Over the weekend, Lisa shared a post on social media slamming the reports.

The Channel Ten host posted a photo of herself smiling on her recent European holiday.

"Well the holiday is now officially over...it seems in more ways than one," Lisa - who recently travelled through Italy with her husband, Peter Fitzsimons, began.

"So there I was, standing in the queue at the supermarket this morning, right next to the magazine rack, when I saw it: 'Furious Lisa Flees Channel 10' right there on the cover of one of the weekly 'women’s' mags. (And let’s ignore for a moment the fact that the pic accompanying this headline was of a particularly tender moment from my 10th anniversary at the Today Show at Channel Nine)," the 59-year-old continued.

Lisa then went on to dispell rumours that she was at odds with her cohosts Carrie Bickmore, Waleed Aly and Peter Helliar.

"But honestly, does ANYONE believe this stuff??? The pic above is one Pete took of me on holidays just a week ago. Do I look like someone “fleeing” anything? Do I look furious?"

Well the holiday is now officially over...it seems in more ways than one. So there I was, standing in the queue at the supermarket this morning, right next to the magazine rack, when I saw it: "Furious Lisa Flees Channel 10" right there on the cover of one of the weekly "women's" mags. (And let's ignore for a moment the fact that the pic accompanying this headline was of a particularly tender moment from my 10th anniversary at the Today Show at Channel Nine.) But honestly, does ANYONE believe this stuff??? The pic above is one Pete took of me on holidays just a week ago. Do I look like someone "fleeing" anything? Do I look furious? Do I look like I feel like "an unwanted stepchild" as this story so ridiculously described me (with apologies to all the beautiful stepchildren out there)? Honestly the number of absolute lies in this story takes my breath away. I won't bore you by going through them all....and I promise you, I'm old enough and been in this business long enough to take the hits... But I figure if I don't call out this BS right now, this story will go on and on under a bunch of different headings for months to come. So please, don't believe any of it. Tonight, after a holiday booked six months ago, I am back at the job, the network and with the Sunday @theprojecttv team that I love. 6.30pm on @channel10au Hope to see you then! Lisa.xxx

"Honestly, the number of absolute lies in this story takes my breath away...So please, don’t believe any of it."

The TV host - who joined The Project in 2017 after leaving the Channel Nine morning show - also confirmed that she would be returning to the Sunday Project episode.

"Tonight, after a holiday booked six months ago, I am back at the job, the network and with the Sunday @theprojecttv team that I love."

Last week, an Australian publication reported that Lisa has fled the set of The Project's 10th-anniversary special after feeling slighted.

Apparently, the Network Ten editor-at-large felt "mortified" and like an "unwanted" stepchild" during the episode.

When Peter Helliar made the throwaway comment, "We love having you on our show," Lisa reportedly reached her boiling point.

"Lisa is highly sensitive regarding her public profile," an insider said, stating that Lisa was furious with the Gold-Logie nominee's swipe.

"While she tries to keep relationships civil off-camera, she is furious that her co-hosts are allowing nasty barbs to continue on-air."

According to the Australian Media Diary, Lisa quietly "shuffled off set" after just 30 minutes and didn't attend the afterparty with the other Project panellists.

But, the Australian TV host digresses:

"Do I look like I feel like 'an unwanted stepchild' as this story so ridiculously described me (with apologies to all the beautiful stepchildren out there)?"

The Project airs 6:30pm Sunday to Friday on TEN
