Jeremy Kyle Testifies at Steve Dymond Inquest

News summary

Jeremy Kyle appeared at Winchester Coroner's Court to give evidence at the inquest of Steve Dymond, who died a week after filming an episode of 'The Jeremy Kyle Show' in May 2019. Dymond, 63, reportedly took his own life after failing a lie detector test on the show, where he faced accusations of infidelity from his partner. Dymond's son testified that his father felt humiliated and 'cast as a liar' by Kyle and the audience, leading to severe emotional distress. The court heard that Dymond had a history of mental health issues, including previous suicide attempts and a diagnosis of depressive disorder. The show was cancelled shortly after Dymond's death, with ITV expressing shock and sadness over the incident. Kyle denied encouraging the audience to boo Dymond, but the inquest continues to examine the role of the show in his death.
