It comes after her previous account was suspended, for reasons unknown.<\/p>\n

Tess had previously used the platform to call out the horrible abuse<\/a> she was subjected to both online and in person.<\/p>\n

Now she is starting afresh though is still trying to recover her old account.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those wondering if this is me. Yes it is,\u201d she wrote in a post.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know what I did on my main account, but any tips to get it back would be appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tess has faced significant backlash amid links to Neale, and in March was forced to deactivate her Instagram account because of abuse.<\/p>\n

But she has also used the platform to defend herself from critics, previously hinting the public doesn\u2019t have the full picture of the alleged affair, cryptically noting that there is \u201calways another story\u201d in the caption of an Instagram post.<\/p>\n

She also told one user \u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s any of your business\u201d when asked about her alleged split from husband Ben, whom she has a son with.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile speculation is rife over Neale\u2019s future after his ex-wife Jules returned to Perth with their children, Piper and Freddie.<\/p>\n

Neale has been tipped to leave Brisbane Lions with his contract expiring at the end of the year.<\/p>\n

A switch to West Coat or a return to Freemantle could be on the cards, though Melbourne giants Collingwood have also reportedly entered the race <\/a>for his signature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tess Crosley has changed her name after being subject to vile abuse for her alleged role in the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":671738,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,134],"class_list":["post-671737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/671737","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=671737"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/671737\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/671738"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=671737"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=671737"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=671737"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
