Countryfile’s Adam Henson gives insight into wife’s different diet and makes vow

Adam Henson outlines impact of UK drought on farmers

Countryfile host Adam Henson is best known for fronting the successful BBC programme since 2001, but one thing most viewers won’t know is that his wife follows a very different diet to him.

Adam is married to Charlotte Henson – nicknamed Charlie – and the pair live together on their farm in the Cotswolds with their two children.

However, depsite Adam being a meat-eater, he has previously revealed that his wife is a vegetarian.

Talking about what he and his son eat, he said to the Mirror in 2019: “He’s very much all for living off the land and eats the meat bred on his farm when he can.

“But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t appreciate a plant-based diet.”

He added: “I must start growing more veggies. My partner and daughter are vegetarians, but my son and I eat meat.”

Despite their different lifestyle choices, Adam and Charlotte share a very close bond.

He opened up how Charlotte “nagged” him to apply for the job on Countryfile when it was first advertised.

Adam revealed: “Countryfile did a presenter search, and although I wasn’t bothered, my partner nagged me about it, as she thought I’d be really good.

“After lots of auditions, I ended up getting the job. At first I was only working once a month, then when it went prime time, the viewing figures went up to six million, and that was that.

“But when the BBC chuck me in the bin – which they will do sooner or later – I will just go back to being a farmer. That’s my proper job.”

Countryfile airs Sunday nights at 7pm on BBC One.
