playing here at St James' Park – I've not always had the greatest of results, but when the fans get behind you it's some place.' Ramsdale has made 183 Premier League appearances since being handed his top-flight debut in 2019 under Magpies boss Eddie Howe at Bournemouth. 'Working with the manager and his coaching staff again were a big draw for me,' the England international said. 'They've already had a great influence on my career and the gaffer turned me from a man into a professional footballer at Bournemouth. 'He really showed me the ropes, so the manager and his coaching staff were a huge selling point for me to come here.' Newcastle head coach Howe added: 'Aaron is an exceptional goalkeeper who adds further quality and international experience to our squad. 'Having worked with him before, I know what he can bring to us on and off the pitch, so we look forward to welcoming him into the group.'

'The aim as Celtic boss is always to dominate'
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is again targeting domestic domination with style as the champions prepare to begin their title defence against St Mirren. Rodgers was a penalty shoot-out defeat against Aberdeen away from completing his third treble as Celtic boss last season after finishing 17 points clear of Rangers. A new challenge awaits in terms of a Rangers side under new ownership and new leadership in the form of head coach Russell Martin. However, Rodgers said: "The aim as a Celtic manager is always to dominate every competition. "We obviously have qualification for the Champions League that we want to arrive into, and we want to be really competitive in that competition if we arrive there. "That was our idea last year. Nothing changes. You add that to the pressures here at Celtic, it's always about not just winning, but winning in a style of football. "That's always the pursuit of the teams here, to play attacking, aggressive football."
