Fresh Jeremy Clarkson prostate cancer update as star’s brave TV reveal sparks HUGE spike in number of men getting tested
PROSTATE Cancer UK have revealed another huge spike in the number of men getting tested following Jeremy Clarkson revealing his diagnosis.
The charity has confirmed that in the 24 hours after Jezza, 66, dropped the bombshell news on Clarkson’s Farm on Wednesday some 16,749 men took their online risk checker.
That was the highest figure since former Prime Minister David Cameron, 59, revealed last year that he’d also had prostate cancer.
The organisation also had 43,543 visitors to its website – the highest of the year so far and double the number they’d normally receive.
Meanwhile Kaleb Cooper, Jeremy’s colleague on Clarkson’s Farm who was seen in the show crying as he was told the bad news, gave an update on his bosses state of mind.
Diddly Squat Farm manager Kaleb, 27, said: “He’s in good form, he’s in good spirits.
“So yeah, all is good.
“It’s like reliving it again in a way, because the show is filmed a year in advance.
“The only thing I can say is that as a friend and as a, I would say a close friend, I’m supportive in every way.
“I’ve been there for the whole of that journey and I’m still here to this very day.”
The final two episodes of the fifth series of Clarkson’s Farm droppped in the early hours of Wednesday morning and news of his diagnosis quickly spread across the internet.
The NHS and Prostate Cancer UK immediately saw a rise in the number of people making enquiries and Jeremy was flooded with messages of support from fellow celebrities as well as members of the public.
He has yet to make any public response following the reveal three days ago.
