Chatting to The Sun, Kaleb, 26, said he’s on a sugar-free diet. He said: “I’m on a no-sugar thing, and it’s all because I had this dream. I did and didn’t understand the dream, but I knew I had to quit sugar.

I’m on a no-sugar thing, and it’s all because I had this dream.

“I went to tell Taya [his ­partner] and she thought I wouldn’t do it. I’m four weeks in now, and I’ve lost six kilos, which is pretty good.”

He added: “I do have the odd cheat day, but only sugars that naturally occur.”

Kaleb also shared a health update on Jeremy following his heart surgery. He said the former Top Gear host is “doing all right” as he branded him a “fighter” and “strong man”.

Earlier this month, Jeremy, 64, opened up about his health scare. The TV star said he went to hospital after suffering symptoms following a swim on holiday.

Jeremy said he felt “clammy”, had a “tightness in my chest” and “pins and needles in my left arm”.

Writing for The Sunday Times, he said he had to “take a moment to make sure my limbs were working properly” when he stood up.

Jeremy said he also struggled to climb a flight of stairs “without holding someone’s hand”.

He explained: “Back at home, though, the sudden deterioration began to gather pace. I woke on Wednesday morning not feeling too good. I was clammy and there was a tightness in my chest.”

After going to hospital, Jeremy said: “It seems that of the arteries feeding my heart with nourishing blood, one was completely blocked and the second of three was heading that way.”

Jeremy said doctors believed he was potentially “days away” from becoming very ill.
