Nobody is exempt from coronavirus restrictions – not even the New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern when she was turned away from a Wellington cafe, because it had already reached its limit of customers under social distancing rules.

Jacinda Ardern's partner Clarke Gayford says he takes responsibility for this, as he didn't get organised and book anywhere.

The Cafe owner confirmed Ardern was initially turned away by the restaurant manager, but a few minutes later she was allowed in when a table became free and this was something the owner said they did for other customers as well.

He says it was nice, after all the drama and stress of the past two months to be talking about something light-hearted and fun.
