Ms Reynolds said she was “devastated” when the sexual assault allegations were aired on national television, and that it was made out like she was covering up the alleged incident.“Although none of it, this is the irony of it, none of it was absolutely true. The recordings Ms Reynolds mentioned refer to lengthy audio clips between Ms Wilkinson, her producer Angus Llewellyn, Ms Higgins, and her partner David Sharaz.
