CEO of Sweaty Betty PR Roxy Jacenko has fired back at critics who were questioning the timing her recent cancer diagnosis.
Jackenko has been in the headlines in recent months due to her husband, Oliver Curtis being sentenced to two years jail for insider trading.
“It is what it is. I’m unfortunately the person who has got the cancer, my husband is in jail, and I’m now a single mother,” Jacenko snapped after reporter Allison Langdon said the timing has raised eyebrows.

“I don’t really give a f*** what they think on my timing.”
In the episode, which will air this Sunday, Langdon asked the former Celebrity Apprentice star whether she has an image problem, after she was criticised for drawing attention to herself on social media wearing expensive outfits to court during Curtis’ trial.
“There’s a problem isn’t there when you announce that you have breast cancer and people’s first reaction is cynicism,” said Langdon.

Too which Jacenko replied, “You’ve got too much time on your hands if you say that.”
“It’s normal people out there,” Langdon said in response.
“Well they’re not normal, Alison. Change your friends,” Jacenko snapped back.

“It’s not something I’d ever thought I’d face,” she admits. “I can’t believe I’m actually in this position”.
“I sure as hell don’t want to let down the children. There is me and only me, so I’ve got an obligation to all of those people to keep running, in heels.”
