Clarkson’s Farm star Kaleb Cooper reveals why he felt ‘terrible’ when fianceé gave birth to son Oscar
KALEB Cooper has opened up on why he felt ‘terrible’ after his wife gave birth to their daughter Willa.
The Clarkson’s Farm star is a proud dad to 16-month old Willa and Oscar, who is three.
Kaleb, 26, said he felt ‘useless’ during fianceé Taya‘s labour as he didn’t know what he should be doing at the time.
He explained: “It was f***ing terrible, because when I’m helping that cow, I know exactly what I’m doing. I can bring the calf around to the mum and so on.
“Now, when Taya was giving birth, I felt useless. I’m seeing her in pain having one of my kids.”
Kaleb and Taya have been together for eight years.
The farmer continued to tell The Times Magazine how he and Taya decided to have kids earlier in life – a once popular trend with previous generations.
He said: “I wanted a girl and boy, which I’ve got and am very grateful.
“Then when I get older I can go down the pub with them, or out on the tractors, and I can still be energetic.”
Kaleb concluded: “I’ll make all the money now, hopefully have a farm, then chill out, go partying and be in Ibiza, though I can’t think of anything worse than being in a nightclub.”
Meanwhile, earlier this month it was revealed that Kaleb had landed his own solo show as his popularity continues to soar.
A special performance from his national theatre tour The World According to Kaleb will land on Prime Video.
It will be available on Prime Video globally from November 29.
The show will give viewers a front-row seat as Kaleb hosts an evening at Cheltenham Everyman Theatre.
