- Says trolls pushed her to breaking point before she turned pain into purpose
Chloe Pink has made a major announcement about her relationship with AFL defender Toby Pink, revealing the couple are actively trying to start a family after enduring a fresh wave of cruel online abuse.
The footy WAG, who has been relentlessly targeted by trolls over her appearance and fertility, confirmed the couple’s next chapter in a candid update, declaring: ‘We’ve been trying to have a baby and just waiting till we fall pregnant.’
The admission comes just days after Pink was again subjected to vile commentary online, with critics questioning her body and ability to conceive, prompting her to hit back publicly.
Despite the ongoing abuse, Pink has made it clear she and her husband remain united and focused on building a future together.
‘We’d love to have a family and we’d love to be parents,’ she said, outlining their shared goal as they approach their next milestone as a couple.
The announcement marks a significant moment for Pink, who has transformed her painful experience with online trolling into a powerful platform for advocacy.

After first being targeted following the release of her wedding photos last year, Pink revealed the emotional toll the abuse had taken.
‘I was in the deepest, darkest state of mind,’ she said.
‘I couldn’t comprehend the truth. There were hundreds of negative trolling comments about the way that I looked and about my body shape.
‘I wanted to hire a private investigator and I wanted to find out exactly who every single person was.’
The backlash was so intense it forced the couple to reshoot their wedding photos in an effort to reclaim the memory from the cruelty that overshadowed it.
What followed has been a dramatic shift, with Pink now using her platform to speak out against online bullying and support other women facing similar abuse.
‘I don’t care if people get sick of hearing me talk about it,’ she said.
‘I will talk about it forever – that’s the only way that change happens.
‘I always say silence is permission. We can’t afford to be silent anymore so I’ll keep talking about it.’
Her husband Toby has stood firmly by her side throughout the ordeal, previously describing himself as ‘proud’ of how she has handled the situation and turned it into something positive.
While AFL players are no strangers to criticism, the nature of the attacks directed at Pink has drawn widespread condemnation, with many supporters praising her resilience.
In recent weeks, she has doubled down on her advocacy, working with anti-bullying organisations and using her experience to raise awareness about the impact of online abuse.
Now, as she looks ahead to starting a family, Pink is determined not to let the noise of trolls define her life.
