Roxy Jacenko has opened up for the first time since her husband, Oliver Curtis, was released from prison on Friday.
Roxy, 37, made the brief comments while out on a coffee run in Sydney on Monday.
“Roxy, is it good to have Oliver home?” a Daily Mail photographer asked the PR maven.
She replied: “Yes, the children are very happy.”
When asked specifically if she was “happy,” the publicist responded: “Yes, of course.”
The mother to Pixie, 5, and Hunter, 3, was later asked whether she and her husband of five years were “still together,” a question which she refused to answer on two occasions.

Oliver was released from Cooma Correctional Centre last Friday at around 8:40am after a year in jail, but wife Roxy wasn’t waiting at the gates as expected.
The white-collar criminal was escorted through the large pack of waiting media by a personal security guard into the back of a waiting black range rover with dark tinted windows.
Awaiting media asked how he felt to be free after a year in jail for insider trading, as well as questioning his feelings on the pictures which emerged of his wife kissing her ex Nabil Gazal, but Curtis didn’t make any comments.
Oliver was released from Cooma Correctional Centre last Friday.
In April, Jacenko told the Wentworth Courier that she would “absolutely” be at the gates – a reality that didn’t eventuate.
“The kids are looking forward to having their father back. Remember Pixie hasn’t seen Oli for 12 months, so it’s very important we’re there,” she told the paper.
“[Pixie] will think she’s picking him up from work. She doesn’t know any different.”
The stockbroker was charged and convicted for the $1.43 million he secured through trades that were based on illegal tip-offs given to him by his childhood friend and former Orion Asset Management employee John Hartman.
He had been sentenced to two years jail, but was released after just one year on good behaviour.
