As Clarkson's Farm returns, fans want to know more about Jeremy Clarkson's impressive net worth.
Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm has reportedly doubled in value from £6 million to £12.5 million since he bought it in 2008. The former Top Gear presenter initially made just £144 profit in his first year running the 1,000-acre Cotswolds farm..
It comes after past seasons showed how the controversial Diddly Squat Farm Shop helped boost profits despite fierce local opposition. Residents protested against the shop and restaurant, fearing it would spoil their idyllic surroundings. Clarkson considered selling up after a series of farming disasters, including failed crops and severe weather. Writing in his Sunday Times column at the time, he said: "I arrived at a crossroads and was not sure which way to turn.
" He added: "I could sell the farm and earn far more from the interest than I do from growing bread and beer and vegetable oil. " However, he decided to continue running the farm as a potential legacy for his children. The business has transformed dramatically, growing from £44,000 in assets and six employees to £1.34 million in assets and 17 staff within a year, according to the latest figures from last year.
Jeremy Clarkson's total net worth is estimated to be around £55 million.
