He'll join host Sharon Osbourne for The Talk live at 9pm on the panel with commentators JJ Anisiobi and Esther Krakue and actress Nicola Thorp.
Jezza already hosts a radio show for TalkRadio, which will also be broadcast on the network.
He is joining a prestigious line-up of media personalities including Piers Morgan and his Uncensored show, and political journalist Tom Newton-Dunn as part of the new channel's exciting portfolio.
The seasoned broadcaster helmed the The Jeremy Kyle Show for 14 years until 2019.

But after the shock death of a guest, the daytime programme was axed.
Jeremy said the cancellation of his beloved talk show and the subsequent fallout left him “completely devastated” and unable to "leave the house or even open the curtains.”
The presenter exclusively told The Sun how he spiralled into depression and turned to medication to control his anxiety, two-and-a-half years since the tragedy.
He explained: "I’m not asking for any sympathy, but being completely honest, yes, it was a very difficult time.
