I don't think any Australians pronounce it like "ant".

The correct Australian way to say ‘Aunt’ is how you would refer to Aunty Jack.

Although I am sure that a lot of the right-wing neo-regressive nut jobs that have popped up in Australia over the last few years would love to refer to her as “anti-Jack” because of the transgender nature of the show.
