Jules Neale covers Lachie tattoo after Melbourne Cup
Jules plans to cover up ex-husband Lachie's initial tattoo after he chose Collingwood over a West Coast Eagles contract.
Jules Neale is moving forward from her split with AFL star Lachie Neale by covering up a tattoo of his initial on her hand. Jules revealed the plans at Melbourne Cup, where she also discussed Lachie's career move to Collingwood instead of returning to Western Australia with West Coast Eagles.
The West Coast contract offered roughly approximately 900,000 per season over three years. Jules said she would have preferred him to stay closer to their kids but accepted his choice.
She's also getting a matching rose tattoo with her brother. She said the rose symbolises growing through life together.
Jules plans a spiritual 11:11 design on her arm. The couple separated at the end of 2025 after seven years of marriage; Jules has since moved to Perth with their two children.
