Tess Crosley addresses Lachie scandal in interview after Jules Neale exposed heartbreaking details in podcast

After days of anticipation, the woman at the centre of the explosive Lachie Neale affair scandal has shared her side of the story with the public for the first time.

Tess Crosley has broken her silence in an eagerly awaited sit-down interview with the Daily Mail , offering her account of the saga that has attracted widespread attention and public scrutiny.

The full episode comes after a teaser video was shared in a joint Instagram post on Tuesday, with the words “and this is where things get interesting” appearing in text overlay as Tess walks into a studio and sits down in front of a microphone.

Speaking to Debrief podcast host Savanna Young, Tess reflected on the past year as a “chaotic” time in her life.

“I am doing well now, but the last 12 months was really, really chaotic and hard. I think that is sort of why I decided to come and speak today, because I think unless I actually verbalise it and talk about it, people don’t really know what I went through and how challenging is really was,” she said.

“I feel like I have done a lot of therapy and self work to sort of heal and I definitely made some decisions I deeply regret.”
