Pip Edwards breaks silence on Michael Clarke scandal

The woman at the centre of Michael Clarke's alleged cheating scandal has spoken candidly about the dramatic events in Noosa. 

The P.E. Nation fashion designer made a stunning appearance at the Australian Open on Saturday ahead of the women's final, where she was grilled about the now-viral fight. 

Edwards told The Daily Telegraph, “It is definitely not my circus and I would like to say the carnival is over.”

“The carnival is over and, to be honest, the focus for me is on the global expansion of P.E. Nation."

“The carnival is done.”  

A video of Clarke fighting with his girlfriend Jade Yarbrough went viral, in which Yarbrough accused the cricketer of cheating on her with his ex-girlfriend Edwards. 

After the scandal made headlines, photos emerged of Edwards at the pool, and some media outlets published them with a headline reading, “revenge body”.

Pip quickly dispelled the sexist headlines, stating, “I have had this body for a very long time.”

“I work on my body. It is part of my mental health. It is part of my stability. It is part of how I conquer my day. I live and breathe what I do. I thought that (headline) was a very interesting take."

“As a woman in business, as a single mother, as someone who has worked very hard her whole life, the aesthetics of me are literally the cherry on top. It is the iceberg underneath that is what I am doing."

“First and foremost I am a mother and a businesswoman, I just come with a body."

“It is not out of revenge, it is not out of anything other than being healthy, fit and active.”
