Kyle Sandilands settles with ARN
Kyle Sandilands has signed on the dotted line, settling with his former employer, ARN, for a wild amount.
Kyle Sandilands has settled with his former employer ARN, bringing an abrupt end to the legal dispute over the termination of the shock jock’s $100 million contract.
It is understood that Kyle has settled with the broadcaster for a cool $15 million to be paid out over three years.
The legal agreement was signed in Kyle’s Vaucluse mansion around 6pm today, after his 10-year, $100 million deal was torn up in March.
News.com.au understands the agreement was struck the day before Kyle was actually due to submit his evidence.
This is not shocking news to anyone in Kyle’s inner circle, as the shock jock has made it clear he will do whatever it takes to get back behind the microphone after being thrown off the air in March.
ARN’s legal team won’t be able to celebrate with a holiday or even just a sleep-in because it is also understood that Jackie O Henderson is still moving forward with her case against the broadcaster.
ARN terminated Kyle’s lucrative 10-year, $100 million deal after an on-air spat with his co-host, Jackie O Henderson, on February 20th, that ended in tears.
their on-air argument Jackie took personal leave, and she was later terminated after allegedly claiming she could no longer work with Kyle.
Kyle was initially just suspended for 14 days and then later terminated for “serious misconduct”.
Both were contesting their respective terminations, but Kyle’s matter is now settled.
