- Steve Wilkos will hold his most recent memory of late friend and mentor Jerry Springer close to his heart. The "Steve Wilkos Show" host spoke exclusively with Access Hollywood following the death of the talk show icon on Thursday and reflected on the last time they'd seen each other and why the conversation has so much more meaning to him now. "We reflected a lot and we shared a lot of old stories and he embraced me in a way that he'd never really embraced me. He gave me a hug and was telling me he loved me. I think he knew he was sick. I didn't even know he was sick until this morning because he looked the same to me," Wilkos continued. "I knew there was something off, but I certainly didn't know he had a terminal illness, or whatever he had. I think this was his way of saying goodbye to me."

The Jerry Springer Show was part of my childhood. Always loved his final thoughts. RIP legend.
They were the best. They never helped anyone lmao. R.I.P. Jerry.
Yes I use to watch it when I was a kid I’m 32 now
@@LifeAskmarie I’m 41 so I caught his show early back in the 90’s. The news hits us all the same though.
@@Filthy_Larry yup
Same. If I wasn't in school when I started watching it in the afternoon, I had Jerry Springer on. My grandfather made me turn it off a few times. Lol. I was 15. But I still loved the show & it's very sad to hear this. U can see how hurt Steve is. 💔 🙏
We know people die. But we all wanted to have Jerry alive for as long as we live, because he was such an icon. We feel a part of our experience missing.
I wanted to go to a taping of something he hosted. I felt terrible when I got the news. Never thought I'd see the day. 😡😭
This crazy jewish are is just another envious instigator from Hell.His life is gone.He missed the Train and his arse is getting grilled down there.He would wish to comeback and obey God Almighty.Zionists flooded societies with filth
😢 💯 losing Jerry made these past days even harder The footage of memories run in my head over and over
He was such a piece of shit father is what he was. A true definition of a dead beat.
So true!!
My sister said it best.."before there was reality TV there was Jerry"
Rest in peace Jerry springer.
Steve! Steve! Steve
Actually there was Reality TV before Jerry Springer it was MTV's Real World which began like in the Way early 1990s also that whole MTV Spring Break in the 1980s. As Jerry helped make it more Wyld n Crazy!
@@SchofieldAJ 🤷🏾♂️
@@SchofieldAJ Curious... Did you play Debbie Downer in SNL?
@@j0ellyfish Nope! As I was just mentioning MTV started the whole Reality TV thing just Shock TV like Jerry Springer n all them others made it more wyld n crazy n more fun to watch!
@@SchofieldAJ How old are you?
MTV for me was music videos before youtube even existed. So, please. Tell me.
My heart goes out to Jerry's family, and friends, even those that worked with him on the show!!!💔😪
Jerry was a sweet 🧁 soul he gave me a hug when I went to his show and I'll never forget his loving embrace the gentleness of his face🫂😭💔
@@megarainbowluv1 I met him and Steve.
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND EACH OTHER
YOU WILL TRULY BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN
R.I.P
🤴 SPRINGER
Well said!!! You hit it on the head!
YEEEEESS!!!! Always a reminder to be good to each other. It's obvious by Steve's reaction that Jerry lived by those words.
Amazing!
JERRY JERRY JERRY
Marie you’re a beautiful woman ..
You can see the sadness in Steve's eyes,hard to believe he's really gone,Jerry will be missed by so many people. May he RIP 😪💔🙏
He's still alive technically but up in heaven.
My prayers to Jerry family and friends my u RIP Jerry In the Lord hands and may the Lord keep your family safe ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 So sorry Steve for your lost I see the sadness in your eyes 💔💔💔 Bless you and keep your family safe ❤️ u will see him again one day 💔💔💔💔💔
This is like Steve losing his second father. He gave him his career and we all know how close these two were. Jerry will always be with us and when you hear loud claps of thunder, that's God laughing at his new show up in heaven. Rest in power Jerry. And in his infamous words, "Take care of yourself, and each other!"
