I don't see why that should make a difference though? He wasn't on this show to talk about those issues, he'd told the producers he wasn't going to discuss them, he told Matthew who kept pushing him (from what I gather, I didn't actually see anything other than that short clip), he was on the show for other purposes so harassing him about it was opportunistic and exploitative and nothing to do with the reasons they will have given him for inviting him on the show. And normally I'd say that people in the public eye are fair game for that sort of thing but exploiting someones mental health problems crosses a line imo.
I actually think Matthew Wright just wanted controversy from it, the way he reacted to him saying he wanted to walk off the show "well if that's what you want to do..." it's like he just wanted the attention that would come from a reaction. Bottom of the barrel 'journalism'.
