Former NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said she has "no recollection" of an alleged private text message exchange about Prime Minister Scott Morrison, aired by a journalist during a question and answer session with Mr Morrison.

Journalist Peter Van Onselen told Mr Morrison during the Press Club lunch he was in possession of private text messages sent between former Nsw Premier Gladys Berejiklian and an unnamed current Liberal cabinet minister. It is unclear if the unnamed minister works at state or federal level.

"In one (Ms Berejiklian) describes you as, 'a horrible, horrible person,'" Van Onselen alleged. He also alleged the cabinet minister described Mr Morrison as a 'fraud' and 'a complete psycho'.

Mr Morrison appeared to be taken aback by the question and responded: "I don't know who you're referring to. Or the basis of what you've put to me. But I obviously don't agree with it. And I don't think that that is my record."

Ms Berejiklian later issued a statement in response to the alleged text messages.

"I understand there has been some commentary today concerning myself and the PM," she said.

"I have no recollection of such messages.

"Let me reiterate my very strong support for Prime Minister Morrison and all he is doing for our nation during these very challenging times.

"I also strongly believe he is the best person to lead our nation for years to come."

Mr Morrison has publicly been a vocal supporter of the former premier, touting her as a potential candidate in the federal electorate of Warringah.

The former premier resigned last year after it was revealed she was to be the subject of an inquiry by the state corruption watchdog around if she engaged in conduct that involved a breach of public trust. Ms Berejiklian has denied any wrongdoing.
