Jeremy Kyle, 53, links arms with fiancée Vicky Burton, 37, at Cheltenham Ladies Day after hanging out with Chris Hughes at the races
JEREMY Kyle and fiancée Vicky Burton looked loved up as they linked up at Cheltenham Ladies Day.
The TV star, 53, and his partner, 37, coordinated in sophisticated grey outfits for their day at the races - a day after Jeremy enjoyed a drink at the meet with Chris Hughes.
Jezza looked delighted to be back at the famous occasion, smiling as he walked through the grounds.
The couple were joined by a host of famous faces including Vogue Williams, Nigel Havers and Andy Murray.
Irish model Vogue caught the eye in a tartan dress coat for the glam day but kept her hand on her hat as the wind whipped up.
Tennis ace Andy opted for a similar coat to Jeremy, keeping his hands firmly tucked in his pockets.
The outing will come as welcome relief for Jeremy, who sparked a turf war brawl as he investigated moped muggings for his latest ITV show The Kyle Files and had to flee for his life as one gang member chased him with a knife.
As the petrified TV crew fled the London park, a lad was “knocked out” in the brawl.
The harrowing scene is shown in tonight's episode of the star's spin off show which also includes a heartbreaking interview with grieving mum Jan Pearce.

Her 31-year-old son Danny was stabbed 15 times after refusing to hand over a £7,000 watch to thugs and she tells Jeremy she wishes her son hadn't "put up a fight" because he might still be alive.
The show reveals that moped crime has increased 30-fold in five years, with 23,477 incidents in 2017 in London alone.
Jeremy interviews a former gang member, who says kids commit crime because they are damaged by their childhood.
And he talks to anonymous gang members who show no remorse, calling moped crime "quick money" and saying they get between £100 and £1000 for each bike.

But as he chats to them, lads from a rival gang started shouting at them, forcing the group to move.
Jeremy tells them to “do one” but within seconds two gang members ride towards them on bikes, with one shouting: “Come here (bleep). Let me talk to you lot bruv.”
The rival gangs then start fighting, the crew’s security guard tells the presenter to leave and, as Jeremy reveals in the voiceover, “a guy with a knife chases after us.”
As he runs Jeremy can be heard saying: “He’s knocked him out.”
Safely back in the car, Jeremy explains they were caught in a turf war.
He says: “Wow, wow. I guess that’s the reality. I’d guess you’d say that turned a bit nasty.
“Suddenly two youths - their area apparently - arrived on bikes and wanted us out.
“We’ve had to get out of there as quickly as possible, make sure the crew are okay. They were not happy.”
Speaking before the brawl, one gang member said they had started stealing mopeds at “11 or 12” because “someone showed them how to do it.”
The second said: “It was just so easy and it was a quick way of making money. You can get between £100 and £1000.”
Jeremy asked them if they ever spared a thought for the victim.
He added: “Somebody goes to work, grafts to buy their bike or the stuff that they want and you just what? Turn up on your moped, nick their stuff?”
One lad mumbles: “Mm, pretty much.”
