Father-of-two and Roxy Jacenko’s hubby, Oliver Curtis, was jailed last June for insider trading but on Friday, he’ll leave Cooma Correctional Centre as a free man.

And his wife knows just how to celebrate.

Fairfax report that the 37-year-old shared her homecoming plans during her In Conversation event in Melbourne on Tuesday, admitting her children Pixie, five, and Hunter, three, can’t wait to see their dad.

“It will be amazing for the children and I am just excited to see their faces when they see him,” she reportedly told the audience at the seminar.

The couple in happier times.

For Pixie and Hunter, who have been told their father is in China for work, there’s not long to go now, with Roxy saying that Pixie is “marking off the days” on her calendar ahead of the family reunion.

While Roxy said she was planning a “spread” for her husband’s return at their North Bondi apartment on Saturday, which would be filled with family and friends.

While the PR maven made no mention of whether she’ll welcome him at the gates on Friday – it will be business as usual for Oliver.

He’ll go to “his office on Monday,” she said. “No handcuffs.”

The mum-of-two described the aftermath of the past year, which included her husband’s incarceration and battling breast cancer as “a bit of a train wreck to be honest.”

“I have had to be the man and the woman of the house … I have had to make sure the bills are paid, that my kids’ school fees are paid and everything is done,” she said.

“I’m basically a hostage in my own home. In the evening when I come home I have to stay home.”

On top of everything, in April, she was snapped locking lips with her old flame Nabil Gazal.

But for the entrepreneur, for now she’s taking each day at time – focusing on what matters most to her, the kids.

Last week, her daughter Pixie was hospitalised after falling ill.

“Poor little monkey [was] feeling so poorly.”

At the time, one of Roxy’s workers from her PR team told the Daily Mail, “We aren’t sure as yet what is wrong with Pixie. She has been doubled over with abdominal pain since Friday afternoon so Roxy took her to Sydney Children’s Hospital on Sunday morning with Hunter.”

On Sunday the mother-of-two told her fans, “Life certainly never runs to plan – what timing. Such a brave little Pixie.”

Before sharing a positive update, “Thanks for the lovely messages, Pix is resting at home waiting for more info on what the problem is ❤️”
