Tess Crosley has sent a very pointed message to her husband Ben in the wake of the Lachie and Jules Neale affair.

The mother-of-one, 30, was thrust into the centre of the drama over the Christmas break after Jules publicly declared the end of her marriage to AFL star Lachie, 32, pointing the finger of blame at her former friend.

While neither Ben nor Tess has commented publicly on the status of their marriage, she was seen packing moving boxes at the couple's swanky Brisbane home in February.

Ben took to Instagram on Sunday to share a carousel of images that showed him enjoying a day out at the Hamilton Island Golf Club with friends, captioned cryptically: 'Closaaah'

His idyllic golfing getaway drew a flurry of comments from followers, including Tess.

She chimed in with a pinched-fingers emoji that represents the Italian hand gesture, meaning 'what do you want?'

The iconic gesture is often used to convey exasperation, annoyance or disbelief.

Tess then took a not-so-subtle swipe at a follower of Ben's who jumped in to ask Tess about the status of their relationship.

The commenter asked: 'Did he forgive you? I'm confused, no offence,' and Tess delivered a blunt reply.

'Don't think that's any of your business,' she responded.

It seems that while the drama has destroyed Jules' friendship with Tess, the same cannot be said of her relationship with Ben.

Jules was one of the followers who gave Ben's post a 'like', and it's not the first time she's shown him support on social media.

Earlier this month, Ben shared another carousel of images on Instagram - the first showing him holding up a camera to snap a selfie.

It was captioned with a simple horse emoji and also included images of Ben taking a swim and playing with his young son.

Jules' account appeared among the 2,000-odd users who 'liked' the post.

Ben and Jules have remained friendly on social media, as the pair navigate the aftermath of their battered marriages.

It comes after Tess recently hinted that she may be back on the market, after being spotted on the celebrity dating app, Raya.

Her listing is accompanied by glamorous selfies, including one in which Tess has blonde hair and is wearing a skimpy bikini.

Tess' job description reads 'I'm a mammii' while her simple biography states, 'Tell me about you first x'.

Raya is the go-to app for high-profile people and celebrities to find love.

The likes of Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck, Demi Lovato and Olivia Rodrigo have all previously been seen on the site.

Tess was hit with a media storm after Jules told her to stop 'embarrassing' herself and delete photos of former Brisbane Lions co-captain Lachie from her Instagram.

It seems that while the drama has caused the destruction of Jules' friendship with Tess, the same cannot be said of her relationship with Ben.

Jules was one of the followers that gave Ben's post a 'like', and it's not the first time she's shown him support on social media.

She has so far refused to comment on speculation that she was the 'other woman' in the Neales' split.

Tess has also not confirmed the status of her marriage to Ben, who said in January she was no longer living at their marital home, just prior to Tess being spotted carting removal boxes from the home.

While Tess has stayed silent about her alleged role in the Neales' marriage breakdown, Tess' family members have spoken out in her defence.

The saga erupted over the Christmas break when Jules publicly declared the end of her marriage to Lachie, pointing the finger of blame at her former friend Tess, and moved from Brisbane to Perth with her two children.

By January 2, amid intense media scrutiny, Lachie had stepped down as co-captain of the Lions.

'While I will not go into specifics, I can say that I have let my family down and I apologise for my actions, which have hurt those closest to me. For that, I am deeply sorry,' he told reporters at the time.
'I accept this as a consequence of my actions and I need to focus on rebuilding trust with Jules as the future well-being of our children remains our number one priority.'

Jules allegedly discovered the affair after a fellow Brisbane WAG spotted Lachie and Tess together in a car.
