Guzzle 6.x / Not getting expected result

I have a restful API. when I run POSTMAN on the following URL, I receive as response as follows:

POSTMAN RUN URL
DELETE
https://www.example.com/api/v1/Blog/blog/13


      {
      "status":"Failure",
      "message":"The specified blog post could not be found"
      }

The above is of course expected, however, I am unable to read in "status" and "message". How do I get that reply? Here is my present code:

      $entry_id = $this->uri->segment(3);
      $theUrl = $this->config->item('base_url').'api/v1/Blog/blog/'.$entry_id;
      // tested $theUrl and works 
      $client = new GuzzleHttp\Client([
        'base_uri' =>       $theUrl,
        'timeout'  =>       3.0,
        'http_errors' =>    FALSE
        ]);
      $response = $client->delete($theUrl);
      $code = $response->getStatusCode();
      $response = $client->delete($theUrl); 
      $x = $response->getBody();

 echo "<pre>";
 echo var_dump($x);  // cannot see message or status anywhere.
 echo "</pre>";

Your suggestions much appreciated.

+++ I have now tried this revised code but still cannot see the STATUS or MESSAGE date in the reply:

    $entry_id = $this->uri->segment(3);

    $theUrl = $this->config->item('base_url').'api/v1/Blog/blog/'.$entry_id;
    $client = new GuzzleHttp\Client([
        'timeout'  =>       3.0,
        'http_errors' =>    FALSE
        ]);
    $response = $client->delete($theUrl, ['debug' => true]);
    $code = $response->getStatusCode();
    $x = $response->getBody();

    echo "<pre>";
    echo var_dump($x);
    echo "</pre>";

    die();

Here is the dump and the debug info:

In according to docs. You should do

$x = $response->getBody()->getContents();

Or cast body to string:

$x = (string)$response->getBody()

I think the base_uri parameter for new GuzzleHttp\Client is not needed. The base_uri parameter is used to set a base url. (http://docs.guzzlephp.org/en/latest/quickstart.html?highlight=base_uri) All calls to the client should then use relative uris. Since you are using an absolute url in the delete function call, you should not need the base_uri parameter.

Also you are calling the delete function twice: $response = $client->delete($theUrl).