Hit me pretty hard tooo. I have to admit I mourned when I found this out and had to watch a few hours of old school Jerry to laugh my ass off. Thank you Jerry for the memories and laughs.
@@Filthy_Larry They were very close, indeed.
He'll be missed
Who are the people reading comments thinking that Steve Wilkos should be at Springer's funeral/memorial service?
@@lamarjohnson4023 He only died yesterday.
Nowadays It's a Blessing To Be 79 yrs Old....Rest Jerry! I'm Sure it's many in Heaven that was on your Show!
Yes❤❤❤❤Rest well
Steve we’re all sorry for your loss for your best friend and buddy just remember he will always love you and everyone else just remember him being happy for you 🥹 he will always look after you always ❤ rest in peace jerry springer 💙✝️💙
agreed
I second that. Jerry Springer was a part of the Big 3 of talk show hosts(along with Maury Povich and Steve Wilkos). He will be missed.
Very sorry for your loss he will always be in your memories and heart.
Goodbye Jerry…..
@@KingDragonBoyPrime1998 🤣🤣🤣 one piece of ✡️ 🐍 less ☺️ Thank you Jesus 🙏
You can tell he is so hurt by his death. RIP Jerry. You will be missed!
This is so sad rest in peace Jerry 😭
We will miss you Jerry so sad
Hearing of Jerry's passing this morning, really made me sad. So many memories watching his show with my older brother. RIP to a pop culture icon, a pioneer and a legendary man.
Same here. It was one of those piece time things and we ate chicken wings while watching it.
I hear you. My mom was watching that when I was growing up. I even watched it when I was 14. Those people would fight like animals.
Fact!
As people are sad for his passing. We must remember that he is not living in pain anymore.
That’s what I hope for Bruce Willis. No more pain.
@@Filthy_Larry think 🤔 soon for BW to think he hurting big time
@@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987 i worked in a nursing home. No one was to lose their mind.
That's amazing that Steve did not know Jerry was sick until his death. Condolences to him and the Springer family.
Kind of makes you wonder how Steve would feel had he NOT went out for cigars with Jerry on the day Jerry came to tell him goodbye.
RIP Jerry, so sorry for your loss Steve.
My heart breaks for Steve!!!! RIP Jerry!!!! Sending love to everyone who loved him 🌹
So happy Jerry got to spend his last moment with Steve and got a chance to say goodbye to his bestfriend, not everyone get a chance to say goodbye. RIP Jerry we love and will miss you, I have so much good memory of his show growing up.
You can see the pain in his eyes.
I literally bawled my eyes out yesterday standing next to my dads alter. My dad and I would watch Jerry every weekend morning. It was a routine and a very missed routine.
He was a big part of my childhood and a legend that will be severely missed. I hope you're hanging out with my dad and all of our loved ones up there.
Sorry for you and your family's loss of your dad as well! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This program was part of my life as a teen. Jerry is like a family.
I still can't believe that Mr Springer has passed away. He will be missed.Thank You Steve for Sharing This message.
❤
He's been crying, I just want to give him a big hug and tell him to stay strong. Just goes to show that even the strongest, most tough men can be reduced to tears when they lose those they love. Jerry and Steve were a great pair, and it's hard to say goodbye
😢
Burn Jerry Burn! 🔥
Praying for him and his family
That's so true. U can definitely see he's been crying & very hurt. As strong as he is. He's definitely grieving. 💔
My condolences on the loss of your friend Jerry. Millions of us loved him. Legend!
I remember watching the show where Jerry tells Steve: "I'm not your father."
Just as we viewers were getting used to watching Judge Jerry Springer. I'd love to see Jerry share a courtroom with Judge Judy. Watching them butt head's against each other.
