Langdon was criticized in February 2009 for her coverage in Marysville, Victoria, which was by then destroyed by the Black Saturday bushfires, that had killed 34 people.
Despite a police restriction on accessing the town, Langdon and her filming team flew into the site even though it was blocked off as a scene of crime.

Allison Langdon First Husband
Langdon wasn’t really married before settling with her current husband. Instead, she and her crush were both eyeing each other, but they didn’t last in their relationship.
She said that he went too far by writing her sexually graphic love letters, which is why she decided to file a trespassing accusation against him. The man appeared in court on June 22, 2007, entered a not guilty plea, and was ordered not to approach Langdon or Channel Nine’s studios within 500 meters.
