Jules Neale has revealed she’s permanently removing a tattoo dedicated to her ex-partner, AFL star Lachie Neale.

In a video posted to Instagram on Sunday, the Perth-based influencer is seen getting a cursive ‘L’ letter on her wrist lasered off.

The caption reads: “Getting rid of what no longer serves us . . . even if it was meant to be permanent.”

The 36-year-old moved to Perth in recent months following her high-profile split from Brisbane Lions player Lachie Neale, whom she shares two young children with.

Their relationship broke down after Lachie allegedly had an affair with Jules’ best friend Tess Crosley.

Swirling speculation about the Neales’ marriage in December prompted the influencer to confirm they had split.

“I want to make it very clear that I am not ‘working through’ anything,” she said in an Instagram statement at the end of last year.

“I have been betrayed in the most unimaginable way. All I can do now is to to heal and do what’s best for my children.”

Since her dramatic break-up first went public, the influencer has said goodbye to being the supportive WAG on the sidelines and has stepped into the spotlight on her own.

Ms Neale attended Australian Fashion Week 2026 and has partnered with several fashion brands — even jetting off to the Maldives as part of a paid partnership with a travel company.

In May she also revealed she was picking up her hair tools again and would be working as a hairdresser at a salon in Mount Pleasant.

“Beautiful Perth clients I’m back on the tools! Doing what I love!,” she shared on her Jules Neale Hair Instagram account, adding she “can’t wait to get back in salon”.
