Jeremy Clarkson on hosting Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
Jeremy Clarkson regularly keeps his fans updated on the small luxuries he enjoys in life, from cars, to travel and even farming. The presenter, who replaced Chris Tarrant on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? in 2018, has now spilled on his new love for a pink drink.
The 60-year-old car-enthusiast revealed he has made a lifestyle change as he turned his back on red and white wine.
It comes after The Grand Tour host detailed that sales of the popular drink have "skyrocketed by 400 per cent" since the weather improved during lockdown.
In his recent column for The Sun, Jeremy said he made the switch to rosé after suffering with sleeping problems.
He wrote: "About ten years ago I began to realise that if I drank white wine in the evening, the alcohol would slowly turn to sugar — so at four in the morning I’d sit bolt upright in bed, with my heart beating like a jack hammer and my eyes out on stalks.

"I couldn’t have been more awake if a wolf had just walked through the door."
Jeremy continued: "I therefore switched to red wine, which meant that by nine in the evening my face was in the bouillabaisse.
"So I alighted on rosé and I’ve never looked back."
The TV broadcaster explained a rosé" is a wine for all occasions", even on Bonfire Night and Christmas Day and shouldn't be reserved for hot summer nights.
Elsewhere, the TV star recently revealed he got in some exercise after being urged to do a perimeter walk of his land by fellow farmers.
He said the recent coronavirus pandemic had made him think about his weight, in his latest column for The Sunday Times.
Jeremy set out on what turned out to be a 10-mile hike with his girlfriend Lisa Hogan.
But it nearly turned into a disaster after he got embroiled in a couple of spats along the way.
He explained: "On the evidence to hand, 100 per cent of people who walk in the countryside are argumentative and unpleasant idiots."
It comes after he asked a dog walker to put her pooch on a lead because there were sheep in the next field.
Despite the minor hiccups, Jeremy admitted he "loved" the outing, which took a total of seven hours.
Meanwhile, Jeremy recently reacted to a Twitter user who shared a throwback snap of the presenter.
The screenshot was taken from an old episode from Top Gear with Jeremy sporting very long hair.
The person in question captioned the post: "@JeremyClarkson Watching old Top Gear 1992... Jeremy Clarkson with hair!"
In view of his 7.2 million followers, Jeremy cheekily replied: "I’ve still got hair. Only now it grows out of my nose. And ears."
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? airs tonight on ITV at 8pm.
