Dr Phil's wildest moments ever from sexy vegan to pregnant with Jesus
Phil McGraw is waving goodbye to his popular chat show Dr Phil after 21 seasons on our screens.
The decision comes amid a major shake up of daytime TV schedules, with other programmes including The Ellen DeGeneres Show also being axed.
Over the past decade, Dr Phil has had his fair share of drama, bizarre stories and rather interesting guests and has fast become a guilty pleasure for many viewers.
The show has introduced us to some wild stories, including one man who claims to have written Taylor Swift's hits and a woman who believed she was pregnant with none other than the Baby Jesus.
As the daytime show comes to an end, we're taking a look back at some of Dr Phil's wildest moments throughout the years.
Dr Phil to end after 21 seasons on air in latest big change to talk shows
Pregnant with Jesus
Haley was adamant she was pregnant with Baby Jesus (DR. PHIL SHOW / HARPO PRODUCTIONS)In 2016, a teenager simply known as Haley appeared on the show to reveal to the world that she was nine months pregnant with Baby Jesus.
She was adamant about the identity of her baby, despite two failed pregnancy tests and a pelvic exam which said she wasn’t pregnant
While on Dr Phil, Haley underwent an ultrasound which also showed no evidence of a baby but she wasn't convinced.
"I don't care what the home pregnancy test or a doctor says, when I give birth to my baby, no one is going to deny him because he's my saviour," she told Dr Phil.
She underwent an ultrasound on the show (DR. PHIL SHOW / HARPO PRODUCTIONS)Three months after her first appearance, Haley returned to the show and said the phantom pregnancy had been caused by trapped wind.
She had been placed into a residential treatment following her first appearance and refused medications for the first two weeks because she thought she was pregnant.
However, all was soon revealed.
"I woke up one night and I thought I was having a contraction. I looked at my stomach and it went completely flat. It made me realise I wasn’t pregnant.
"I had a bunch of gas lodged in my stomach and I thought I was pregnant," she said.
Sexy vegan
The guest legally changed his name to sexy vegan (Youtube)Sexy Vegan is possibly one of the most memorable guests on Dr Phil, appearing on the show in 2017 after his family complained about his bizarre behaviour.

Originally named Hansel Marion DeBartolo III, he changed his name to Sexy Vegan and even had the words tattooed on his forehead.
His family weren't happy with the fact he walked around wearing speedos and always carried a full-length mirror with him.
Sexy Vegan appeared on the show with blue hair, his own theme song and no eyebrows.
He told the talk show host that he believes his mother should support him with his dead father's inheritance because he was too beautiful to get a job.
Cyber-stalker
Jasmine was the victim of cyber-stalking (Youtube)Jasmine appeared on Dr Phil to face her cyber-stalker Bailey, after she became convinced the pair were involved in an epic love story.
Bailey claimed Jasmine's tweet caused her to fall in love "at first post".
She would send Jasmine hundreds of messages a day and believed she was talking to Jasmine by moving things around in her apartment telekinetically.
Bailey harassed Jasmine online (Youtube)Jasmine said she was being harassed with messages, videos and nudes sent through a variety of social media platforms.
Bailey even downloaded a picture of Jasmine and created a fake phone contact who she would send messages to.
The meeting didn't go well, with Dr Phil asking Bailey to leave the show because she was trying to "play the victim".
Man believes he wrote Taylor Swift's hits
Riley said he wrote a number of songs (YouTube)Riley spoke to Dr Phil when he was 23 years old, insisting he had written hundreds of songs for multiple artists.
One of his biggest claims was that he worked with superstar Taylor Swift to write her hit song Shake It Off.
Riley is not credited on any of the songs he claims to have written.
What Riley didn't know when he went on the show was that Taylor's mother is a personal friend of Dr Phil and he called her to check Riley's story.
Neither Taylor nor her mother said they had ever heard of the wannabe songwriter.
Taylor denied knowing Riley (Getty Images for MTV)Dr Phil asked: "Is there any reason that she would tell me she's never met you, heard of you, or worked with you on a song?"
Riley tried to stick to his story at first before admitting his former drug use may have affected his thinking.
"I definitely admit that there's some questionable thought process going on. I've had to take into consideration that I might be wrong," he said.
Cash Me Ousside Girl
Danielle's appearance on Dr Phil became a popular meme (Harpo)Danielle Bregoli is perhaps the most famous guest in Dr Phil history and she became an instant internet sensation after her appearance on the show.
She was brought on the show by her mother who wanted to get her daughter help for her reckless behaviour, which included stealing cars, wielding knives and framing her mother for a crime.
During her interview, the audience could barely understand a word Danielle said, with her mum having to translate.

However, because of her accent, it sounded more like "Cash me ousside, ho bow dah?"
Danielle's tough persona and ridiculous catchphrases had viewers in stitches and she was catapulted to fame, even launching her own rap career under the persona Bhad Bhabie.
