LISA STEALS THE SPOTLIGHT!

Her former Today co-anchor Karl is usually the one making headlines for his eyebrow-raising behaviour and bold comments, but it appears Lisa Wilkinson wants in on the action, too! Her recent remarks about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s second pregnancy caused a firestorm of backlash after The Project star joked that they should name their unborn baby Andrew! The comments seemingly referred to Harry’s uncle Prince Andrew, who has been accused of raping a minor reportedly trafficked by late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a claim he denies.

Many fans of the show felt the quip was in poor taste, given it followed a segment with Australian government staffer Brittany Higgins, who alleged she was raped by a colleague at Parliament House, with some branding her joke “disgusting”.
