Jackie O Missing Second Week After Clash With Kyle

's return to the airwaves has been extended for another week after her explosive on-air clash with co-host . 

The radio star, 50, broke down in tears on Friday, February 20, when Kyle slammed her over an apparent 'fixation' with astrology. 

She took a leave of absence last week, and was expected to return to The Kyle & Jackie O show on Monday. 

However,  Kyle revealed that his co-star would be off air this week as well.

Speaking briefly about her absence, he said he had no more information than listeners, adding that Jackie would return to the airwaves 'at some stage.'

He also hinted that staff tasked with managing the situation were unsure about when she would return.

It comes after Kyle dismissed reports his long-running radio show had come to an end after he was absent from Thursday's show. 

Speaking on Friday's broadcast, Sandilands addressed headlines suggesting he had been pulled from the airwaves, insisting his absence was simply due to a sick day.

The presenter explained he had been up through the night caring for his unwell baby.

'I haven't vanished, everyone,' he said at the start of the show.

'According to the newspapers, The Kyle & Jackie O show was over, and I vanished. It just goes to show you can never believe what you read in any of the newspapers.

'I feel they may have had their phones cut off; no one even rang to check.'

Kyle said his three-year-old son Otto had been coughing throughout the night.

'It was a hard night [with the baby]; every time he coughed I sort of [woke up], then I had a headache,' he said.
