Lisa Wilkinson breaks her silence

Across more than four decades as a journalist and television presenter, Lisa Wilkinson has told plenty of compelling stories. But in the past five years, she has spent more time making headlines than reading them. Now, Lisa sits down for her first interview in more than four years to unpack the personal toll of the legal battles that have consumed her life since June 2022, and discuss the unlikely project she threw herself into during that tumultuous time: a new book she has written about a woman named Evelyn Marsden, the only Australian-born survivor of the Titanic disaster. In this episode of the Stellar podcast, Lisa opens up about how digging into Evelyn's life story helped her put the adversities she was facing into perspective. She also answers the question: would she have done anything differently in the five years since her headline-making interview with Brittany Higgins went to air on The Project? Plus: Lisa sets the record straight about her departure from that show in November 2022. Lisa's new book, The Titanic Story Of Evelyn , is on sale from Tuesday, April 14.