Television magic at its finest. RIP Jerry. You deserve it for dealing with all the crazies on your show. There were enough of them to make me drink.
poor Steve he lost a good father like figure like Jerry. Deeply sad to see a big man like Steve to cope with this. We're all with you Steve. Rest peacefully Jerry. *(Throws his chair for such a tragic loss)* Bye Jerry :(
Jerry was a excellent guy. Huge heart for everyone. He will be deeply missed. 😢 best thoughts prayers best wishes for his family
I'm 27 and I grew up on Jerry and Steve!!!
As soon as I learned he passed...I thought of you Steve...I have seen your career start with him to having your own show and beyond...In all the crazy many of our childhoods and early adulthood was affected by his show...even being at Grandma house. RIP man😢 hang in there Jerry fam.
One of my closest friends growing up visited me the day before he passed away, we did the same he was around longer than usual, we went down memory lane & had made plans for that night - that fell through bc I got off too late & the next morning I woke up to him being on life support from a car accident & I never got to see him again but I’ll remember that last conversation & that hug. 😭❤️ idk if people mean to say goodbye without saying it but it definitely happens. Truly heartbreaking, Steve & jerry was a huge part of my growing up. Such great men❤ may he rest in peace
Sorry for the loss of your friend 🙏🏾
sorry for your loss 🤍
😢😞😓😥😢
Sorry for your loss same thing happened to me on Easter Sunday a few weeks ago..one of my favorite friend who was more like a sister wanted her hair done..but she had just got it done 2 weeks prior with braids..when I seen her she had taken out her braids and just wanted me to wash her natural hair( she never wore her natural hair) I told her how beautiful she looked and the next day ( Easter Sunday) her brother called me and said her husband found her passed away in her sleep that afternoon..she woke up at 9 am laid back down and he found her a few hrs later unresponsive it broke my ♥ tremendously..I'm still in disbelief she didn't smoke or drink or do drugs ..I'm thinking she started taking a weight loss pill and it could have made her have a heart attack??? She was only 35 yrs old 😢 it's been a rough few weeks..I miss her so much 😢 😢
I am so very sorry for your loss!!!💜🙏💜👉💯👈
I'll never forget my dad always had Jerry springer in TV in the morning. I remember waking up every Monday through Friday to Jerry and the smell of coffee. If mom wasn't home, dad would let me sit and watch with him lol. R.I.P Jerry. We're all gonna miss you buddy.
Steve I'm so very sorry for the loss of your friend. He was an amazing man. May he R.I.P.
Jerry keeping it classy even his farewell to Steve, what a Gentleman 🙏💗
Rest in Peace Jerry Springer we will never forget you and your family members.🙏 ❤️ Born 1944-2023.
Everyday with Jerry left an everlasting memory, Rip ,Jerry Jerry Jerry, 💗
Jerry and Steve were such a part of my middle school to early 20s life. I'm in shock that he's passed and I'm sure Steve thought of him like a second father figure. I have Cincinnati relatives so I even remember in the 80s when he was a local news anchor
This made me cry😭I know Steve and his wife Rachel are devastated. Jerry was a wonderful person and he will be missed🙏
Steve Wilkos, thank you for your kind and beautiful words about Jerry and my condolences to you as well. Jerry truly was a very funny, kind and good hearted man. His heart was on the right place, especially for others. I can remember the times where I would laugh at his humor and jokes during certain shows, but also respecting him for his patience he had with people slinging so much dirt at him, or me sitting at the edge of my seat when Jerry almost attacked someone. That part I will never forget. The show has always stuck by me, from the annoying KKK clan coming on the show pissing me off, to the most hilarious situations, Steve Jumping in during fights, or the bodyguard walking on his hands. It truly was a mix of humor, annoyance, tensity, chaos, sadness and shock. But it was something that was never and never will be forgotten. Jerry might not be with us anymore and the show and all of it's glory is now just a memory, but the memory, and most importantly Jerry, who has brought us all so much joy, entertainment and laughs, will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace, Jerry Springer.
"JERRY! JERRY! JERRY!"
