“I wasn’t sure what the changes were so, of course, I was disappointed when I got the news,” she told the Sunday Independent.

“I had an inkling that something was going to happen – and wondered how it would pan out.

So obviously when I was the change that was disappointing to say the least.

“When you are told you won’t be rejoining the show it’s hard news to hear.

It’s like a break up. It’s like being told ‘it’s not you, it’s me’,” she explained.

While Lisa was dropped from the entertainment show, she is now taking over as anchor on Saturday AM and Sunday AM, while Anna Daly is on maternity leave.

Lisa said she understands this is just how the industry works.

“It’s not easy news for anyone to give. It’s tough. I wouldn’t say it was a pleasant experience for anyone [involved].

“But this happens all the time. The media is a difficult industry,” she explained.
