The veteran star has nabbed an exciting new TV job
Three months on from her shock departure from Studio 10, Ita Buttrose is having the last laugh.
The media maven has landed a high-profile new television gig, putting the personality clashes with former co-stars – including Denise Drysdale, who launched a brussels sprout at Ita’s head during a cooking segment after several glasses of champagne – well and truly behind her.
Ita’s now starring alongside David Campbell on Nine’s significantly higher-rating morning show Today Extra – and she couldn’t be happier.
“Sonia Kruger is in Canada on assignment and Ita was more than happy to step into her shoes,” reveals an industry insider. “At the moment, it’s not a permanent gig, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t use her as a regular fill-in if this goes well, or keep her on for regular segments.”
