Jeremy Kyle will be “back soon to have his say”, his new management company has said.

The TV star’s comeback was teased in a post on Instagram by celebrity agency The Can Group, who said Kyle “exclusively signed” to them after he battled “the unimaginable consequences of a devastating tragedy” over the past year.

They praised Kyle’s “hugely successful eponymous talk show” – which was taken off the air by ITV last year following the death of a guest – as well as his work on prime-time TV, including his investigative show The Kyle Files.

No further details of Kyle’s plans were revealed.

His controversial talk show, a regular fixture in the TV schedules since 2005, was cancelled in May last year after an outcry following the death of guest Steve Dymond.

Kyle, 54, was asked to appear before MPs but did not do so, while MPs accused ITV Studios of “corporate failure of responsibility”.

The issue of aftercare was already in the spotlight following the deaths of former Love Island contestants Sophie Gradon and Mike Thalassitis.
