‘They knew about her comments years ago but still pursued her anyway just a few months ago. Now they suddenly decide to drop her, it makes no sense,’ an alleged insider told the publication.
Daily Mail Australia have contacted Mamamia and Channel Seven for comment.
This comes after The Daily Telegraph reported on Friday that Sonia has been dropped from Mamamia’s beauty podcast, You Beauty.

‘We have made the decision to take down the episode of You Beauty featuring Sonia Kruger,’ The Daily Telegraph revealed the Facebook post read.
‘We want to thank you for your feedback and pointing out that Sonia’s past views on topics including Muslim immigration were deeply hurtful to so many people.
In February last year, a tribunal found Kruger vilified Muslims when she called for Australia to close its borders to followers of Islam because she ‘didn’t feel safe’.

The NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal delivered their decision almost three years after Kruger’s explosive comments were made on the Today Show in July 2016.
The tribunal found Kruger’s ‘vilifying remarks’ had the ability to ‘encourage hatred towards, or serious contempt for, Australian Muslims by ordinary members of the Australian population’.
Australian Muslim man Sam Ekermawi filed the complaint saying Channel Nine had vilified ‘ethnic Muslim Australians’.
