Rachel Allen’s son Lucca has been making a name for himself in the motorsport world.
So it makes sense that he would have some connections in the car sphere.
Including Jeremy Clarkson!
Yes, Irish fans of the former Top Gear host may have been surprised when they spotted Lucca Allen in his Prime Video series, Clarkson’s Farm.

The 20-year-old recently moved to the Cotswold and nabbed a job in the farm shop – Diddly Squat!
Introducing the sports star into the series, Jeremy says: “Lucca is Didley Squat’s Swiss army knife. He’s a racing driver, he works at the farm shop, and he comes from a famous Irish culinary dynasty.”
Lucca showcased his culinary skills when he introduced Jeremy to nettle soup. He picked the nettles on the farmland and created a dreamy concoction.
“We’ve got nettles, we’ve got onions, we got spuds, salt and pepper, chicken stock, cream and butter,” he told Jeremy.

However, it doesn’t go well for the soup as they were only able to pick enough to make 80 pots and the short shelf life means that they’re not a popular seller in the farm shop. Especially when Jeremy prices them for £10 a pop.
Proud mam Rachel shared some of the scenes on Instagram, including the scene where they queried if he had his Environmental Health Certifications.
Rachel was quick to say: “He does have it. HACCP trained.”
