WATCH: County Derry couple appear on Jeremy Kyle show
By Cathal McGuigan
A woman from Coleraine who may well be Jeremy Kyle’s biggest fan has appeared on the show with her partner.
Rosemary revealed that she watches the chat show every day and marvelled at Jeremy’s “strong grip” when shaking his hand.
She contacted the show to arrange a lie detector test to prove to her fianceé of 12 years, Trevor, that she was not having an affair. She said that she had recently taken off her engagement ring due to the couple’s arguments.
Speaking to Jeremy, Trevor said that the couple met at a bar in Ballymoney and that at the beginning of the relationship everything was great.
Yet, the relationship ran into difficulties when a relative of Trevor’s told him that Rosemary had kissed another man.
“I phoned her that particular night and she confessed that she did,” Trevor said.
He then said that the couple have not slept together for more than a year, that Rosemary “flirts with anybody” and had kissed a second man on another occasion.
Jeremy advised Trevor that “in your life, if somebody treats you in a way that is not acceptable, grow a pair and tell them that unless they change you’re going to walk in the opposite direction, because life’s too short.”
It was then that Trevor admitted that he had kissed another woman, causing Rosemary to pipe up from the green room to say that he had actually kissed “two flipping women.”
Rosemary would not appear on the stage initially as she said that Trevor was lying about their relationship.
“He said that there and he kissed a person at the start of the relationship and then he kissed another person before I even kissed the second man”
After being coaxed onto the stage by Jeremy, Rosemary said that she had caught Trevor kissing another woman in her kitchen.
She also revealed that the pair had initially kissed other people as part of a dare.
“How old are you eleven?,” asked Jeremy. “I don’t mean to be rude but it’s like a tit-for-tat school playground row.”
Rosemary said that she applied to do a lie detector test as she was “fed up of him sitting accusing me.”
She then revealed that she had a crush on Steve, the Jeremy Kyle bouncer, asking “what’s not to like about him?”
The results of the lie detector test showed that Rosemary had told Trevor about that she had ‘passionately kissed’ three people during their relationship, including another woman.
She revealed that the pair had both had an encounter with another couple at the start of the relationship.
After having some difficulty understanding the pair, Jeremy appeared to enjoy imitating their north coast accent.
Rosemary passed the lie detector test questions, revealing that she did not have sexual intercourse or sexual contact with another person and did not kiss anyone that Trevor did not know about. The emotional pair then kissed and made up.
Satisfied with the results, Rosemary revealed her love of the Jeremy Kyle show.
“I watch the show every morning, I watch Jeremy Kyle, I watch the Kyle Files and I watch Emergency Room as well. I even watch the repeats on ITV2,” Rosemary said.
On hearing this Jeremy advised her to “get a job”.
“I don’t want a job, I want to watch you on TV,” Rosemary replied.
“I seen a cardboard cut-out and I was going to lift it and do a runner.”
She then left with a gift from the talk show host.
“I’ve never told anybody this, you can have my cardboard cut-out,” Jeremy said.
“You can take it back to Northern Ireland if you promise me this, stop playing games and just be true and honest to each other, okay? Life is too short.”
