Sydney eyebrow queen Kristin Fisher has slammed rumors she was the ‘other woman’ behind power couple Shelley and Anthony Sullivan’s shocking marriage break-up.
The MCoBeauty founder and her accountant husband of seven years split two weeks ago after an explosive argument.
The dispute led to Anthony leaving the country and heading to the US, while his wife moved into the five-star InterContinental hotel in Double Bay.
Reports have wrongly suggested that Kristin, a Double Bay business owner and mother of two, was involved in the split, which she says is “unequivocally false.”
“This is absolutely false,” he told Daily Mail Australia.
“I’m tired of being clickbait in all these stories and having to defend myself against something I have nothing, and I mean NOTHING, to do with.
Sydney eyebrow queen Kristin Fisher has shut down rumors that she was involved in the marital split between eastern suburbs power couple Shelley and Anthony Sullivan.
Fisher (pictured left) said Shelley (pictured right) was the one who pressured her to clear her name.
“The truth is that I’ve only been with one person lately,” he added.
Kristin, who has made headlines over the years, said there is no bad blood between her and her longtime friend and beauty guru.
“I was with her yesterday,” Kristin said.
“She (Shelley) is the one who has pressured me to clear my name because this rumor is not true, along with all the other stories my name is dragged into,” Kristin said.
“Tall poppy syndrome is very much alive in this country; the rumors are getting more scandalous every day.”
Kristin’s comments come a day after Shelley was seen being comforted by her mother, Kerrie, in Sydney’s financial district, where her multi-million dollar business is based.
The couple looked visibly distraught as they shared a tender moment amid the breakup of their marriage.
Shelley told Daily Mail Australia she would not comment on the breakdown of the marriage.
“Shelley is absolutely devastated by the separation,” said an insider.
“Anthony was her rock, she is devastated; her marriage was everything to her.”
The businesswoman’s close-knit group of friends is doing everything they can to support her.
Shelley Sullivan and her husband Anthony are pictured at her 50th birthday party last July.
Shelley was seen in Sydney’s financial district being comforted by her mother.
The couple looked visibly distraught as they shared a tender moment.
The couple abruptly separated two weeks ago, with both the beauty mogul and her accountant husband moving out of their marital home in Bellevue Hill.
“She has an incredible network that just embraced her right now,” the friend added.
Anthony is an accountant and CEO of Quantaco, which provides financial services to companies in the hospitality sector.
The couple had known each other for years and were friends before they started dating, and later married in a lavish Point Piper ceremony in 2016.
The couple have since moved out of their $11,000-a-week heritage-listed Leura rental mansion in Bellevue Hill.
Shelley made her mark in the 1990s with her modeling and talent agency before launching her thriving ‘masstige’ beauty brand ModelCo in 2016.
Masstige is a retail term that refers to a product that is marketed as “prestige” or premium but is actually mass-produced and affordable.
The beauty boss launched her brand’s Tan Airbrush In a Can more than 20 years ago and still sells a bottle every 36 seconds worldwide.
He is also credited with introducing the world to the first heated eyelash curlers.
ModelCo has overtaken legacy beauty brands such as L’OrĂ©al, Maybelline and Rimmel in the Australian market.
The likes of Kendall Jenner, Hailey Baldwin, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Elyse Knowles have repped the internationally famous line.
In 2022, a large Australian conglomerate approached MCoBeauty and acquired a portion of the business.
The brand is on track to generate $247 million in fiscal 2024.
