Jeremy Kyle breaks silence on claims chat show guests were 'exploited'

Jeremy Kyle has broken his silence following a Channel 4 documentary on the downfall of his self-titled chat show.

The 56-year-old presenter insisted "there are two sides to every story" during an appearance on TalkRADIO on Monday. The documentary touched on the death of tragic Steve Dymond, who took his own life after he "failed" a lie detector test on the show, which suggested he had cheated on his ex-fiancée Jane.

Channel 4's hour-long watch - the first episode of which aired on Sunday - included former staff claiming guests were "exploited". Jeremy fronted the show for 14 years before it was axed in 2019.
