Lachie and Jules Neale are packing up their family home in Queensland amid a painful marriage breakdown.

Friends were seen helping load a trailer at the inner east Brisbane home in Seven Hills on Tuesday morning.

After backing into the driveway, they loaded the trailer with tools, Gucci totes, full garbage bags and other items.

It is believed Jules, who arrived back in Brisbane on Monday after celebrating Christmas with her two children and other family in Perth, was in the garage helping with the move.

A Ben Moves Brisbane removal truck pulled up at the home in the afternoon, with workers loading dozens of boxes from the garage.

At least three other cars have driven up to the house throughout the day, taking away various items.

Jules was later spotted at the Grumpy Monkey’s Coffee Nook cafe in Norman Park, shielding her face as she grabbed an iced latte and pastry.

A worker said that Jules was “crying” inside the cafe.

Jules has removed most photos of Lachie, who she married in Perth in 2018, from her Instagram and unfollowed him.

She has also unfollowed former close friend Tess Crosley, who is at the centre of the couple’s break-up and was once a regular fixture beside Jules at club events and across social media.

Crosley has continued to post publicly in recent days, sharing images from a northern NSW getaway over Christmas with her son.

She returned to Queensland on Monday and was seen out and about in Brisbane — without her husband Ben.
