"Buddy is the star": Jamie Oliver's son scores his own show
Buddy Oliver is a chip off the old block after landing his own cooking show for the BBC, according to reports.
The 12-year-old has already made a name for himself with his YouTube channel Cooking Buddies, where he creates cooking tutorials with his famous dad, the iconic Jamie Oliver, in their family home.
With an impressive fanbase of over 133,000 subscribers, Buddy's skills have been recognised and he is now reportedly set to appear on the small screen.
"Buddy has taken all of his dad's experience on board and is about to put it into play with his own cookery show," a source told The Sun.
The budding cook will reportedly be joined by other kids on the show, who will learn tips from him on how to get started on cooking.
"Jamie's fans have long been asking for his son to have his own show for their kids to enjoy," the source added, claiming that Buddy will be the star of the show.
"Buddy is the star of the show. Jamie is keen for his son to prove himself to telly audiences, not just live off the family name.
"So Buddy's got to showcase his technical skills and presenting ability. But if his YouTube work is anything to go by, it'll be natural for him," the source said.
Buddy is the second youngest of Jamie's children with his wife Jools.
He has three older sisters Poppy, 21, Daisy Boo, 20, and Petal, 14, and a younger brother seven-year-old River Rocket.
