Tom Silvagni’s long-time girlfriend has been spotted for the first time since he was sentenced to six years in jail for rape.<\/p>\n

Model Alannah Iaconis visited\u00a0Silvagni’s high-profile parents, AFL great Stephen and TV presenter Jo, at their Balwyn North home in Melbourne<\/a>‘s east on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Dressed in black pants and a white shirt, the 23-year-old Miss World Australia Victoria 2025 winner arrived at the house at 10am on Saturday and spent most of the day holed up inside with the Silvagnis as she tried to avoid the cameras outside.<\/p>\n

The Balwyn North house was where her boyfriend Tom twice assaulted a young woman in January 2024 after sneaking into the guest room where she was sleeping.<\/p>\n

He then sexually assaulted her while pretending to be her boyfriend – his then-close friend Anthony\u00a0LoGiudice.<\/p>\n

Silvagni, 23, was recently found guilty of two counts of rape and ordered to serve a minimum three years and three months in jail<\/a> before he would be eligible for parole.<\/p>\n

Photos taken by the Daily Mail on Saturday show Ms Iaconis – who only last month declared she was ‘feeling grateful, inspired and more motivated than ever’ – exiting a black vehicle before waiting to be let through the security gates.<\/p>\n

Silvagni’s older brother and AFL<\/a>\u00a0star, Jack, arrived later at the house and told reporters that Ms Iaconis would not be coming out.<\/p>\n

Jack Silvagni later attended his parents’ home and admitted his family were ‘doing it hard’<\/p>\n

‘She knows you’re here… and she\u2019s not going to say anything to you guys,’ the new St Kilda recruit said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘The family [are] doing it hard.’<\/p>\n

When asked by Daily Mail whether Ms Iaconis’ presence meant that she still supports Tom, Jack said it wasn’t for him to comment on.<\/p>\n

\u2018That\u2019s for you guys to work out, but yeah. I mean, it\u2019s Saturday arvo, you guys don\u2019t want to be here, we don\u2019t want you here. They\u2019re not going to come out,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘You guys do what you got to do, but from our perspective if you guys could move on that would be great. We\u2019re just still trying to rally together. I get you guys have got a job to do.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ms Iaconis has stood by her boyfriend since the accusations first came to light over a year ago and even took the stand in his defence.<\/p>\n

She has maintained her public silence on Silvagni and the trial, and no evidence of their relationship is featured on her social media.<\/p>\n

However, the model drew some criticism online after she was spotted posting about brand events she’d attended at the time\u00a0Silvagni’s ill-fated suppression order was lifted and he was publicly named.<\/p>\n

\"'We\u2019re <\/p>\n

‘We\u2019re just still trying to rally together,’ Tom’s eldest brother Jack (pictured) told Daily Mail<\/p>\n

The Silvagni family managed to keep their name out of the headlines for more than a year because of a court-imposed non-publication order protecting their youngest son and the family.<\/p>\n

However the court lifted that order and Melbourne scuttlebutt was confirmed.<\/p>\n

Jo Silvagni first appeared on TV in the early 1990s as a co-host on Sale of the Century from 1991 to 1993 and later fronted Channel Nine’s lifestyle program Looking Good.<\/p>\n

She later fronted TV ads for Zoot Review, speaking to Australian celebrities who spruiked products such as Cold Power, Ski yoghurt and Nurofen.<\/p>\n

For more than a decade, Jo has also been one of the public faces of Chemist Warehouse, which is holding fire on a decision about the partnership in the wake of her son’s conviction<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She continues to appear in TV ads for the well-known brand, although they have taken down some videos from their sites.<\/p>\n

Stephen is recruiting manager at St Kilda, which has also just recruited his son Jack, who has crossed from Carlton, where the Silvagni name is one of the club’s most famous.<\/p>\n

Tom’s grandfather Serge Silvagni was a premiership player with the Blues, and Stephen played more than 300 games and was named the AFL’s greatest ever fullback in the Team of the Century.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tom Silvagni had tried to convince his victim she had sex with Mr LoGiudice’s son Anthony on the night of his attack<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The jury heard the victim had consensual sex with Anthony in an upstairs bedroom.<\/p>\n

At 1.58am, Mr LoGiudice left in an Uber, arriving at his home at 2.09am.<\/p>\n

Silvagni then deceived the woman, falsely claiming Anthony’s Uber had been cancelled and that he would be returning upstairs.<\/p>\n

Instead, Silvagni entered the darkened bedroom himself, climbed into the bed and impersonated his mate before digitally raping the woman twice.<\/p>\n

Silvagni’s mum Jo – the former co-host of prime-time game show, Sale of the Century – also copped backlash this week after she was caught on camera lashing out at a reporter.<\/p>\n

The Chemist Warehouse ambassador was seen racing out of a Melbourne court on Wednesday with her husband as the pair tried to dodge questions.<\/p>\n

\u2018How do you feel about the sentence that was handed down?\u2019 she was asked by Sky News Australia reporter Georgie Dickerson.<\/p>\n

Jo, 55, pushed Dickerson to the side and told her to, \u2018Go away!\u2019<\/p>\n

She also lashed out when asked, \u2018Will you be appealing the sentence?,\u2019 replying, \u2018Do your job!\u2019<\/p>\n

Days earlier, she comforted her husband Stephen as he broke down in tears outside of court as he indicated that his son would appeal the guilty verdict.<\/p>\n

\u2018Our son continues to maintain his innocence, and we stand firmly behind him,\u2019 Mr Silvagni said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Our goal is to clear his name and bring him home.\u2019<\/p>\n

The couple drew criticism online after it was revealed that they had chosen to not be in court as their son\u2019s victim read out an emotional victim impact statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tom Silvagni’s long-time girlfriend has been spotted for the first time since he was sentenced to six years…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":360869,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[638,64,63,100,647,44,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-360868","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-afl","9":"tag-au","10":"tag-australia","11":"tag-dailymail","12":"tag-melbourne","13":"tag-news","14":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=360868"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360868\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/360869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=360868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=360868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=360868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
