Speaking exclusively to TV WEEK, Allison confesses that she was more than happy to leave Michael at home with the kids and give herself a โ€œweekend awayโ€ to relax.

โ€œTheyโ€™re [Allisonโ€™s kids] a little bit sick, hubbyโ€™s in charge and I did the whole, โ€˜Oh honey, you know, Iโ€™m sorry. I wish I was home,โ€™ but I donโ€™t mean it,โ€ Allison says.

โ€œIt has been so fun. I slept in this morning. No one woke me up in the middle of the night. Itโ€™s bliss, It feels like a holiday, except Iโ€™ve gotta wear heels. But hey, I mean, if thatโ€™s what it takes to get a weekend away.โ€

The Today host also spoke about Karl Stefanovicโ€™s nomination for the Gold Logie, attesting that โ€œheโ€™s got it in the bagโ€.

โ€œHeโ€™s on air three and a half hours every morning. So you see him all the time. So, you know, he tries to pretend heโ€™s the underdog. But I think heโ€™s actually got an advantage because heโ€™s on our screen every single morning.โ€

The devoted co-star assures us she voted for Karl about โ€œa million timesโ€, but confesses if he doesnโ€™t take home the Gold, sheโ€™d love to see Hamish Blake win the honour.

โ€œAs long as it comes back to the Nine family, weโ€™re happy,โ€ Allison says.

Speaking to TV WEEK after learning of his nomination, Karl described the accolade as โ€œvery unexpectedโ€.

โ€œHonestly, Iโ€™m lucky to have a job,โ€ Karl, 47, admitted.

โ€œItโ€™s a great privilege and honour to be in front of people every morning. I think when you go through a lot in life and you experience some of the things Iโ€™ve experienced and get removed from the show, you can learn lot from that.

โ€œYou can come back and treat it [the job] with the respect that maybe you didnโ€™t before.โ€
