Two Crisafulli government ministers have contradicted Queensland Premier David Crisafulli’s assurances that he was unaware of their affair and said he was only referring to their current relationship and not their alleged previous one. In a press conference, Sports Minister Tim Mander and Child Safety Minister Amanda Camm revealed they had told Mr Crisafulli in May 2024 of an affair, but it ended.

Sky News contributor Joe Hildebrand commented on this. “So the question is why did they not declare in the ministerial code of interests under the Ministerial Code of Conduct … that they are in a relationship with each other, which you are supposed to do,” Mr Hildebrand said. “For the bit that they were actually meant to declare it and didn’t, conveniently, that is the bit that they were on a break. “So now Crisafulli is put in this ridiculous position where he’s had to say, ‘Oh yes, I knew about the first affair, but I didn’t know about the second affair’.”
