Qantas CEO Alan Joyce’s new Mosman mansion egged and toilet papered

The Qantas CEO’s neighbours have been quick to deny responsibility for the apparent attack, which has now been referred to police – along with CCTV footage.

In what could be the biggest drama Mosman residents have faced since Sonia Kruger battled to finish the outdoor kitchen on her three-storey mansion, Qantas CEO Alan Joyce has had his newly purchased harbourside mansion strewn with toilet paper and what appears to be eggs.

But whoever did the deed may have been caught on CCTV cameras at the front of the sprawling 15-room home, which sits on the harbourfront over three levels.

The incident has been reported to NSW Police for investigation, and footage from the security system at the residence will be provided.

Mr Joyce bought the waterfront home with his partner Shane Lloyd for an eye-watering $19 million earlier this year after his salary plummeted to just $2 million last year, up slightly from $1.75 million in 2020. Before the pandemic, Mr Joyce made about $10 million a year.

The couple had previously purchased a penthouse in the Cove apartment complex for $4.5 million in 2009 and a Palm Beach holiday home for $5.3 million in 2015.

Despite splashing the cash on the property which comes with a pool, a wine cellar and a home cinema, the couple have not been seen at all around the home since the purchase.

That’s according to neighbours in the street who were shocked to hear of the apparent toilet paper fuelled vandalism when contacted by The Daily Telegraph on Tuesday afternoon.

“We’re innocent, we have been in Bowral for the past few days,” one neighbour who lives up the road said.

Another said they were disappointed to not have seen the corporate titan at all in the neighbourhood since the purchase of the home but said there had been no shortage of drama in the waterfront enclave.

“There was a big gas leak a couple of doors down a couple of days ago … it is an interesting street,” he said.

“We haven’t seen him … We heard they were going to spend $3 million changing the colours of god knows what.”

Another neighbour dismissed that as just the Mosman rumour mill in overdrive – as per usual – but said another house a few doors down was undergoing a significant overhaul.

“People are just seeing things and thinking, ah, Alan’s doing this,” he said.

“There has been nobody at the house. Put it this way, I haven’t seen any cars there.”

So who is the toilet paper bandit?

Mosman locals were adamant it wasn’t anyone from around their neck of the woods. A Qantas spokeswoman said they would not be commenting.

“I hope they leave him alone,” one neighbour said.

“I can’t see it being anyone from around the neighbourhood because nobody has any objection to him moving in there.”
