"They're all gone!" the glamorous barrister said on Tuesday's Kyle and Jackie O radio show. "Yeah, they're all gone."
When asked if she knew the reason why the three ladies did not return for Season 4, Gina responded: "Why? I suppose for various reasons."
"Chyka left. She had a lot of work to do. She'd sort of just done enough. She's a guest (however on the upcoming season). She does come in as a friend on the show," said Gina.
"Pettifleur I think...she said she resigned. I'm not exactly sure the logistics of it all are." As for Susie, Gina added: "And Susie I think was the same thing. But I'm not sure the reasons why."
Chyka, Pettifleur and Susie were eventually replaced by newcomers Venus Behbahani-Clark and Sally Bloomfield, who will make their debut when the show returns for Season 4 on Wednesday, December 6 at 8:30pm on Arena.
Gina stated that in order for the show to be captivating, new cast members are essential. "We need to change it up. You need to bring new girls in it for it to stay entertaining."

I have loved your constant online friendship and support, I can only hope we stay connected."
