Harriet Cowan became embroiled in a feud with Kaleb
Breakout Clarkson’s Farm star Harriet Cowan has confirmed a feud broke out between her and Kaleb Cooper which was not just for the cameras.
In Clarkson’s Farm series four, viewers saw Kaleb, himself a breakout star of the hit Amazon Prime Video reality TV show, leave the safety of the Cotswolds to embark on a tour of the UK. While he was away, Jeremy Clarkson enlisted the help of Derbyshire nurse Harriet Cowan to help fill in for Kaleb and run the farm.
Upon his return, Kaleb was seen on the show to kick off at Jeremy for the way the farm had been run, pointing out problems with the drilling and harvest and lashing out at the former Top Gear star.

Viewers saw the pair clash openly, with Kaleb memorably calling the renowned television presenter a “t**t”.
Jeremy had his own choice words for Kaleb, calling him a “f***ing w****r”, before taking him aside and attempting to calm him down, explaining how rock stars often suffer from ‘c*** flu’ when they’ve been on tour.
Now, Harriet has addressed the tension on set between her and Kaleb when he returned to Diddly Squat Farm to find her in his place – and the upset wasn’t just for the cameras.
Speaking to the Telegraph, she said: “I understand why he was p****d off and I’m not going to lie, he was.”
She continued: “But it wasn’t because of me as a person, or me as a woman. It was because he’d been away for so long on a tour bus.
“He’s like me, he’s a homebody. Eight weeks driving around, not with family, or being on a tractor. Then you come home and find out someone else has been doing your job? I’d be p****d off.”
But she stressed that it’s water under the bridge and the pair have since made up, adding: “But me and him are great now.”
Kaleb has not publicly addressed Harriet’s claims, but he has since praised her for stepping in, saying he was “very grateful” she had “saved the day” while he was touring.
Clarkson’s Farm’s most recent series saw Harriet briefly return as Jeremy organised a tour bus to London to protest against now-ex-Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ farming inheritance tax changes.
