Lisa Wilkinson continues holiday while Georgie starts on Today

Georgie Gardner has officially commenced her hosting gig on Today, but Lisa Wilkinson doesn't seem fazed in the slightest, as she continues her holiday in Hawaii.

The 58-year-old has been sharing snaps of her sunny getaway on social media, a week ahead of her debut on The Project.

Karl Stefanovic's former co-host shared a photo of her and new The Project colleague Peter Helliar, captioned, "Ya run into the darndest people in Hawaii... This is @pjhelliar filling me in over dinner about how he dodged the threat of an approaching ballistic missile".

Meanwhile Georgie had her face day on Today this morning, stepping into Lisa's old role alongside Karl Stefanovic.

The 47-year-old admitted in an interview with with the Daily Telegraph this week what she's most nervous about taking on the new role.


"There's a part of me that feels wary because we live in a time now where there is just so much scrutiny," she told the outlet, "We live in this very weird era of clickbait and I just hope with that I don't lose my spontaneity."

She continued, "I figure we're all at risk of saying something that we might... regret or feel 'oh gosh I wish I didn't say that.' But I hope that doesn't override the genuine side of me and my authenticity."
