# Jeremy Kyle Show Guest Claims Kyle Egged On Audience to Boo Him
**A guest on the Jeremy Kyle Show**, **Stephen Dymond**, was deeply affected after undergoing a lie detector test on the show in May 2019, according to statements made in an inquest. Mr. Dymond, from Portsmouth, Hampshire, tragically passed away a week after the show was recorded. The inquest revealed that he died from a morphine overdose and left ventricular hypertrophy of the heart at his home in Portsmouth.
– Mr. Dymond’s son, **Carl Woolley**, shared with the inquest that his father was distressed after the show recording. He mentioned that Jeremy Kyle encouraged the audience to “boo him” and that his father felt unjustly labeled a liar when the lie detector test results were announced.
– **Leslie Dymond**, Stephen’s brother, also testified at the inquest, stating that Stephen had encountered a distressing experience on the show. He mentioned that Mr. Dymond was mocked and insulted by the presenter and the audience, causing significant emotional distress.
Mr. Woolley further revealed that his father reached out to him multiple times a day after the recording, expressing his upset and frustration. Despite receiving some after-care support from ITV, Mr. Woolley encouraged his father to seek more help. **Gerald Brierley**, Mr. Dymond’s cousin, recounted that Leslie expressed feelings of being mistreated on the show and had not received adequate assistance post-filming.
The inquest also disclosed **a note** left by Mr. Dymond for his son, expressing remorse, denial of accusations, and pride in his son. The purpose of the inquest, as outlined by **Coroner Jason Pegg**, is to investigate the circumstances surrounding Mr. Dymond’s passing without assigning blame to any individuals involved.
This tragic incident raises concerns about the **impact of reality TV** on participants’ mental health and the responsibility of show producers in safeguarding the well-being of guests. The inquest continues as the family seeks answers and justice for the untimely loss of Stephen Dymond.
