The Jeremy Kyle Show has been cancelled indefinitely following the death of a participant who died shortly after recording an episode.

An ITV spokesperson said:

“Everyone at ITV and The Jeremy Kyle Show is shocked and saddened at the news of the death of a participant in the show a week after the recording of the episode they featured in and our thoughts are with their family and friends.”

“ITV will not screen the episode in which they featured.”

“Given the seriousness of this event, ITV has also decided to suspend both filming and broadcasting of The Jeremy Kyle Show with immediate effect in order to give it time to conduct a review of this episode of the show.”
