Overview
- Kaleb Cooper told ITV hosts that when his fiancée Taya went into labour he finished the job he was doing in a field, went home for a shower and dinner, and then went to the maternity centre.
- The couple’s third child, a son named Ashton, was born at Chipping Norton Maternity on 14 August 2025 and weighed 6.13 pounds.
- Jeremy Clarkson first announced the birth in his Sun column and Kaleb later confirmed it on Instagram with a photo of the newborn and a note that he bought the midwives a Chinese takeaway.
- Cooper recounted the story live from Diddly Squat Farm, where he works, and used the appearance to joke that he plans to stop at three children.
- The anecdote has been framed as light human-interest coverage that underscores public interest in Clarkson’s Farm figures and the real tensions between farm responsibilities and family life.
