Jerry Springer has died at the age of 79, his agent confirmed on Thursday to the PA news agency.

The U.S. talk show host was best known for The Jerry Springer Show, which ran from 1991 until 2018 in the U.S.

His series inspired the UK’s The Jeremy Kyle Show, which ran on ITV between 2005 and 2019.

Springer was a British-born American broadcaster, journalist, actor, producer, lawyer and politician, who served as the 56th Mayor of Cincinnati from 1977 to 1978.

He was also a political campaign adviser to Robert F Kennedy.
