Taking to his Instagram account, the father-of-six posted a close-up snap of the delicious-looking fruit from the grounds of his expansive garden.

Jamie and Jools couldn't be more content with their idyllic country life. Jamie previously revealed that Essex holds a very sentimental meaning for the couple.

He told ES Magazine: "Home is a little village in Essex called Finchingfield. It's a beautiful little place and somewhere I used to take Jools on dates when we were younger.

"Before that, [home] was London for 25 years. After Covid, we decided to finally make the jump."

As for the rest of the house, Jamie and Jools' residence features ten bathrooms, two drawing rooms, and a great hall, while the grounds also include another six-bedroom 16th-century farmhouse, a three-bedroom lodge, and converted stables.

Despite their love for their Essex mansion, Jamie previously confessed that he wants to be buried in the pub next to his former London flat in Hampstead.

"I think my happiest time in London was living next door [to the Holly Bush Pub in Hampstead]," he told the publication.

"People told me not to move there, but I loved it. Even when Liam Gallagher was shouting through the letterbox saying, 'Make me a bacon sandwich,'" he continued.

Jamie and Jools share their home with their six children: Poppy Honey, 21; Daisy Boo, 20; Petal Blossom, 15; Buddy Bear, 13; and seven-year-old River Rocket.
