Her name was conspicuously left off the guest list at her former employer David Jones star-studded collections launch earlier this month.
And on Friday, Jesinta Campbell took a veiled swipe at the high-end department store, claiming neither DJ’s nor Myer could afford to work with her and husband, AFL star Lance ‘Buddy’ Franklin.
‘I don’t know if department stores have the budget anymore, to be quite frank,’ Jesinta told The Daily Telegraph.

Replaced with supermodel Victoria Lee in December 2017 after two years as ambassador for David Jones, Jesinta, 27, is currently working with luxury store, Harrolds.

Earlier this month, Jennifer, 34, took to Instagram to make the announcement that she will retire from working with the department store.
The former Miss Universe wrote: ‘It was simply time to move on and Myer will always hold a special place in my heart.’
