Jeremy Kyle Show RETURNS to Instagram – fuelling speculation the show will be back

The Jeremy Kyle Show was recently cancelled following the shock death of contestant Steve Dymond, who tragically overdosed after failing a lie detector test.

And following ITV's decision to scrap the show, its website and social media pages were swiftly deleted, and all previous episodes were removed from ITV Player.

However, now fans have begun speculating that the show could be back already, just days after it was pulled off air.

Tongues started wagging after the official Instagram page re-emerged, showing familiar pictures of Jeremy and his team, as well as some of his previous guests.

It is not known why the official page has been put back up, and there is currently no indication of a show return.

Mirror Online has contacted ITV for comment.

A return would certainly please a lot of loyal fans, with as many as 21 petitions being launched in the wake of its cancellation.

Thousands have signed in a bid to rescue the programme, also launching a Twitter drive with the hashtag #bringbackjeremykyle.

However, despite their desperation, a comeback is looking less and less likely for ITV's long running daytime hit.

In recent days, a large majority of the public have spoken out against the programme, with several comparing it to Love Island, and suggesting the dating show should also get the axe.

Plus, Dymond's death has since prompted other guests to speak out against the show and its aftercare, with show execs reportedly bracing themselves for a number of legal challenges fin the coming weeks.
