Jackie ‘O’ Henderson addresses the bizarre claim she was once ‘a coke wh**e’ in the mid 2000s… after her co-host Kyle Sandilands jokes the rumour began ‘because of the caved-in nose’
Radio host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has spoken out about bizarre claims she was once a ‘coke wh**e’ on Thursday’s The Kyle And Jackie O Show.
During an interview with singer Amy Shark, her cheeky co-host Kyle Sandilands, 49, joked that the rumour Jackie took the Class A drug began ‘because of the caved-in nose’.
But defiant Jackie, 45, confirmed she’s ‘never taken the drug in her whole life’ while sharing her thoughts on the shocking speculation, which has followed her for decades.

Jackie laughed: ‘He was my boyfriend, so…’
Back in April this year, Jackie claimed the rumour began in the mid 2000s, before reluctantly adding that it had followed her around ever since.
‘It’s because I got really skinny,’ she explained on her radio show, adding that it was started by a ‘few people’ in her industry who were desperate to start drama.
She then swore on her daughter Kitty’s life that she had ‘never done cocaine’, saying: ‘I’ve just never been interested. I really haven’t.’
