The woman embroiled in the Lachie and Jules Neale marriage drama posted cheerful Christmas and Boxing Day photos on Instagram, but one person was noticeably absent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite keeping her account public, Tess Crosley remained silent as her name made headlines last week when it emerged she was the close friend Jules had fallen out with after the AFL WAG revealed an \u201cunimaginable\u201d betrayal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, on Thursday Crosley broke her silence with a carousel of happy snaps with the caption \u201cMerry Christmas x\u201d, appearing unfazed by the suspected collapse of her former friend\u2019s marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crosley posted nine photos and one video of herself and her loved ones, including her young son, celebrating the festive season \u2014 but there were no signs of her husband Ben, who she has been with for at least 10 years, or a wedding ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, Crosley posted another carousel of pictures and videos, alongside the caption \u201cThis \ud83e\udef6\ud83c\udffb\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carousel featured three photos of herself in a bikini, with other photos showing her young son and family members enjoying a sprawling property believed to be in Byron Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photos come after Jules left a scathing, now-deleted comment under a picture Crosley published of the former friends celebrating the Brisbane Lions\u2019 grand final win last year with Lachie and Ben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the comment, Jules wrote: \u201cTake these (pictures) down\u2026\u201d before removing it amid the public fallout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just one day before that screenshot surfaced, Jules took to social media to deny reports that she and Lachie were \u201cworking through\u201d their issues, instead suggesting what has transpired in her marriage is irreconcilable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Perth-born hairstylist \u2014 who has been married to AFL<\/a> star Lachie Neale since 2018 \u2014 said \u201cI want to make it very clear that I am not \u2018working through\u2019 anything\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have been betrayed in the most unimaginable way,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll I can do now is to heal and do what\u2019s best for my children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThank you for all the love and support. Jules x.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
