TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson shared an update on his health with fans recently amid his return to work after having undergone surgery on his heart earlier this year.
It was announced last month that Jeremy, 64, had a stent fitted in his heart. The former Top Gear host - who's had various health issues over the years - said the procedure came following a "sudden deterioration" in his health.
Jeremy however has now returned to work, with him seen filming for the new season of Amazon Prime docuseries Clarkson's Farm recently. He was spotted filming alongside his colleague Kaleb Cooper, 26. The pair are said to have been working together outside Jeremy's country pub the Farmer's Dog, which is located in Oxfordshire.
Footage published by the Sun this week show Jeremy using a telehandler to move logs. He's also seen watching co-star Kaleb dig a hole in the ground in a photo. One clip from their visit to the estate shows fans approaching Jeremy in a car park. When asked how he was, Jeremy said: "I'm fine, thank you."
One person told the outlet: "It was great to see him looking so well after what has happened." They continued by saying: "We asked about how he was feeling after the heart procedure and he said 'I'm feeling fine - better than ever'."

PA)Jeremy announced that he had surgery on his heart last month, opening up about it in a column for the Sunday Times. He said that he had struggled using stairs on a holiday abroad and then a "sudden deterioration" began back at home.
As reported at the time, Jeremy said that he felt "clammy," experienced a "tightness" in his chest and had "pins and needles" in his left arm. Concerned of a potential heart attack, he requested medical attention and ended up going to hospital in an ambulance, where he said they ruled out a heart attack following an ECG, blood tests and X-rays.
It's been stated that he was subsequently taken to an "operating theatre" and Jeremy, who's described the procedure as having been "extremely urgent," suggested that a doctor had told him he may have been just days away from death. He said: "It seems that of the arteries feeding my heart with nourishing blood, one was completely blocked and the second of three was heading that way."
Jeremy went on to have a stent, which has been described as a device that works to prevent future heart attacks by improving blood flow to the heart, fitted. The news led to discussion about his lifestyle and he's said that it's been "horrific" making changes to his diet, for example, in the wake of the issue.
