Today host Karl Stefanovic made a potentially revealing remark about 'working with divas' at Channel Nine during a radio interview on Wednesday.
He made the eyebrow-raising comment on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, just days after reuniting with his former Today co-anchor Lisa Wilkinson.
The pair had briefly chatted and posed for photos together at a Logie Awards nominations party on the Gold Coast on Sunday - marking the first time they'd met in person since Wilkinson released a tell-all book about her exit from Nine in late 2017.
Stefanovic, 47, alluded to working with 'divas' while defending current co-host Ally Langdon, 42, who was accused in a newspaper article on Sunday of 'throwing a tantrum' after being overlooked by Nine for the network's election night coverage.

'[Langdon] is the hardest-working person at Channel Nine. She comes into work with a broken leg [and] has punched out more great political interviews that anyone else at the network,' he said.
'[For her to] be fashioned into some kind of diva person for missing out on an election, I think that's absolutely disgusting.
'I've worked with divas, and...'
At this point, radio host Kyle Sandilands interrupted to say: 'Yes, I saw you ran into her during the week[end].'
