Roxy Jacenko says it’s ‘easier to run six businesses’ than to face ‘boring existence’ of raising two children: ‘There’s only so many hours Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Prada are open’

Roxy Jacenko made it clear on Sunday she was not born for ‘housewifery’, and finds it much ‘easier’ to run six businesses. 

The PR maven, 44, said she commends stay-at-home mothers ‘because I did it for six months and f**k me that would have to be the hardest job’. 

Sharing two children—Pixie, 13, and Hunter, 10—with her husband Oliver Curtis, Roxy said she found staying at home ‘f**king boring’, reported The Sunday Telegraph.  

‘There’s f**king nothing to do here, nothing. Housewifery is not for me. Like, let’s be real. I have shopped to the point where I can’t shop anymore,’ she said.

‘Yes, Ministry of Talent [her talent agency business] ticks along and I work on that every day—but it’s not enough. 

‘I’ve still got too much time in the day, and there’s only so many hours that Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Prada are open.’

Roxy said it’s ‘easier for me to go to work and run six businesses than it is to look after two children’, adding she’d rather ‘run a country’ than help with homework. 

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Roxy for further comment.

It comes after Roxy confirmed in September she has made a return to publicity and Sydney two years after stepping down as director of Sweaty Betty.  

‘I am returning to Sweaty Betty PR and reopening the doors for selected clients,’ Roxy told Daily Mail Australia.

‘Learning to be able to step back and enjoy life beyond just work has been rewarding BUT also awfully boring!’

‘I wasn’t cut out for the housewife life!’

She later shared the news to her Instagram followers with a not-so-cryptic hint as to what she’s doing next.

‘November 2022 I decided I quit PR. Must have been a mid life crisis… lol today I’m back and ohhhhh it’s like the old days…’ she captioned the post.

‘I have worked since I was 14-years-old,’ Roxy continued.

‘It’s all I know and to be frank, I’m good at it, so it’s time to get going again.’

She’ll continue to be based in Singapore, but said she’ll begin commuting to Sydney for one week out of every month to operate Sweaty Betty from its eastern suburbs offices.

‘I’ll be based in Singapore with my family but do a week a month in Sydney at my Double Bay HQ. With a mere 2-hour time difference working out of Singapore when I am not in Sydney is very feasible.’

Roxy set off to Singapore with her family in 2023, resolute she was never going to return to Sydney.

‘I don’t have any plans to come back. I’m sorry to say,’ she told Daily Mail Australia earlier this year.

‘I love Australia. Don’t get me wrong. It’s so nice to look out at the ocean and have that opportunity. But I love being so close to all different places.’

‘Since being in Singapore, I’ve travelled to Thailand, to Vietnam and to India. We’re so far away from everything in Australia. All of a sudden my life has become a lot more colourful. I can explore and do different stuff.’
