"If you can forgive me for the stupidity and the other things I have done then I am very grateful, but I think that's their decision not mine.
The claims against Burke were published today following a joint ABC-Fairfax Media investigation, which included claims from more than 50 women who worked with or under the gardening guru. In a statement, Burke denied the allegations and suggested they had been made by disgruntled former employees."Accordingly, there would be a small number of these ex-employees who still bear a strong grudge against me," the statement said.
"The allegations are extremely serious; the behaviour described is completely unacceptable and would not be tolerated at Nine today," the network said in a statement.