We are all devastated. Jerry will be missed. Jerry helped my daughter dream come true with her first job working with television. Rest in peace, Jerry for you are loved. ❤️
I can't believe such icon is gone left us but will never be forgotten
Sending my deepest condolences to Steve& Rochelle Wilkos, and Jerry's Family. He will be missed .

I was shocked to hear this today. I remember watching him as a teenager way back. Prayers go out to Steve and Jerry's family and friends. RIH Jerry Springer!!!
@threekids2love I was shocked, _too._ 😨 _I_ first found out (about Jerry's passing) on _Facebook_ a few hours ago & thought it was just one of those 'celebrity death hoaxes', so I Googled it. Sadly......
RIP Jerry 🕊🌷
@@morganjanelle4282 my daughter told me and I did the same checked Google and unfortunately it was true. ):
Me too same here I was very shocked 😳 too. I was saying to myself that this is not true, because social media can make up rumors too. One of my friends called me and told me that Jerry Springer had passed away from pancreatic cancer, I was like WHAT omg 😳 I cried that day. Jerry Springer I will never forget him. Take care of yourself and each other 😢🕊️🙏 fly high
This is unbelievable, I love Jerry. condolences to his family ❤
I'm always gonna be grateful for watching his show when i was a little boy with my mom. May Jerry rest in peace.
This is seriously sad, a true and long life friendship. Sending condolence's to Steve and the past and current worker's for Jerry and Jerry's whole family and close friends. Thanks for entertaining us Jerry with your unique style.
To live life and be able to love the people in your surroundings is a testament to a life well lived.

R.I.P. Jerry Springer! Steve I’m so sorry for your loss, Jerry loved you and your family. He was a wonderful man, caring person. I was shocked to hear he died. 😢💔🙏 My condolences and prayers to his family and yours.
Aww Steve is hurting you can see it in his face. It's hard when you loose a loved one. God bless the Springer and the Wilkos family .
Gonna miss Jerry. I haven't watched his show since I was a kid in the late 90's. Now I've been binge watching re-runs and forgot how hilarious and addicting that show was. I think because he was such a nice guy and had a genuine heart, adults looked up to him and that gave us a free pass to watch his show.
Jerry Springer final thoughts were real, I felt them each and everytime, rest in peace, i wanted to meet you someday but unfortunately too late now, rest in peace my friend
So sorry for the loss of your good friend Steve my deepest sympathies to you all.
Ugh!🥺 Steve made me cry! 💔
Such a big part of my teen years/life..
We LOVE Jerry!! ❤ He will be missed.
My condolences..🖤🥀🕊
I love both of these guys. REST IN PEACE JERRY SPRINGER.i love how well Steve speaks of his old friend.
Jerry was amazing and I was shocked to hear of his passing. I’m so sorry for your loss! It’s great that you guys had such a great connection!

Steve for your kind words of appreciation of your good friend Jerry Springer. Jerry was actually the true first reality show in his own right, he brought the different types of people to the screen and the problems that existed amongst is guests, he opened the world's eyes to all that exists out there with people, and through his guests and they show he taught us how to be better people his reruns will always be funny, informative, and educational. Is that the show Judge Jerry was equally as great. He will be missed for his laughter his humor, and above all his kindness to all that he met.
My deepest sympathy to the springer family. Thank you Jerry for the entertainment. RIP. FROM SOUTH AFRICA 🙏💔

I will never forget being at work at the firehouse in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. I was the young guy at the time and introduced Jerry to those old salty guys that were soon to retire. EVERY shift we would watch Jerry on TV and had the most fun!! The show was total insanity and watching those guys on my truck laughing so hard with tears coming out was the best times ever!!!!! Man I miss those days!!! And I miss those guys who are now gone. Jerry Springer was the best!!❤
We've known Steve as long as we knew Jerry. I can't believe he passed. I'm still in shock. RIP! 🕊
