Jeremy Kyle has lifted the lid on how he feels six years after the axe of his controversial show in a new tell-all interview with Kate Garraway.

The presenter, 59, argued in September that his name had ‘finally been cleared’ after a coroner ruled there was ‘no causal link’ between the appearance of a guest on his show and his death. 

Now, Jeremy will return to screens on ITV as the special guest on the latest episode of Kate Garraway’s Life Stories, which returns later this year.

Each episode focuses on a different celebrity as Kate explores their extraordinary careers and the ups and down of the personal lives.

According to The Sun, Jeremy tells Kate in the upcoming instalment: ‘I understand entirely that the Kyle Show had to fall on its sword as a result of that. You can be the king of the castle one day and the next day not allowed in the castle grounds.

‘We launched in 2005, that was just before the advent of social media and I think that changed everything.’

He added: ‘Many people were invested in it. The world has changed dramatically – you can’t say boo to a goose now, can you?’ 

Jeremy admitted his famous show would never be comissioned today, but he is still ‘proud’ of the numbers it did and ‘the people that we genuinely helped’. 

The infamous Jeremy Kyle Show ran for 14 years and broadcast more than 3,300 episodes, achieving viewing figures of up to one million. 

The axing came after Steve Dymond, from Portsmouth, Hampshire, is believed to have killed himself aged 63, seven days after he failed a lie detector test over his faithfulness to his partner on the controversial programme in May 2019.

An inquest last year revealed that it was would be ‘speculative’ to suggest the presenter and his show played a role in his death.

This resulted in The Jeremy Kyle Show, which saw guests try to resolve personal issues with the help of the presenter, wrap up in May 2019 after 14 years. 

The backlash led to тιԍнтer rules within the TV industry and revised welfare measures, particularly in reality series. 

And Jeremy has been off the ITV airwaves since his show was canned, with broadcast appearances largely limited to his hosting role on Talk TV.

Jeremy’s interview will mark a rare occasion where he becomes the victim of a grilling, with the daytime presenter set to quiz him on his career highs and lows, as well as his life off-screen.

Piers Morgan left the eponymous Life Stories in 2018 after 100 episodes and nine years at the helm and was replaced by daytime TV presenter Kate.

She hosted three episodes in 2022, interviewing footballer John Barnes, chef Nadiya Hussain and singer Charlotte Church, and is now preparing questions for the series’ latest run.

Jeremy teased his comeback on Instagram in January with a post which saw him posing in front of the ITV logo while wearing navy suit trousers, an open white shirt and brown Oxford shoes. 

On his show, Jeremy would attempt to resolve personal conflicts between guests, often using props such as lie detectors alongside psycH๏τherapist Graham Stanier, and regularly discussion broke out into full-scale arguments. 

Last year, area coroner Jason Pegg found that show guest Mr Dymond had taken his own life, but ruled it would be ‘speculative’ to suggest the presenter and his programme played a role in his death. 

Mr Pegg said although the TV star could be ‘quite critical’, there was ‘insufficient evidence’ that Jeremy’s comments ‘contributed to his distress’. He could not, however, conclude whether or not Mr Dymond, 63, lied during his lie detector test.

The Winchester inquest previously heard how Mr Dymond was ‘booed’ by the audience during the filming after the test suggested he had been lying about having not cheated on his partner.

He was also slammed by Jeremy, who said: ‘Grow a pair of balls and tell her the God-damn truth.’

The presenter later argued he had an ’empathetic’ on-air style.

Prior to The Jeremy Kyle Show, the host had success on radio with a similar format, fronting Jezza’s Virgin Confessions on Virgin Radio and then Capital Confessions, later rebranded The Jeremy Kyle Show, on Capital FM.

During the show’s run, Jeremy occasionally presented Good Morning Britain and fronted ITV reality show Jeremy Kyle’s Emergency Room for two series.
