Jase Hawkins and Lauren Phillips were blindsided in 2023 when their Melbourne show was axed to make way for Sandilands, 54, and Henderson's big expansion into the city from Sydney

Sandilands and Henderson signed a 10-year deal with Australian Radio Network (ARN) in 2023, and have eight years left on the contract.

They were paid a reported $200 million in that landmark negotiation and earned approximately $47,000 per episode.

Henderson, 51, has been AWOL from the Kyle & Jackie O show since Friday, 20 February, after Sandilands, 54, accused Henderson of being unfocused at work.

During the on-air feud, Henderson broke down in tears when the pair were discussing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

Sandilands got angry at her when she proceeded to read out the disgraced royal's birth chart.

When Henderson attempted to defend herself and accused him of launching an attack on her, he stated he was only expressing the 'facts'.

She took a leave of absence following the altercation, and was expected to return to the show on March 2.

On Monday, it was announced that her return to the airwaves has been pushed back another week.

Sandilands started Tuesday's show by revealing that Henderson would return to the airwaves 'at some stage' - however, that was not to be.
