Jerry Springer’s family confirmed on April 27 that the talk show host has died. He was 79 years old. “Jerry’s ability to connect with people was at the heart of his success in everything he tried, whether it was politics, broadcasting or just joking with people on the street who wanted a photo or a word,” the family statement confirmed. “He’s irreplaceable and his loss hurts immensely, but memories of his intellect, heart and humor will live on.” Jerry “died peacefully” at home in the suburbs of Chicago, according to the spokesperson. He had been diagnosed with cancer a few months prior to his death.
The late star was best known for hosting The Jerry Springer Show, which aired for 27 seasons before coming to an end in 2018. Before his time on television, he served one term as the mayor of Cincinnati in 1977. He was also on Cincinnati’s City Council prior to that. The Jerry Springer Show premiered in 1991.
