A well-known television personality seems to be siding with Tess Crosley following the news that she was involved in the split between Jules and Lachie Neale’s marriage.
Recently, Jules, age 35, has been in the news after accusing her previous close friend of being involved in the events that led to the end of her relationship with the Australian rules football player.
I’ve been following Tony Armstrong for a while now, and it’s a bit awkward to see this. He was really being promoted as the ‘face’ of the ABC, but it’s come out that he’s been liking photos posted by Tess, who’s currently dealing with a lot of negative press. It just feels a little strange given everything that’s going on.
The 36-year-old former breakfast show host, who is now dating Rona Glynn-McDonald, still appears to be close to Tess, 30, even though she’s faced some bad publicity lately.
Since rumors started about Lachie, 32, and Jules separating in December, the retired football player has liked nearly all of the brunette’s photos on social media.
After the Daily Mail contacted Tony for a response, he quickly removed his ‘likes’ from Tess’s photos. However, he is still following her on social media as of today.


Someone liked a post in December, shortly before news started circulating that Lachie and Jules were having relationship problems.
Tess was sharing photos of her everyday life, including some selfies and pictures of her son with her husband, Ben.
She posted again around Christmas time, following a series of shocking statements Jules made on Instagram about being deeply hurt and betrayed.
By that point, everyone knew Lachie and Jules were separating, and Jules even suggested Tess played a role in their split.
Jules asked Tess to take down photos from her Instagram showing the Neales and Crosleys together after the Lions’ grand final win. The original comment has since been deleted.
Okay, so picture this: Lachie just won, and he was totally basking in the glow of victory with Tess right there beside him. They were really close – knees touching, the whole nine yards! It was a sweet moment, and you could tell they were both thrilled. Ben and Jules were over there sharing in the celebration too, completing the happy group.
‘Take these down, you idiot, you’re embarrassing yourself,’ Jules wrote.
Even after the comments and photo became public, Tess continued to post online as if nothing had happened.


She wished her followers happy holidays on Christmas Day, and the next day, she shared a revealing bikini photo. Tony liked both of her posts.
Tess recently posted on Monday, while people were heavily speculating about her relationship with Lachie. The post was a cheerful one, celebrating her 30th birthday.
While her husband was in Bali with friends, the Mormon missionary visited Penfolds Magill Estate Winery in South Australia and had a glass of wine.
Tess shared a photo from her outing online, and looked happy and radiant as she gazed off to the side with a smile.
She celebrated turning 30 over the weekend, sharing a photo of herself with dessert and a glass of wine.
Tess reposted the image to her Instagram Stories and included a meaningful song by Lana Del Rey.
The song snippet Tess shared, from the track “Cinnamon Girl,” includes the lines: “Hold me, love me, touch me, honey. Be the first to ever do that.”
Even with rumors spreading about her role in Lachie and Jules’ divorce, Tony still liked Tess’ birthday message.


This follows the recent release of surprising information regarding the highly publicized separation of Lions player Lachie and his wife, Jules.
In December, Jules revealed that her close friend Tess and Tess’s husband had been unfaithful, leading to the end of their marriage.
Reports now suggest another wife or girlfriend of a Brisbane Lions player saw Lachie in a private and awkward situation with Tess while they were in a car.
The Herald Sun reports that the woman who found the couple consulted with another AFL player’s partner before telling Jules what had happened.
After ending her relationship with Lachie, Jules has moved back to her home state of Western Australia with their two children, Piper and Freddie.
Lachie has recently moved into a new apartment in Brisbane while he considers his options: staying with the Lions team or moving back to Perth.
