She split from her husband Karl Stefanovic in September last year.
But as Cassandra Thorburn returned to public life following months of uncertainty, Today co-host Lisa Wilkinson reportedly snubbed her at an awards ceremony.
According to Fairfax Media on Sunday, an attendee at The Australian Women’s Weekly Women Of The Future Awards said that despite Lisa being an emcee at the event, she didn’t so much as even acknowledge her Today co-host’s ex-wife.

‘Everyone was watching to see what Lisa would do, but she completely ignored Cassandra,’ the insider told the publication.
The source added: ‘It felt a bit awkward.’
At the event held on Wednesday Cassandra walked the red carpet in a chic pink dress, looking happy and relaxed.
Her attendance at the event has reportedly been part of a celebration, after finalising her divorce from her ex-husband and raising a toast in support of women in media.

It’s unclear whether Lisa purposefully ignored Karl’s former wife, however the pair have known each other a long time.
Lisa has had close to a decade of contact with the former journalist, as Karl’s co-host on the long-running Channel Nine morning program since 2007.

After the high-profile separation from Cassandra, the 57-year-old blasted Australian tabloids for their treatment of Karl, claiming the reports were ‘a lot of lies.’
Cassandra and Karl married in 1995 but shockingly separated last year, before the high-profile TV personality began dating designer Jasmine Yarbrough.
The pair have three children together, Jackson, 18, Ava, 12, and River, 10.
