Australian TV networks Channel Nine and Channel Seven enjoy a healthy rivalry, and that competition extends to their on-screen entertainers.
But it seems hosts Ben Fordham and Grant Denyer have put this feud to bed – with a kiss!
WATCH the sensational moment Karl and Grant lock lips on air:
In a scene Grant described as something “straight out of the Notebook”, the stars shared a “pash” live on air during 2DayFM’s breakfast show.
Grant took to social media to share a video of the moment, writing:
“Whaaaaat?? 😳 TV hosts gone wild!! Building bridges & ending Network rivalries with a party pash. I have no how idea why or how this happened but it did.
“I appreciate Ch 9’s @benfordham9 ‘s soft lips… but grabbing the back of my head felt like a scene straight out of ‘The Notebook’. #stilldontknowwhy#liveradio #hestartedit@2dayfmbreakfast“
Fans couldn’t get enough of the funny clip, with one woman writing: “I’m not sure which one I’m more jealous of!”
Another joked: “Looks like true love to me.”
But one viewer who wasn’t entirely sold on the stunt was Grant’s wife Chezzi, who branded it “the most bizarre and random” thing she has ever seen.
“This was one of the most bizarre and random things I’ve ever witnessed my husband do.
“And knowing both he and @benfordham9 like I do, I’m still laughing in shock!!
“You can see my head bouncing up and down over Ed’s left shoulder as I’m yelling to the @2dayfmbreakfast team, “this is great radio. Just great”! 😂”
