Radio Star's Exit Sparks Unlawful Termination Fears
24 Mar
Summary
- Lawyer calls Jackie O's exit 'peculiar' amid termination questions.
- Henderson may have raised workplace issues before contract ended.
- Kyle Sandilands filed a multimillion-dollar lawsuit against ARN.

An employment lawyer has described the departure of Jackie 'O' Henderson from ARN Media as 'peculiar,' suggesting it may constitute unlawful termination. Henderson, 50, reportedly raised workplace concerns following an on-air dispute, which legally signifies asserting a workplace right. ARN Media's subsequent termination of her $100 million contract, claiming she gave notice of inability to work with co-host Kyle Sandilands, has drawn legal scrutiny. This sequence could lead to legal action if her contract was ended due to her complaints, potentially opening the door to damages under Australian Fair Work laws.
Meanwhile, Kyle Sandilands, 54, has filed a multimillion-dollar lawsuit against ARN Media. His legal team alleges the network deliberately sabotaged his $100 million, 10-year contract. ARN disputes these claims and intends to defend the proceedings. The network's CEO is reportedly attempting to persuade Henderson to return with a solo show, though she has denied reports of being offered an alternative role and appears to be observing Sandilands' legal strategy.
