Jeremy ClarksonEx-girlfriend Phillipa Sage claims he told her they were destined to be together – shortly before dating his current girlfriend.
The 62-year-old Top Gear presenter is currently dating Lisa Hogan, but had a date with Phillipa, 52, after they met while working on the show together.
She previously told Hertfordshire Life that she was a ‘PA, goffer and fixer’ to Jeremy on BBC’s Top Gear Live.
They were a couple for seven years before splitting up in 2017, with Phillipa once saying it took her “a long time” to move on after the breakup.
Now she looks back on their romance and says: Email online that Jeremy was once full of nothing but adoration for her.
“He actually told me, ‘I was born for you,’ and asked me to stay over a few days before he went out with Lisa,” she began.
“Then one of my friends pointed out the picture of him with another woman. I thought, “Oh yeah, she’s definitely his type. She is tall and blond. He’s gone for the perfect upgrade: taller, leaner, younger.” So I was like, “F**k off, what are you doing when we’re supposed to work things out?”.’
She said Jeremy told her to “be calm” and Phillipa assured Lisa that Lisa was “just a friend.”
But “a few weeks later,” he revealed that he “wanted to be with her.”
Phillipa went on to say that she had been in therapy for six years and admitted that seeking professional help “saved” her.
She claims that Jeremy still tries to reach her on her birthdays, but that she has blocked his number.
Elsewhere, Phillipa . revealed she’s ‘surprised’ to see the Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm flourishbecause she expected his Diddly Squat farm dream to be a private venture.
The TV star launched his program last summer, following his attempts to run a plot of land in Oxfordshire with… Caleb Cooper by his side.
Phillipa said, “I’m shocked at what he’s done with it now because I thought he always wanted to keep his private life private. He wanted peace and quiet.
“He told me I ran the shop—sort of a mini-Daylesford—but like it was a sweet vegetable shed and not some gleaming commercial venture. I do not get it.’
Clarkson’s Farm is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
