Among her property developments is a multi-million dollar apartment block in Melbourne's Footscray, first reported by the Herald Sun, but the star declined to comment on the reports.

She also told the Herald Sun that while she enjoyed her time as RHOM's feisty fashionista, the show 'isn't for me anymore' and that it's 'important to leave on a high.'

Meanwhile, Real Housewives of Melbourne fan favourite Gamble Breaux has expressed her disappointment at the news of Pettifleur's departure.
