2GB host Ben Fordham crashes Ray Hadley’s honeymoon

Ray Hadley was enjoying a romantic getaway with his new wife when Ben Fordham crashed his honeymoon with the help of Nova funnyman Wippa.

2GB host Ben Fordham crashed broadcaster Ray Hadley’s honeymoon with the help of radio funnyman Michael “Wippa” Wipfli.

Hadley was enjoying a romantic getaway with his new wife Sophie Baird at Hayman Island in Queensland this week and when Fordham discovered that Wippa was also on holiday at the same resort, he wasted no time asking the Nova radio host to interrupt the special occasion.

“Ray deserves a peaceful honeymoon with Sophie but I couldn’t miss the opportunity to stir him up when I discovered Wippa would be staying at the same resort,” Fordham told The Daily Telegraph.

“Ray has been known to describe Wippa as a ‘pest’, even though deep down, I know he likes him.

“I’ve asked Wippa to check in with Ray daily on the honeymoon and recommend they undertake activities together such as fishing and snorkelling and even yoga. Ray is now doing his best to avoid Wippa at the breakfast buffet.”

Wippa surprised Hadley in the breakfast area at their exclusive resort and the veteran broadcaster looked unimpressed.

“Ray is back on air with me from Monday and no doubt I’ll be hearing all about his new best mate Wippa,” Fordham joked.

“How good is it taking a mate along on your honeymoon? Ray and Sophie are so lucky to have Wippa sharing this special week with them. When Ray needs sunscreen rubbed in, I wonder if he turns to Sophie or Wippa?”

Hayman Island has become an increasingly popular holiday destination

Hadley is no stranger to Wippa’s pranks after being the target of several hidden camera stunts over the years.

Wippa has been on holidays in Queensland with his wife Lisa and their three children.

The Wipflis were also seen catching up with their good friends Hamish Blake and Zoe Foster-Blake, who are also enjoying some time away with their two children.

Hadley and Baird tied the knot at their good friend John Singleton’s restaurant Saddles in Mount White last month, two years after their engagement.
