Kyle Sandilands Saga: Shocking Twist Revealed!

was reportedly never formally accused of bullying , despite allegations from his former employer.

Australian Radio Network (ARN), through its subsidiary Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation (CBC),

They allege that Sandilands created a workplace so toxic that Henderson refused to ever work with him again.

However, a source close to Sandilands told news.com.au that he was never made aware of any complaints or official warnings about his behaviour.

'I could not be more clear, there was never anything about his behaviour towards Jackie – not a single thing,' the source said.

A key component of ARN's statement of claim is a letter from management sent to Sandilands on 12 December 2025, in which the shock jock was told to comply with the network's safe work and code of conduct policies.

However, the source claimed that the letter was sent in relation to the Australian Communications and Media Authority handing down breach findings against the Kyle & Jackie O show in October 2025.

'That was about ARN wanting to get on the front foot and putting together content guidelines, so there wouldn’t be anything further from ACMA,' the source said. 'It was nothing to do with Jackie.'

ARN's statement of claim also references complaints both Henderson and her manager Gemma O'Neill made to ARN management about Sandilands' alleged bullying, but there is no direct reference to these complaints being relayed to Sandilands.

The source added that Sandilands' legal team was trawling through 'hundreds of hours' of the Kyle & Jackie O show for examples of arguments between the pair that were promoted by the network.

This would bolster the suggestion in Sandilands' statement of claim that the 'banter and tension' between the duo was a 'central dynamic' to the show.

ARN's statement of claim argues that the now-infamous February 20 on-air clash that saw both Henderson and Sandilands' contracts terminated was not an isolated incident.

The company claims Sandilands' 'destruction of his relationship with Ms Henderson' was the culmination of 'a persistent course of workplace bullying and harassment of Ms Henderson of which she had complained' – conduct it says amounted to a serious breach of his contract. 

However, the source suggested that these incidents represented a failing on the part of ARN, given that Sandilands was reportedly never made aware of any alleged breaches of conduct.  

'I could not be more clear, there was never anything said to Kyle about his behaviour towards Jackie – not a single thing,' the source said
