She’s been making her thoughts known – to say the least! – about everyone from Donald Trump to Duchess Meghan and even Sydneysiders who “kind of forgot” about the coronavirus pandemic.

Now, insiders at Ten have revealed the truth behind 61-year-old Lisa Wilkinson’s recent shock outbursts.

“The word is Lisa 
is being guided by management to be
 a whole lot more direct 
in her narrative,” a network insider tells Woman’s Day.

“Ten 
is paying her the 
big bucks, and they 
can’t justify paying her 
to sit on the fence and occasionally have an opinion.”

“All of a sudden she’s everywhere – the only way she has any currency at the network is to become their best chance at clickbait, and she is pulling out all stops. She’s become a little pocket rocket with a whole new spring in her step!”

“Lisa’s loving finding her voice – alongside Karl on Today she was always the measured and calm one,” the source adds.

“Now, Lisa is more of 
a hardcore ballbreaker, 
and she’s hoping that 
her newfound ‘rebel’ 
is working a treat for her bosses.”
