Clarkson's Farm star Harriet Cowan shares loved-up snaps with doting partner

Clarkson's Farm star Harriet Cowan took to her TikTok page to share a sweet post about her partner, James Booth, as she 'hopes to get this life with him forever'
Clarkson's Farm star Harriet Cowan took to her TikTok page to share a before-and-after picture of her and her long-term partner. The star, who is a new addition to the Amazon Prime Video programme, posted a selfie of her and her partner James Booth in 2018, as well as one of them now.
In the 2025 picture, she leaned back on James as they soaked in a jacuzzi. "From party teenagers in 2018, to mid to late 20s in 2025 and like to be in bed before 10. I hope I get to this life with you forever," she captioned the wholesome post, which gained almost 10,000 likes.
Fans took to the comment section to share their support for the happy couple, with one user writing: "Wishing you both eternal happiness," and another adding: "You two are so cute."
One fan posted: "Wishing you the best." Joining the latest series, Harriet has been a major help to ex-Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson at Diddly Squat Farm, particularly when fan-favourite Kaleb Cooper headed off to work on various projects across the UK.
Viewers have been cheering for nurse turned farm worker, marvelling at her passion for rural living and ambition to demonstrate that 'girly girls' like her can handle tractors and livestock as competently as her male counterparts.
Nevertheless, her time on the programme was short-lived because of Kaleb's return, which left her newfound fans yearning for more.
Thankfully, the star shares online videos to let followers stay tuned into her daily adventures, drawing in millions of views.
Harriet and her partner James first met when they were both at a Young Farmers' Meeting all those years ago.
In a recent post shared on social media, Harriet posted a video of James driving a tractor, hinting that he is four years her senior. In another post, she said: "The 'butterfly effect' is crazy because if I didn't join Young Farmers, we'd never have met."
The star continued: "YFC gave me my whole life and for that I will be forever grateful!" Harriet also urged others to consider joining community groups, promising they will "meet the greatest people".
Meanwhile, in the show, once Kaleb returned to Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, Harriet said an emotional goodbye to Jeremy.
The presenter, who was on Top Gear for 25 years across two stints, told Harriet: "You saved my life. So, if we get stuck again, can we give you a call?"

Accusations of plagiarism, AI use and author bullying: 'BookTok' rocked by recent scandals

