Sex discrimination is how Christie_Whelan got away with her backstage behaviour. Any bloke who behaves like her gets his life destroyed. Australia’s amberheard. ChristieWhelanBrowne

If she was as traumatised as she claims, why did she re-audition for a role in the same show in 2015, 2017, and 2023 (all unsuccessfully)? This move against the producers is all sour grapes, and to get money out of them.

More lies where do these so called actresses get off she’s a nobody now wants to get into the spotlight just another weak gutless human who should have complained a long time ago SHAME ON HER

Maybe she just too old to play these parts.

The girl who cried wolf...

Well if she didn't like it from day one, she could have resigned and given her reasons why.

Apparently one needs to be an actress to get WorkCover in this country, while social workers working with perpetrators, child abuse and complex trauma don't get that lucky!

2015 & 2017: christie_whelan is rejected for a role in RHS and goes after the star - the same man she was dying to work with again. 2023: Gets rejected for RHS again and goes after GFO - the same company she was desperate to work for again. Pathetic ChristieWhelanBrowne

chirstie_whelan will do anything for attention. She was rejected for a role for the 2023 production of RHS, so now she’s playing the victim & going after GFO. This aging D-list actress needs to learn that rejection is part of the biz & stop acting like a petulant child.

Hmm, didn't get a part in RH again so this is her modis operandi. She should be careful, some of her secrets may come to light. I don’t believe she has as many supporters as she used to.

Oh

You reap what you sow . .
