RICHARD HAMMOND has been called out by Will Young, who branded The Grand Tour star “the worst” out of the trio after he claims “homophobic” jokes were made on the show.
Will Young said he was left “shocked and upset” after 51-year-old Richard Hammond and James May, 58, made what he regards as offensive jokes on an episode of the show. The comments he’s referring to were made when Jeremy Clarkson, 61, drove a pink Jeep Wrangler in the Colombia special back in 2019.
The Pop Idol star didn’t hold back as he branded Richard “the worst” of the trio in a new interview.
He said: “Jeremy Clarkson is the least worst.
“The other two, in my opinion, are worse. The worst one is Richard Hammond.
“He’s the worst because he says things like, ‘I’ve got lots of gay friends’.
He went on to accuse the producers of making the main narrative based on Jeremy driving a “hairdressers car”.
“Basically, Jeremy Clarkson is gay,” he explained.
In the scene, Jeremy was wearing a pink shirt as It’s Raining Men was played.
He went on to tell The Times: “It was Richard Hammond and it was the producers.
“They created the whole thing and it was Amazon that let it go out. I was so shocked and so upset.”
Express.co.uk has contacted a representative for Richard and The Grand Tour for comment.
Will hit out at the trio in a tweet at the time, where he branded them f****ng pathetic and actually homophobic”.
He went on to call them “repulsive” and “obtuse, bigoted immature babies”.
