They are one of Brisbane’s most recognisable power couples, but what do Margaux and Corey Parker really get up to when they’re at home?

They are one of Brisbane’s most recognisable power couples, but what do Margaux and Corey Parker really get up to when they’re not in the public eye?

During an exclusive peek inside their beautifully renovated home in Brisbane’s south, a few home truths came to light.

While Corey’s finesse on the football field is well known, his obsessive compulsive behaviour may come as a surprise to some fans.

As the domestic one in the household, the former Broncos legend claims the kitchen as his domain, with everything in its place — including the pantry, which is organised meticulously and every jar labelled.

“Everything has to be in rows of threes,” he said.

Margaux’s passion lies in the bedroom — well, the master suite’s walk-in wardrobe and dressing room to be exact.

Here, hangs the wedding dress she wore when the pair renewed their vows on their 15th wedding anniversary in 2023, her first baby bag for daughter Memphis, who is now 14, and her beloved collection of sequinned jackets.

“I just love comfort,” she said. “My body shape’s changed over such a long period of time and I hold onto pieces thinking; ‘I’ll get back into that’.

“I love a sequinned jacket — I’ve got about five or six there.”

Also on display is the first designer handbag Corey bought her.

“He really saved up his allowance when he was overseas playing for Australia in the World Cup,” Margaux said.

“He went into the Louis Vuitton store in London and I think he almost died. He turned around and walked the other way!”

With four kids and both now working as breakfast radio hosts, life is hectic to say the least — especially when it comes to washing.

Luckily, the laundry is huge and boasts multiple drying racks, where school uniforms hang ready to go.

Margaux says they do at least three loads of washing a day — and that’s not including the sheets and towels.

In the hallway, what looks like a linen cupboard is full to the brim with kids’ shoes of every size and colour imagineable lining the shelves.

“How do you know you’re a family of four kids who play lots of sport? Well, welcome to the shoe cupboard!

“It doesn’t smell real flash though.”

Inside the linen cupboard are dozens of kids’ shoes. Picture: Nigel Hallett.

The pool house has been converted into Corey’s ‘man cave’, complete with a bar, pool table, and a host of Broncos and sporting memorabilia, ranging from signed jerseys to footy boots.

Highlights include a Valentino Rossi racing helmet, his premiership winning trophies, his Wally Lewis Best on Field Winning Medal, and the last game playing boots of Israel Folau, Shane Webcke, and Darren Lockyer.

Unfortunately, the Broncos memorabilia won’t be sold with the house. Picture: Nigel Hallett.

Unfortunately for prospective buyers, the footy merchandise won’t be part of the sale when the pair bid farewell to the home they have spent the past two years renovating.

The couple bought the five-bedroom house in 2023 and have since given it a signficant makeover, completely renovating the three bathrooms, and highlighting the multiple indoor and outdoor living areas.

“We have decided that our work here is done in restoring this timeless beauty and we are ready for the next project to sink our teeth into,” Margaux said.
