The wife of a prominent Australian Rules footballer has taken a firm stand against online abuse, revealing she has contacted police after receiving a series of vile insults targeting her appearance.
Defiant Stand Against Vile Abuse
Chloe Pink, married to North Melbourne Kangaroos star Toby Pink, publicly shared the disturbing details of the harassment she endured. The 25-year-old explained that the situation escalated when trolls located her personal phone number.
In a powerful message posted to her Instagram story, she condemned those who called her with taunts of "hi piggy, oink oink". She described the behaviour as "harassment, cruel, disgusting and cowardly", issuing a stark warning to her tormentors.
"If you think this is funny, you need serious help," she wrote. "Hide behind 'no caller ID' all you want - rot in hell." She confirmed that the details of this specific message have now been formally handed over to police for investigation.
A Pattern of Persistent Targeting
This recent incident is sadly not an isolated one for Chloe Pink. She has faced frequent online hate, which came to a head in a particularly cruel way on her wedding day last year. Trolls subjected her to intense body-shaming, with one even crudely asking if her husband had "married an NRL prop forward".
The impact of this sustained abuse has been significant. The embattled WAG was so affected that she skipped the prestigious AFL Brownlow Medal ceremony last year. In the aftermath of her wedding, she even considered hiring a private investigator to deal with the onslaught.
Personal Life and Football Career
Chloe and Toby Pink have been together for more than seven years, having been childhood sweethearts. Toby Pink, her husband, is a professional Australian Rules footballer who joined North Melbourne in 2024.
Prior to his move, he spent three seasons on the Sydney Swans' rookie list. To date, he has played 47 matches for the North Melbourne Kangaroos at Arden St.
Chloe Pink's decision to speak out highlights the severe and very personal consequences of online trolling, moving beyond simple social media comments to intrusive and frightening real-world harassment.
