<p>A small group of mourners attended the “community funeral” for 63-year-old construction worker Steve Dymond at Kingston Cemetery in Portsmouth, Hampshire.</p>
<p>The short graveside service, led by Canon Bob White, vicar of St Mary’s Church in Portsmouth, was attended by three women, a man and a girl.</p>
<p>After paying their respects and laying single roses, the mourners comforted each other before leaving the cemetery arm in arm.</p>
<p>The funeral was paid for by Portsmouth City Council because Mr Dymond did not have any close family to pay for the service.</p>
<p>An inquest opened last month into Mr Dymond’s death heard that he was found in his room in Portsmouth on May 9 after splitting from fiancee Jane Callaghan, from Gosport.</p>
<p>Detective Sergeant Marcus Mills, of Hampshire Police, told the hearing that the death was a suspected suicide.</p>

<p>The Jeremy Kyle Show has since been axed and Mr Dymond’s death comes amid growing scrutiny of the duty of care that reality TV shows have towards participants.</p>
<p>The inquest heard that Mr Dymond told his landlady he had gone on The Jeremy Kyle Show for a lie detector test to show he had not been cheating on Ms Callaghan.</p>
<p>He had said he was worried about the repercussions of the show and the subsequent rumours.</p>
<p>The inquest is set to resume for a full hearing on November 21.</p>
