While Lachie remains contracted to the Brisbane Lions and has publicly stated his focus is on the 2026 AFL season, Jules appears firmly grounded back home.

The woman at the centre of the scandal took to Instagram earlier this week to share a cryptic Instagram message to followers

Tess Crosley has kept quiet on social media since it came to light in December that the Brisbane Lions player allegedly had an affair with his wife’s best friend.

Crosley took to Instagram to share a photo of her on a boat with the caption “There is always another story, there is more than meets the eye”.

It’s her first post in three weeks and comments from her more than 37,000 followers have been disabled.

It comes after the 30-year-old was spotted back at her home in Brisbane on Tuesday after her husband Ben told media last month she had moved out.
