Kyle Sandilands Open to Settlement Amid Court Battle

is reportedly open to a settlement with ARN as court dates loom for both him and former co-host . 

A source told news.com.au that Sandilands is eager to avoid a drawn-out trial and would consider a 'reasonable' offer from his former employer.   

'If there was a reasonable figure that made him feel like he didn’t get totally f***ed over… yeah,' the source said.

'He is a righteous guy, and he could just go, "Let’s take this to the end", but no one loves the idea of court.'

The source added that beyond the prospect of a lengthy court battle, Sandilands was 'not interested' in hearing any more 'unflattering' claims about him – such as those contained in .

They suggested that the financial burden the court action could impose could also influence a decision to resolve the matter quickly.

'Kyle and Jackie are playing with their own money here,' the source said.

The publication also claimed that Sandilands could be open to if a deal could be reached with ARN.

The source added that Sandilands is looking ahead to future opportunities and potential radio co-hosts if Henderson is not interested in reviving their partnership.

With speculation swirling about who that might be, the source claimed that Sophie Monk was the 'logical next step' for Sandilands. 

'When Kyle pops back on-air, I wouldn’t be surprised if Sophie is the co-host,' they said. 'She is fantastic, lovely with everyone and very giving on-air.'

Meanwhile, both Sandilands and Henderson are set to have their day in Federal Court next week.

The pair are expected to appear before Justice Angus Stewart in separate case management hearings on Friday, April 24.

If both attend, it could be the first time they have crossed paths since their now fateful on-air clash on February 20.
