News of the litigation comes months after the network was ordered to pay a former MKR contestant compensation following her appearance on the show back in 2019.
The network was told to pay Piper O’Neill more than $22,000 a year in ongoing payments after she claimed she suffered ‘psychological injury’ on the show,
Piper, 37, appeared on the cooking series alongside her best friend Veronica Cristovao, with the two women labelled the show’s resident ‘beauty queens’.

She first lodged a workers compensation claim against Seven in August last year, asking for a payment of almost $1,000 in weekly benefits.
Piper had initially asked that the payments be dated from December 24, 2018.
During her stint on the show, it was revealed that Piper was involved in a ‘secret’ relationship with fellow contestant Victor Aeberli.
Speaking to news.com.au at the time, Veronica said her friend had been treated unfairly by the show’s ‘sex scandal’ edit.

She also alleged her actions and words were ‘distorted’ through editing.
Seven disputed many of her claims, including whether she was considered an employee at the network, had sustained injury and become incapacitated.
