Julia has spoken.
And the former Prime Minister’s interview tonight with Ray Martin is what everyone will be talking about in the morning.
The Channel Nine interview took over three hours to film, and the former Prime Minister opened up about everything from what she misses most (and least) about the leadership role, to her views on marriage equality, to her walks with Reuben the dog.
But there were seven moments — including Julia’s confession that she cried when trust broke down between herself and Kevin Rudd and her revelations she practiced boxing in The Lodge — that really stayed with us.
Here are the key quotes you need to know about:
1. She says she cried when she realised Kevin Rudd didn’t trust her any more.
“I’d felt like I’d done everything I possibly could to help and support and prop Kevin up and there had already, in the days before, been some signs that now I was being viewed with suspicion. And I just cried because I felt it was just so unfair.”

What a waste of time and how embarrassing that Ray Martin is considered one of the most respected journalists in the country.
What ever you think of the former PM the interview was pathetic, failed to give her the opportunity to address some difficult issues and did nothing for the credibility of either of them.
