Skye Wheatley appears to confirm split from Lachy Waugh amid drunken livestream and cheating allegations

Australian influencer Skye Wheatley appears to have signaled a split from long-time partner Lachy Waugh, during a drunken Instagram Live this week in which she addressed cheating rumors that had swirled around their relationship. Wheatley, 31, is currently holidaying with her children at an Airbnb on the Gold Coast, a setting that has been noted by followers after Lachy, 34, largely disappeared from her social feeds for more than two months.

In the livestream, a fan asked whether Lachy had cheated, and Wheatley replied, I don't know, maybe. Her sister Kahla, who was watching the stream, weighed in in the comments, saying she did not believe Lachy would cheat. The moment underscored the strain surrounding the couple, with further commentary from Wheatley's close circle. Skye's friend Tori later posted a TikTok that appeared to reference the breakup, writing, When you're a girl's girl, so now I've got more beef with her ex than she ever did. He really thought he could talk to her crazy, but forgot her besties from the west and I don't let s**t slide, before tagging the post breakup rumour. Skye appeared to acknowledge the post when she commented, That's ma girl.

The following day, Lachy shared a telling Instagram post that added fuel to the rumor mill: a screenshot from a clip showing Skye being chatted up by two men during a TikTok Live, with the caption, Classic, doesn't take long. The image was later circulated by influencer watchdog accounts and referenced in coverage of Wheatley and Waugh's relationship. The clip itself showed Skye and two female friends engaging with two men, Wise Gentleman and Ryan J Stewart, who flirted with the group during the chat. The episode cemented a sense among followers that the relationship was under strain, even as neither party publicly declared a split.

In response to ongoing questions, Wheatley did not definitively confirm or deny the split during the live stream posting. She told curious followers that she has a personal life outside of Instagram and that some things are better left unsaid. Believe it or not I actually do have a personal life outside of Instagram, she said, adding that she had become better at guarding aspects of her private life with age. She also described herself as an oversharer but indicated that certain matters should remain private. Daily Mail has reached out to Wheatley and Waugh for comment.

The timing of the rumors fits a broader pattern followers had observed earlier in the month: Lachy had not appeared in Wheatley's posts for more than two months, and recent content had focused on their children rather than the couple. Fans noted Lachy’s absence and speculated about a potential rift, a narrative reinforced by his own social-media activity, including a post that highlighted Skye’s interactions with other men in a separate clip. On balance, the posts have fueled a cautious interpretation that the couple may be navigating a real separation, even as neither has issued a formal statement. The Daily Mail coverage emphasizes the lack of a clear answer from either side, while detailing the online exchanges that have kept followers engaged in the evolving storyline of their personal lives.
