Tess Crosley has taken down her Instagram account and replaced it with a new one under her maiden name, Tess Caesar.
The mum-of-one’s new account goes by the name tess.caesar and has been switched to private, unlike the previous version, which could be read by anybody before the change took place on Wednesday night.
At the time of writing she had 59 followers, including her husband Ben and two of his close friends, Tom Bennallack and Seth Mutton.
Crosley said she made the switch because ‘my main account keeps getting hacked’ amid the continuing fallout from her alleged role in Jules and Lachie Neale’s marriage breakdown.
Details of the split first emerged late last year, with reports alleging Neale had been seen in a compromising position in a car with Crosley, who had previously been part of the couple’s close social circle.
The 30-year-old is still going by Tess Crosley on TikTok, where she has almost 55,000 followers.

Last month, Crosley used Instagram to make an emotional plea for people to leave her son out of the aftermath of the scandal surrounding the Neales.
In an Instagram story, she singled out a person who insulted her in public when she was out with her child.
‘I want to make this very clear, it is never acceptable for anyone to approach a stranger in public and make derogatory comments or (aim) abuse at them, especially when they are simply trying to care for their child’s needs,’ Crosley’s post began.
‘My child does not deserve to be exposed to that kind of behaviour. No child does.
‘While I navigate my own challenges, my priority remains protecting and shielding my children from unnecessary hostility and cruelty in everyday situations.’
That statement came after Crosley shared another social post on April 27 which intrigued many of her followers.
The series of images on Instagram included a photo taken at a bar, accompanied by a caption featuring a love-heart and a spade emoji.
The post immediately drew attention as the location appeared identical to a venue previously shared by Lachie Neale in his own social media posts.

The same band appears to be playing in both images, with Neale tagged in Crosley’s image by one of her followers.
The coincidence sparked fresh intrigue surrounding the pair, despite Neale’s camp previously denying the pair remain in contact.
Crosley, a former Mormon missionary, has remained largely silent throughout the fallout from the high-profile Neale split, but her social media activity has continued to generate discussion.
Her most recent video on TikTok showed her holding her young son Beau while wearing leggings and a jacket along with the caption ‘”Mummy” first but sometimes…’
The vision then switches to her wearing a revealing top and mini-skirt with the caption ‘Mamiiiiii’, which is slang for an attractive woman.
This week, Jules Neale revealed she is looking to buy a home in Perth where she can raise the son and daughter she shares with Lachie in another sign that there’s no way back from their split.
‘It’s the beginning of our next chapter,’ Jules told News Corp.
‘We’re still living with my parents at the moment, which has been really nice.’
