Jamie Oliver’s Camper Van Adventure
So it IS true.
We broke the story TV chef Jamie Oliver ‘s production company denied — and today it was confirmed.
On 24 Feb we announced that Jamie was going to live in a camper van in Italy for his next series. Today he set off on his trip. We wish him well.
Jamie Oliver and wife Jools make a meal of their tearful farewell – as he set off on the six-week cooking tour. The gossip in London’s Primrose Hill is that Jamie is not a happy man. Whether his marriage is truly on the rocks or it is being done for the benefit of the cameras remains to be seen.
Jamie has become a national hero since he reinvented school food, and a knighthood cannot be far off.
Now he will reinvent off-grid cooking. A new TV show will follow Oliver on a trip round Italy in a converted camper van carrying all his kitchen kit.
It is no coincidence at all that Sainsbury’s is overhauling its Italian food range under the single banner of Simply Italian.
