Kaleb Cooper has blamed 'This Morning' for his ear injury.

The 'Clarkson's Farm' star has been battling an earache, which occurred after he had to wear an earpiece for a live 'This Morning' appearance last week.

He wrote on his Instagram Story: "I’ve got an earache which I’m blaming on ITV, because when I did the This Morning interview I had to wear an earpiece to be able to hear them and since then I’ve had an earache [laughing face emoji]"

But 25-year-old farmer Kaleb admitted he was "in a mood".

He also joked: "I might be in a mood at the moment!"

Kaleb shot to fame on Amazon Prime Video show 'Clarkson's Farm', in which he helps former 'Top Gear' presenter Jeremy Clarkson to run his Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds.

In February, Kaleb admitted he "didn't know what to expect" when he started filming the show.

Speaking on ITV's 'Lorraine', he told stand-in host Christine Lampard: "I didn't know what to expect, to be honest, I'm not an actor, I'm not on television and I'm just being for myself.

"That works for me because I just turn up to work, do my day-to-day job and get filmed while doing it. I didn't know what to fully expect when we started but it turned out to be a great success and hopefully, we're highlighting the farming industry.

"I think we work really well together, we're good friends on and off camera. Yes, we argue quite a bit but if we argue one minute then two minutes later we're fine!"

Kaleb also joked he had lost some hair since he started working with Jeremy.

He said: "He's slowly getting there and I'm not going to say he's the best because it hurts to say anything good about him but since working with him I've lost 34.4 percent of my hair.

"Very precise."