A scandal over allegations of plagiarism is rocking the book community on TikTok, becoming the latest drama to unfold in a pocket of the internet that was once considered a safer space from online toxicity. 'Beverly,' a romance novel by indie author Laura J. Robert, had picked up recent buzz on the social media platform, where readers and authors often discuss the latest titles and give recommendations. But several creators removed their videos praising Robert's book after allegations emerged that it was a rip-off of the indie author R.J. Lewis' 'Obsessed,' which was published in 2016. Both books have plots that follow a lead female character and her romance with her childhood friend. Some people posted excerpts of Lewis' words juxtaposed with Robert's, identifying what they described as similarities. Others accused Robert of using artificial intelligence to tweak and lengthen Lewis' book to create her own version. A handful of people speculated the authors could be the same person — because Robert's initials are Lewis' initials backward — and that the controversy could all be a PR stunt. NBC News was unable to reach Robert on Friday. Lewis declined to comment further. On BookTok, some have cited the somewhat niche controversy as yet another example of the community's shift away from lighthearted content around new releases. 'Does anyone miss just having a silly, goofy, fun time, having a bit of a laugh?' Lola Oluremi, a BookTok creator, said in a recent video discussing 'Beverly' and 'Obsessed.' 'I feel like every time I log onto BookTok now, it's something.' The online space, which has been credited for inspiring a fresh wave of interest in literature, hasn't been devoid of drama in the past. But this month, the 'Beverly' accusations followed two other separate situations that had caused some division among BookTokers online. Author Ali Hazelwood, who is behind popular novels such as 'The Love Hypothesis,' left Instagram purportedly after she was 'bullied' for a comment she made during a panel discussion at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books in April. Hazelwood weighed in on who she thought Katniss Everdeen, the protagonist of Suzanne Collins' 'Hunger Games' books, should have ended up with romantically, saying it should have been her childhood friend Gale, rather than her fellow tribute, Peeta. 'He's a terrible, mean, selfish person,' Hazelwood said of the character Peeta, a baker's son from District 12 who was reaped alongside Katniss in the books. The clip of Hazelwood's remarks was widely circulated and blasted online by people who accused her of having a bad take. Hazelwood didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. Since she went dark online, several BookTokers have come to her defense, reflecting on how the community has seemingly become more prone to getting lost in meaningless discourse. 'The way y'all have lost the plot over a fictional bread boy has left me genuinely questioning the mental health of the book community,' Shelley Fleuridor, the YouTuber behind the channel 'Book Chats with Shelley,' said in a recent video delving into the Hazelwood backlash. 'We need to talk about what's happening to this community and why some of you genuinely need to be placed in a reading timeout immediately, maybe permanently.' Also this past month, Victoria Aveyard, the author of the 'Red Queen' books, sparked a wave of backlash and speculation on BookTok after she post a video alluding to another author's using generative AI in a novel without naming the purported writer. She said she didn't name the person because she didn't want to get sued. 'Using GenAI to come up with characters, plots and story ideas isn't writing. It's theft,' Aveyard said. 'Using GenAI doesn't make you a writer. It makes you a thief.' She said generative AI has been trained on copyrighted material that 'has been stolen from artists without license or compensation.' Some subsequent posts from users accuse Aveyard of being a 'mean girl' obsessed with 'drama.' In other videos, some try to guess which author she was referring to. Meanwhile, a handful of authors have also been posting videos of their writing and editing processes to prove their work isn't made with AI. With 'Beverly,' it remains unclear whether there will be consequences for Robert beyond online fallout. Robert's social media pages and her author website were no longer online Friday. 'Beverly' has also been removed from Amazon. The title remains on GoodReads, where several people have posted comments about the plagiarism accusations and given the book a one-star review. Lewis posted about the plagiarism allegations on Instagram this week, calling the situation an indie author's 'worst nightmare.' "I'm an author who does not have a big online presence and thank all who have reached out to bring this to my attention as I don't have much visibility on the social media space," she wrote. She said she has contacted Amazon to raise a copyright infringement case and hopes 'that people in the booktok space realize this author is stealing content and profiting from it.'

'We made a change after Covid that's let us quit our jobs to travel the world'

Ryan Losasso and Jade Beaty, 30, are now known as Live The Dash and travel across the world filming their exploits for their TikTok account, which is followed by 505,000 people A couple quit their desk jobs and now travel the world full-time after discovering what they had captured on holiday. Ryan Losasso and Jade Beaty, 30, are now known as Live The Dash, one of the biggest UK travel creators with 505,000 followers on TikTok. They live a life many dream of, getting paid to whizz around the world to intriguing destinations. ‌ The advertising workers had not planned to become full-time TikTok content creators. In fact, it wasn't until they returned from a big six-month trip at the turn of the Covid lockdowns that they realised what they were sitting on. ‌ "We had all this video content when the world shut down, and we had a lot of time on our hands. So we turned to this huge stock of footage," Ryan told the Mirror. "We set ourselves a challenge of posting a video every day for 30 days. Then when some of that did really well, it spurred us on. We continued to post every day for six months." Do you have a travel story to share? Email webtravel@ READ MORE: Tourist warning to 10 million as Europe's hottest capital on alert Jade added: "It was surprising how quickly we got through that content. On a walk in Spain, the videos were doing quite well, and we realised we were going to run out of content soon. We started joking that we'd start going on trips." At first, the couple juggled their desk jobs with travel, booking themselves onto the cheapest flight out after they clocked off on a Friday and returning on Sunday. Two years ago, they decided to go full time. The risk has clearly paid off, as Jade and Ryan are among the most watched travel TikTok channels and won the platform's Travel Award for 2024. Part of the secret to their success is putting in the research hours before they go on a trip and then only travelling when they've landed on a great idea. That might be heading to New York to see if the hallowed 'dollar slice' of pizza can still be purchased, or around the UK in search for a genuine 99p 99 whippy. ‌ They've also spent the night on the fastest sleeper train in the world, which rushes snoozing passengers from Hong Kong to Shanghai. "Was it amazing? The tech is amazing, but you're sharing with three other strangers. It reaches 270 mph, but it's super smooth," Ryan explained. "For TikTok specifically, we have our hooks before we go. We film all we can, we film the journey, we film two intros, two hooks. We bet on all the horses." The search for something new that will engage their audiences takes the pair to places they might otherwise not have visited, which often turn out to be the most enjoyable. READ MORE: Brits warned of travel chaos as European airport hit by 10th walkout in 45 days "Somewhere I wasn't expecting much from was Weston-super-mare. It had a lot of cheap whippies. It is obviously a faded Victorian seaside town, but the beach is gorgeous," Ryan said. ‌ Jade added: "We also like to hunt out weird hotels. We stayed in a cow cabin with unlimited free milk, near Ed Sheeran's hometown, called Easton Farm Park. We also stayed in these huge tree houses in Derby." The old adage of 'if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life' seems true in the couple's case. They still have the travel bug and are hugely excited by their trips. Part of that means pushing themselves to engage with people they meet along the way. "We have this rule that whenever we're on the plane, we have to speak to the person next to us. One guy told us 'do what excites you'. Six years later, we still tell ourselves that. We call it Conrad's message." ‌ The couple also recommends running every day and practicing good communication for travelling couples who want to avoid arguments while on the road. In terms of finding inspiration, they recommend using the adjustable 'For You' feed on TikTok. It is now possible to customise content preferences so you can see more or less of certain content in topics from over 10 categories – including travel, sports, nature, and food and drink An AI-powered 'smart keyword filter" that allows users to limit content they don't want to see'. "The For You feed is the heart of TikTok, a way for us to discover new content. We use the new features, manage topics, and think it's really cool that you can filter which topics you want to see more or less of."

