Jeremy Clarkson joked about his mounjaro use as he accepted his National Television Award at London’s O2 arena on Wednesday.

The TV presenter, 65, took home the award for Factual Entertainment with his Amazon Prime show Clarkson’s Farm.

‘I should explain I’m on Mounjaro, my trousers are falling down,’ he said after walking on stage.

His partner Lisa Hogan then grabbed him as Jeremy added: ‘Lisa’s going to hold my trousers up whilst I make a very short speech.’ 

Jeremy previously revealed he has lost two stone since he started using the weight-loss jabs.

He first turned to Ozempic, which ‘didn’t work’, but then found Mounjaro – another type 2 diabetes drug – which he says has been a game-changer.

But the star awkwardly forgot to thank his partner Lisa Hogan, who also appears on the show, during his speech

Jeremy took a playful jab at some of the other stars present in the packed arena during his speech by stating that his team ‘worked way harder than anyone else in this room’.

During his chaotic speech, Jeremy awkwardly forgot to thank Lisa, who also appears on the show, despite heaping praise on the rest of his team.

Lisa awkwardly raised her hand as her partner continued to gush about his colleagues. 

Previously, Jeremy told The Sun about his weight loss journey: ‘Lisa’s given up on trying to make me look decent. Honestly, I’ve never heard such nonsense. Trimming eyebrows? Does it really matter? I’m 65, it’s not like I’m David Gandy.’

He continued: ‘I shed about a stone and a half, possibly a bit more, and then it just stabilized. I think my diet is pretty good; the issue is I drink too much— that’s the crux of it.’

‘If I could just do something about that, but then I think, “what’s the point?”‘

Jeremy also shared his experience with a frightening illness he faced between August and October of the previous year, a topic covered in the latest season of Clarkson’s Farm. The first four episodes premiered on Prime last Friday.

While Jeremy was diligently working on opening his new pub, The Farmer’s Dog, he disclosed that he was ‘becoming increasingly ill’ but was unaware of the severity of his condition.

The farmer ‘got in a right panic’, as he put it, and lost all of his sense of humour and ‘ability to stay calm’.

He underwent an urgent two hour surgery to hold his arteries open, improve blood flow to his heart and relieve his chest pain.

Jeremy mentioned he’s down two stone thanks to the ‘game-changing’ weight-loss drug Mounjaro, yet he joked he’s ‘no David Gandy’ (pictured last year).

Ozempic didn’t work for the farmer so he turned to Mounjaro

Jeremy was told by doctors that ‘a lot’ of his current work will have ‘to go’, and suggested replacing it with golf.

Although the former Top Gear front man said there was little chance he would stop working, his new diet was ‘horrific’ and the renowned meat-eater said he was struggling to ‘make celery interesting’.

So he turned to Ozempic – used to treat diabetes – but it left him feeling unwell again and finished his use half a stone heavier than when he started.

Writing in his column in The Times in March, he said: ”My body lost the ability to deal with gluttony but once the initial enthusiasm had worn off, my mind still wanted to breakfast on Cadbury Fruit & Nut.

‘This meant I was sick a lot. And after I had vomited, I figured I was empty and could have another bottle and maybe another bar of chocolate too.’

‘Microdosing’ Mounjaro has done the trick however, a drug which mimicks out hormones that help regulate appetite and blood sugar.
