In footage obtained by The Sun, Jeremy, who supplied the drink for the event from Hawkstone brewery, could be seen stepping out after announcing that he had recovered from ‘aggressive cancer’.
Last month, the 66-year-old actor, who was visibly emotional during an episode of Clarkson’s Farm, broke the news to his shaken co-stars Charlie Ireland and Kaleb.
In the series, which was filmed from late 2024 to September 2025, he revealed how he was diagnosed in May last year and told Kaleb that ten per cent of his prostate, ‘where the cancer is’, was ‘dead’.
In June, Kaleb spoke exclusively to the Daily Mail about their marriage, saying: ‘I really want to say I’m involved but it’s a lie,’ he said. ‘I can’t really say that, Taya did most of it.’
He said: ‘Getting married is both our dream. But Taya says, “I want it a certain way, I want my dress to be a certain way,” which is fine…
