‘She would not let me go to the house’: Dannii Minogue claims Lady Sonia McMahon made her wait in the car while then-husband Julian visited his family… and attempted to disrupt their wedding day by ‘causing a scene’

Dannii Minogue has claimed that her former mother-in-law forbid her from entering the family home, according to a new report.  

The Daily Telegraph quotes the 47-year-old speaking during a yet to be shown episode of Anh’s Brush With Fame, due to air on the ABC on Wednesday. 

The former singer claimed that Lady Sonia McMahon, mother of her ex-husband, actor Julian McMahon, did not approve of her.

Dannii claimed:  ‘His family did not like me. There’s a certain social pecking order and I was definitely not in that scene. [Sonia] only spoke to me a couple of times. She would not let me go to the family house.’ 

She added that when Julian went to the house, she was left, ‘waiting in the car out the front. It was as if I’d done something wrong to the family’. 

The actress went on to claim that Sonia attempted to disrupt the pair’s wedding by threatening not to attend.

Calling the situation ‘stressful’ Dannii added: ‘She did end up coming and was causing a scene’. 

Lady Sonia, who died in 2010, was the wife of Sir William McMahon, Prime Minister of Australia, and well-known as a socialite.  

Former pop star Dannii met her now ex-husband Julian on the set of Australian TV drama Home and Away. 

Dannii starred as tomboy punk Emma Jackson from September 1989 until August 1990.

The high-profile couple began a romance and were married in 1994, before splitting less than two years later.   

Her last significant relationship was with Kris Smith, whom she was paired with from 2008 to 2012.
