In a video posted on Instagram, Wippa walks up to the talkback host at the buffet.
‘Oh, good day Ray. How are you, mate? [I’m] here on behalf of the Ben Fordham program,’ Wippa said.
‘He’s got me on assignment here to make sure the honeymoon is going okay… sorry Soph to interrupt. How is it going?’

Ray, 66, smirked but had a hilarious reply to Wippa.
‘It was going really f**king good until you turned up,’ he said dryly.
Wippa then teased Ray further, saying they should go and enjoy some island activities together.
‘What’s the plan for today mate, should we go scuba diving, snorkeling or fishing?’ he quipped.
Ray stumped any plans and dryly replied, ‘no.’
The plan to crash the honeymoon was arranged by radio star and journalist Ben Fordham.

Ben told The Daily Telegraph that he couldn’t resist ‘stirring Ray up’ with the help of Wippa.
‘Ray has been known to describe Wippa as a ”pest”, even though deep down, I know he likes him,’ Ben said.
He jokingly added: ‘Ray and Sophie are so lucky to have Wippa sharing this special week with them. When Ray needs sunscreen rubbed in, I wonder if he turns to Sophie or Wippa?’
Wippa and his Nova radio co-star Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald have long pranked Ray.

Remember that? They also once surprised the shock jock with a billboard in Sydney’s Ryde, where the broadcaster was pictured hilariously endorsing their show
In February last year, they pranked him with the help of Human Nature.
Fitzy called up to Ray’s show and said he had a surprise for him, a special rendition of Ginuwine’s hit single, Pony, performed by the boy band. Ray eventually got involved and began dancing to the tune.

‘Feel the power of Fitzy & Wippa,’was written across it, as Ray waved at the comedy duo.
Ray meanwhile, married Sophie Baird last month in an intimate ceremony at Saddles, a gourmet restaurant in Mount White in NSW.
Among the 118 guests were Ray’s first wife Anne Marie and his three children Daniel, Laura and Sarah as well as Sophie’s children Nick and Jessie, from her first marriage.
