B105’s Abby Coleman has detailed how she told her child’s childcare centre before school that her and her husband Scotty called it quits.

But not is all that it seems with the radio host saying she merely pulled the stunt to ensure that her kids Finlay, Jaggar and Koa would snag a spot at the centre.

“We have to do our forms for outside of school care, Osh, and its really popular place at my kids school,” Coleman said.

“The kids love it and you got to get in really quickly cause otherwise, if you are working, like we rely on it so much and you have to get in the forms really really quickly and when I was doing that I remembered that I don't have Scotty’s CRN number which you have to put down.

“So to send it in really quickly. I just have to leave him off the forms, that’s just easier, I can get my spot and after that I can update the forms.

“So I sent them in and I got the spot and a little while later they send me an email saying ‘Hi Abby, we’re just wondering, you don't have Scott as an emergency contact even, would like us to fill in the right details for that. And I was like, ‘I still don't have them’ so I wrote back um ‘Sorry, Scott and I broke up’.”

She recalled the incident during the Stav, Abby and Matt show telling her fellow radio hosts: “I’m going to tell you a story and you have to guess what Scotty’s reaction would have been,” she said.

Both Matt and Stav said that his reaction was: “Oh babe, why did you tell them that, all of them are going to want to sleep with me now”.

On Thursday, B105 who is usually a heavyweight in Brisbane’s radio league, came in third after being ousted by Triple M for second spot behind Nova in the latest radio ratings.
