This weekend, the Murdoch press spotted Greig — who has been keeping a low profile — as she sipped champagne with a girlfriend over the weekend.

According to The Australian, Greig "appeared in good spirits, dressed in a yellow jacket as she caught up with a friend at Three Weeds pub in Rozelle."

Fairfax quoted her as saying:

"Someone from the station will be in contact with News Limited when I return. "I'm not supposed to say anything. I'm so sorry."
