Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, 50, and his ex-staff member and new partner Vikki Campion, 33, are expecting a baby just two months after he separated from his wife of more than two decades.
And KIIS FM host Kyle Sandilands, who has been involved in a long-standing feud with the Joyce, didn’t hold back when discussing Barnaby’s ‘baby joy’.
‘I’m surprised this beautiful woman decided, “I’m going to let Barnaby-dogs have sex with me”,’ Kyle said live on air.

‘Oh, he rooted his own staff? What does she see in the beetroot? I don’t get it!’ Kyle questioned, as news reader Brooklyn Ross reported on the breaking news.
Kyle commented on the ex Daily Telegraph journalist’s appearance: ‘She’s a nice looking woman and she’s fallen in love with the beetroot. Who would have thought?’

Family life: While Mr Joyce has previously announced his separation from wife of 24-years, Natalie (who he shares four daughters with, aged in their late teens and early 20s now), he is yet to make a public statement about the rumoured pregnancy
While Mr Joyce has previously announced his separation from wife of 24-years, Natalie, he is yet to make a public statement about the reported pregnancy.
Mr Joyce and Natalie have four daughters, aged in their late teens and early 20s, from their 24-year marriage.
News reader Brooklyn informed Kyle that Barnaby’s lady love is 17 years his junior, to which Kyle responded: ‘Sweet! Good work, Barnaby.’
‘Barnaby and I don’t get on, but I tip my hat to you, my friend,’ the media personality, who also has a girlfriend 20 his junior, said.
‘It’s not all about looks, guys,’ co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson interrupted.

Kyle’s feud with Joyce began after the Deputy Prime Minister making an official complaint to the media watchdog in 2015 after the radio host verbally abused him during an on-air stoush.
The heated segment in May, 2015, on KIIS FM radio related to actor Johnny Depp’s dogs Pistol and Boo being smuggled into Australia.
Kyle called the then Agriculture Minister a ‘wan***’, ‘loser, ‘absolute joke’, and a ‘gerbil of a thing’, before Barnaby hung up abruptly.

Barnaby gave the former glamour couple Johnny Depp and Amber Heard 50 hours to get the dogs out of the country or face them being put down, citing quarantine rules designed to protect Australia from animal-borne diseases, to which Kyle said he made Australians look like ‘hillbilly redneck losers’ and was an ‘absolute joke’
Barnaby gave the former glamour couple Johnny Depp and Amber Heard 50 hours to get the dogs out of the country or face them being put down, citing quarantine rules designed to protect Australia from animal-borne diseases.
Kyle, no stranger to controversy, was riled up before the interview with Mr Joyce saying the minister’s comments about the two dogs made Australians look like ‘hillbilly redneck losers.’
But Sandilands’ comments, while disrespectful, were part of a robust exchange of views between the pair and did not breach the industry code according to the media watchdog.
Barnaby disputed the ruling, complaining and insisting Kyle should be properly reprimanded for the incident.

Meanwhile, a friend of the Deputy Prime Minister said the alleged pregnancy was shrouded in secrecy because he was concerned about the well-being of his daughters.
Ms Campion worked as Mr Joyce’s media advisor before she moved into a more senior role with Resources Minister Matt Canavan in April last year.
Mr Joyce, who was born in Tamworth, acknowledged he was separated and said he was ‘not a saint’ in a parliamentary admission last year.
KIIS FM co-host Jackie added: ‘Wait a minute! Why does Karl Stefanovic leave his wife, not having had an affair, and become the “most hated man of the time” and then Barnaby Joyce, nothing said? I didn’t even know Baranaby Joyce had left his wife.’
‘Because no one cares about Barnaby Joyce!’ Kyle ended the chat.
