"Why?!"

That was the question Jeremy Kyle asked one Tyneside man who got his face tattooed on his backside.

ChronicleLive previously revealed how Ryan Porter got Jezza's face inked on his bum by pal and tattoo artist Jord Liddell.

And the pair appeared on the star's ITV show on Wednesday to explain their actions.

Shocked Jeremy even put his own face NEXT to the tattoo - as Ryan flashed his rear on national TV.

"It was mint - I even tried to give Jeremy a little budge with my bum to slap his face," laughed the Wallsend dad.

"And he loved the tattoo. I mean, he had to take the mick out of it a bit to make a show out of it, but off camera he told me I was crackers."

Now people don't dream that one day they'll end up on on The Jeremy Kyle Show.

Ultimately, it drags up images of broken families, lie detectors and paternity tests.

But Ryan and Jord were both asked to go on after Jezza caught wind of the permanent mural on Ryan's backside.

"I mean nobody wants to be one of those going on asking who their granddad is - but it was just a positive show and a good laugh.

"And I was treated like a celebrity - I can't praise the people involved enough, nothing is too much hassle when you're there.

"It was an amazing experience. I've never been handled and treat so well.

"From my front door, I was just looked after the whole time."
