Jeremy Kyle to become a dad for sixth time at 58 after testicular cancer battle

Former ITV presenter Jeremy Kyle has announced he will become a dad for the sixth time, as he shared the happy news that wife Victoria is expecting a baby girl.

The couple, who are already parents to son Oliver who was born in 2020, shared their happy news with Jeremy announcing that he's close to catching up to former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson with his clan of offspring.

Jeremy, who overcame testicular cancer in 2012, also joked about his sperm as he teased that he should "bottle it" as he will become a dad once again in his late 50s. Alongside wife Victoria, who Jeremy wed in 2021, the pair are expecting a baby girl due in early 2024 with Jeremy saying the couple are "over the moon" with the happy news.

Speaking to The Sun, Jeremy said: "Yes, baby number six is incoming, I’m catching BoJo up, to be honest! Vic says I need to set up a side business by bottling it because I’m 58 and I’ve only got one testicle, but everyone knows that anyway. It’s a baby girl, she’s due early next year, and we’re over the moon as our family is complete."

Jeremy added that his other children are really happy for him and Victoria, including eldest daughter Harriet who Jeremy joked thinks he needs "sectioning" for going through the newborn phase again later in life.

The news comes as Jeremy will be getting used to early mornings as he's set to front a new breakfast show with former Coronation Street actress Nicola Thorp. The pair will present breakfast on TalkTV from Monday 2 October, covering topical issues with the unlikely duo having opposing political views.

The programme is a return to mainstream TV after Jeremy Kyle was dropped by ITV in May 2019 after a participant died following an appearance on the show. Steve Dymond was found dead after failing a lie-detector test on the long-running daytime programme, prompting the show to be taken off air.

The news comes just a few weeks after the broadcaster was believed to have moved out of his £3million Windsor home as removal vans were spotted at the property. The former ITV star had lived in the property since the breakdown of his marriage with his ex-wife Carla Germaine in 2015.

Since then, Jeremy made it a home with his new family, but it appears they have now called time on their Windsor mansion. The big move comes after Jeremy and his ex-wife Carla put their six-bedroom Windsor marital home up for sale last month for £2,295,000. The lavish property has most certainly gone up in price in recent years, after the pair bought it in 2001 for £595,000.
