Labour leader Chris Hipkins has rejected claims made on social media by his ex-wife Jade.
The post was in response to a Labour advertisement promoting its focus on health, homes and jobs.
Asked for a response to the post, Hipkins' office gave a short statement.
"I reject the allegations entirely and don't intend to make any further comment."
Hipkins and his ex-wife separated in 2022. The couple have two children together.

It is understood Hipkins is seeking legal advice on the post.
The Labour leader went public with his new relationship with ex-staffer Toni Grace during his election night concession speech in October 2023, and the pair announced their engagement in November last year.
