Jeffreys noted that Wilkins was confused by the show’s start time. “Well, there was a bit of confusion apparently on his part about his start time. He thought he didn’t have to be here until 6.30,” she said.

“Sounds a bit made up to me,” the newlywed added. 

Thirty minutes later and Wilkins still hadn’t made it to the set at Melbourne’s Crown Casino.

“He’s got to show up at some point,” Stefanovic noted.
