It appears as though Bauer Media is set to appeal the landmark decision made in Rebel Wilson's defamation case.

Wilson was awarded $4.56 million in damages over a series of defamatory articles in Woman's Day magazine.

The articles in question labelled rebel Wilson as a serial liar, with the 37-year-old taking issue with these claims.

The payout was the biggest defamation win in Australian legal history.

"It's important for us to revisit this unprecedented decision on the quantum of damages, which also has broad implications for the media industry," Bauer Media's general counsel Adrain Goss said, according to SMH.
