"Hey guys, it's me and Francis. We're back, We're ready to go. Where are we going Belvedere?," he spoke.
"Francis is my wonderful driving instructor. We're about to take my driving test.
"Here we go. The next time you see me, I've either passed or I've failed."
It seems Jamie did not quite know the name of the UK driving authority as he exclaimed: "D.V.L.S. What is it?"
Amongst his messages of support his teacher confirmed "D.V.L.A. We're coming for you baby!"
To which, a determined Jamie then practically shouted to the camera: "Suck on this!"
The video then cut to Jamie behind the wheel in the car as the text examiner prepared to give him his result.
"Right Ok. So are you happy for your company driver to hear the result of my feedback?," the official was heard asking as his teacher sat in the backseat of the car filming.
The official then confirmed: "That was the end of the test. Congratulations, you have passed."
Jamie was overjoyed as he celebrated in the car, mentioning the examiners name multiple times with utter happiness and excitement.
The Candy Kittens entrepreneur then gave a bit of post match analysis as he thought he actually failed the test.
He explained: "I thought I hit the curb and I was like, I've done for,"
Talking more to his text adjudicator he opened up on his journey on the road.
"It's taken me a long time to get this," Jamie admitted.
"I booked my theory test 70 times. Yeah, I only failed it a few times. I just had too much on."
Shaking the hand of the DVLA employee he then thanked him for his work as he said: "I love you so much."
He then spoke again directly into the camera to finish off the behind-the-scenes video of an emotional moment in his life.
"You know what I eat for breakfast? Fr***** driving instructor. Driving test man!
"Do you know what? When people doubt you, when people say you can't do something in life, you can do anything you want."
He ended the video by thanking his beloved teacher ad he added: "Francis. You're a fricking legend, baby. Come on!"
Confirming the amount of tests he either failed or was a no-show on, he captioned the clip: "70 Theory & 1 Missed Driving Test later - It’s the moment the world is waiting for 🚙."
