Today presenter Allison Langdon has seemingly taken a thinly veiled swipe at her predecessor Lisa Wilkinson, who hosted the Nine breakfast show from 2007 to 2017.
Langdon, 42, told The Australian Women's Weekly she'll always trust her co-anchor Karl Stefanovic, in an apparent response to Wilkinson saying he'd thrown her under the bus during contract negotiations in 2015.
'Karl's got my back and I know he'll never let me fail. I've never trusted anyone I've worked with as much as him,' she said.

'Karl and I are mates. We feud like brother and sister, but it's authentic. We can't fake our relationship – the audience would see through it – so it plays out naturally.'
She added: 'We keep it real and if someone needs a slap down, it's done with love.'
It comes after Wilkinson, 61, alleged in her autobiography, It Wasn't Meant to Be Like This, that Stefanovic had abandoned her during salary negotiations in 2015, leading to an 'off the charts' gender pay gap.
