Former radio executive discusses Kyle Sandilands breaking his silence© Nine

Jackie “O” Henderson is reportedly considering legal action against her employer ARN Media following her shock exit from the Kyle & Jackie O Show.

The long-time radio star, 51, is considering exploring a wrongful termination lawsuit in the wake of ARN’s statement to the ASX, which suggested she had walked away from her contract at KIIS FM, the Australian Financial Review reports.

Sources told the outlet that Henderson alleges ARN wrongfully terminated her contract and that she was not offered another show.

Nine.com.au has contacted ARN Media and Henderson’s management for comment.

Last week, Henderson released a statement insisting she did not quit or resign from the Kyle and Jackie O Show following her on-air row with co-host Kyle Sandilands.

“Over the past few days, there has been a lot of speculation and misinformation about my departure from the show,” Henderson said in the statement, released by manager Gemma O’Neill.

“I want to make one important point very clear: I did not quit or resign.

“I am deeply saddened by the events of the past week and the possibility of the show ending. This has come as a shock to me, as it has to everyone else,” she said.

In addition to Henderson’s departure, ARN also announced that Sandilands could be out of the job if he does not prove within 14 days that he did not breach his contract for an alleged “act of serious misconduct” on that fateful show.

Sandilands denied breaching his contract in a statement released earlier this week.

Henderson and Sandilands were little more than a year into their fresh contracts with ARN, reported to be worth $100 million each over 10 years.