TikTok influencer sparks debate after getting FIRE BRIGADE to let her into her flat when she locked herself out

A TikTok influencer has sparked a fiery debate online after calling firefighters to her home after locking herself out. Lindsey Lowell, who goes by @lindseyinlondon on TikTok, left many furious online after calling the fire brigade to help her get into her Clapham flat. While zooming home on a Lime bike, she shared that she didn't have keys for her flat and that her roommate was on holiday. 'So I have a few options,' she said. 'I either try and scale the wall and climb through my window or I go to the fire department and asked them to bring a ladder to my house.' And while some social media users suggested she stay at an AirBnB, a hotel or even go to a pub, Lindsey steamed ahead to ask the firemen for some help. In a follow-up clip, the TikToker showed her open window as she devised a possible plan to climb up the wall. 'We're walking to the fire department to see if they will bring a ladder to my house to let me crawl through my little window,' she said. She continued: 'That would be so idyllic. Maybe I should stop and get them some pints on the way.' After speaking to a firefighter at the station, she was informed that the fire engine was out on a job near her home. But, she was told to ask for 'firefighter Jack' who would help her get into her flat. 'I see the firefighters,' she said. 'Once they finish up at this job, they are going to come over to my house and they're gonna bring the white ladder... and they are going to get me into my house. 'I am so overjoyed right now.' Footage then shows the fire crew use its turntable ladder to reach an open window and gain access to the house. However, the involvement of the fire service has caused an uproar online, with many questioning why the emergency service was being used. One wrote: 'Seriously? You got locked out and called firefighers? I bet locksmith would've been just fine.' Another added: 'I'm confused, is there a reason you spent public money rather than getting a locksmith? ' While a third said: 'I can't believe the fire brigade came and did this, we have locksmiths.' 'Why didn't you just knock on a few peoples doors to ask for a ladder?,' a fourth wrote. Some leapt to her defence. One person said: 'All those saying locksmiths; in London an emergency locksmith charges just shy of £1000!!!!!' A second added: 'People are hating on her for this, but I think it's a smart move. She hasn't called 999, she's just gone and asked, after all they could have said no. It's on their way back to the station and probably took them like 15min max.' However, most were left confused over the use of the fire service. 'Who casually goes to the fire department to ask to borrow a ladder because you locked yourself out?,' one wrote. Someone else added: 'You called firefighters because you were locked out? That is £1000s of public money. Why did you not get a locksmith?' Another wrote: 'You called firefighters because you were locked out? That is £1000s of public money. Why did you not get a locksmith?'.
