Jeremy Clark joked about his mounjaro use as he accepted his National Television Award at London’s O2 on Wednesday.
The TV presenter, 65, took home the award for Factual Entertainment with his Amazon Prime show Clarkson’s Farm.
But the star awkwardly forgot to thank his partner Lisa Hogan, who also appears on the show, during his speech. Â
‘I should explain I’m on Mounjaro, my trousers are falling down,’ he said after accepting the award.
Jeremy previoiusly revealed he has lost two stone since he started using the weight-loss jabs.
He first turned to Ozempic, which ‘didn’t work’, but then found Mounjaro – another type 2 diabetes drug – which he says has been a game-changer.

Jeremy then went on to make a dig at some of the other star’s in the room during his speech as he said his team ‘worked way harder than anyone else in this room’. Â
He previously told The Sun: ‘Lisa’s given up on trying to make me look presentable. I mean, I’ve never heard such nonsense. Trimming eyebrows? What does it matter? I’m 65, it’s not like I’m David Gandy.’
He added: ‘I lost about a stone and a half, maybe a little more, and then it’s just levelled out now. I think I eat pretty well, I just drink too much – that’s the essence of it.
‘If I could just do something about that, but then I think, “what’s the point?”‘
Jeremy also opened up about the terrifying illness he endured between August and October last year – something which is detailed in the new series of Clarkson’s Farm – the first four episodes of the series were released on Prime on Friday.
The host revealed that while he was working hard to open up his new pub, The Farmer’s Dog, he was ‘becoming more and more ill’ but had no idea he was staring death in the face.
The farmer ‘got in a right panic’, as he put it, and lost all of his sense of humour and ‘ability to stay calm’.
He underwent an urgent two hour surgery to hold his arteries open, improve blood flow to his heart and relieve his chest pain.

Ozempic didn’t work for the farmer so he turned to Mounjaro
Jeremy was told by doctors that ‘a lot’ of his current work will have ‘to go’, and suggested replacing it with golf.
Although the former Top Gear front man said there was little chance he would stop working, his new diet was ‘horrific’ and the renowned meat-eater said he was struggling to ‘make celery interesting’.
So he turned to Ozempic – used to treat diabetes – but it left him feeling unwell again and finished his use half a stone heavier than when he started.
Writing in his column in The Times in March, he said: ”My body lost the ability to deal with gluttony but once the initial enthusiasm had worn off, my mind still wanted to breakfast on Cadbury Fruit & Nut.
‘This meant I was sick a lot. And after I had vomited, I figured I was empty and could have another bottle and maybe another bar of chocolate too.’
‘Microdosing’ Mounjaro has done the trick however, a drug which mimicks out hormones that help regulate appetite and blood sugar.
