David Sharaz has been ordered to pay $92,000 for social media posts the Western Australian supreme court found were defamatory against former defence minister Linda Reynolds.

Sharaz, a former journalist and Higgins’ now-husband, has also been found jointly responsible for another defamatory tweet to which Higgins responded, according to the court’s orders.
