Jesinta Franklin debuted her new look while appearing at a Lancôme skincare event in Melbourne on Wednesday.

The 33-year-old has a fresh bob and looked absolutely radiant as she showed off her updated look.

And the AFL WAG says she needed a change as she had been in a rut for some time while raising two young children.

“Lulu is four and a half and Rocky is three and a half, and I’ve started to feel like myself (again), so I wanted something that reflected how good and fresh I feel now, so I cut my hair,” she told the magazine. Herald of the Sun on Friday.

“I was stuck for a while, in the sense that every day you strive to reach the goal,” she continued.

“That’s how I describe motherhood, it’s like the most amazing, relentless experience ever, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows all in one, but it’s definitely getting easier.”

The model welcomed daughter Tullulah in 2020 and one-year-old son Rocky in 2021 with husband Lance ‘Buddy’ Franklin, within the same year.

She previously admitted that motherhood was difficult for her at first.

Jesinta told Stellar in 2022 that she feels like she’s “finally starting to enjoy” being a mother after “an intense period.”

“I actually feel like I’m finally starting to really enjoy motherhood. And it’s not that I didn’t enjoy it before, or that I didn’t love my children or that they didn’t bring me so much joy and love,” she explained.

“I felt like I had been in the trenches for a good two years. It was an intense period in my life and I was in a state of great stress.”

She added: “I felt like I was in survival mode for a long time. Now, I can’t wait for them to wake up… I miss them when they go to nap.”

She's best known for her long brunette locks (pictured in March), but has now cut her chocolate-brown mane into a short, choppy bob.

“Lulu is four and a half and Rocky is three and a half, and I’ve started to feel like myself (again), so I wanted something that reflected how good and fresh I feel now, so I cut my hair,” she said.

She confessed that both she and Buddy have had a hard time spending quality time together due to their parenting duties.

“A lot of people don’t talk about how difficult it is for a married couple to have children,” she said.

“We haven’t really had much time alone without the kids, but we are a very close family.”

She continued: “It’s definitely not perfect, but we try to focus on being a team and facing challenges together,” she said of her and Buddy.

Jesinta also praised her husband for being a proactive and loving father to their children.

“Bud is very active and supportive, and I really missed that when he was gone. I’m very lucky to have a partner who is such a wonderful father,” she said, referring to when he was away during football season.
