Jackie O Complained About Kyle Sandiland Months Before on-Air Fight, Court Documents Allege
She says ARN retaliated after repeated complaints about Kyle Sandilands and seeks at least $82.25 million in unpaid fees and damages.
- Radio personality Jackie Henderson filed a Federal Court lawsuit last week seeking at least $82,250,000 in compensation from ARN, alleging the network unfairly terminated her contract following complaints about co-host Kyle Sandilands.
- Court documents reveal Henderson complained to ARN executives for months regarding Sandilands' behavior, including an August 2025 broadcast where he made "offensive and degrading" remarks about her personal life.
- Following her complaints, ARN terminated Henderson's contract on March 3, claiming she refused to work with Sandilands; her lawyers dispute the network's ASX statement that it offered an alternate show, arguing retaliation.
- Sandilands filed separate Federal Court proceedings last month seeking $85 million after his contract was terminated for alleged "serious misconduct," and together the duo demands more than $170 million in payouts.
- ARN's share price dropped to $0.24, down from above $1 when the pair signed their 10-year, $200 million contract in 2023, while the parties face a first case management hearing on April 24.
