Jeremy Kyle's teenage daughter had to be taken to hospital after she was bitten by a spider, the presenter has revealed.

Dad Jeremy spoke about the ordeal on Mike Graham's TalkTV show, saying his 17-year-old daughter Ava was bitten during the festive period.

The presenter, 57, told Mike: "This is a genuinely true story. Two days before Christmas my daughter was bitten by a spider in her sleep. Nobody knew anything about it.

"She ended up in hospital."

Jeremy shares his children Harriet, 32, Alice, 18, Ava and son Henry, 13, with his ex-wife Carla Germaine.

He became a dad again in 2020 when Vicky Burton gave birth to their son Oliver, with the couple marrying in October 2021.

Jeremy returned to our screens on TalkTV in October, almost four years after his controversial daytime chat show was axed.

He was once dubbed The King of Daytime, before the daily show came to an abrupt end after guest Steve Dymond was found dead at home days after failing a lie detector test on the show in 2019.

After years away from TV, Jeremy revealed ahead of his show launch that he feels strong enough to reignite his career on-screen.

He had been working on radio, but confessed the pull of television was too much to resist, joking he's happy to play "warm up" to Piers Morgan on TalkTV.

Speaking to The Sun, he said: "To get back and have the confidence to do this again after the journey I’ve been on feels brilliant. Just getting on air is already a huge leap for me from where I was a few years ago."

He praised his family for helping him during the tough period in his career, saying they had been "so supportive". He added: "A new show and a new way of doing things, at a brand new TV station that really feels like it’s going places.

"This is a huge thing for me. I was in a bad place for a while."

Last year, the inquest into Mr Dymond's death was postponed after his mum died. Her funeral was set to take place on the second day of the inquest and a coroner said he was postponing it on "compassionate grounds".

Mr Dymond died at his Portsmouth home a week after filming for the former hit ITV show in May 2019.

Despite criticism of the show in the years that followed, counsellor Graham Stainer, who worked on the show, defended it earlier this year, saying the programme helped thousands of people via counselling, family mediation and anger management sessions.
